Contact from VW UK re: Estimated BWs etc...

I think we should all collectively turn up outside the MK headquarters with pitch forks and torches. Then angrily demand answers about our GTI's and GTD's. Perhaps even get mildly violent and really loud.

Bear, as the man who has led this VW mutiny from the start, I believe you should be our ringleader and megaphone operator.

My daughter quickly learned that spitting her dummy out didn't get the results she wanted!   I'll sit back and hope somebody records your mob-efforts!

There is a 'pecking order' of dealers so some get priority over others which seems to be what the first post is saying. Eventually found that out when my MKVI was delayed. Suppose the same is still happening so VW UK must take the blame!!

Hi new member here, been lurking a while and reading everything posted regarding BW dates and alike.
I ordered a GTI with pp on 19/04/13, the dealer told us at the time we were the first to put pen to paper on a gti in that dealership, (lookers teeside) 2 weeks later I changed my colour choice to carbon grey. no other changes were made. Ive been in touch with my dealer over the past week trying to get a BW confirmed, the only answer I could get was it would be before september. I called vwuk yesterday and they told me they would reply with a confirmed BW. to her word she called today to tell me I had a confirmed BW 24. 10/6/13 to be exact. hopefully i will have the car before july, fingers crossed.

Baza: Did you get a good deal with Lookers? I did consider going down there but they were poor on my p/x and discount on the new one last time.

Aye! If mine truly is a build week 26 i'm expecting a tracker update before Monday.
Just got in from the pub and watching Family Guy, at least the Griffins don't let you down!

Wow!!!! Great news Baza.... What's it showing on the online tracker?  Is it a pretty straightforward spec or did you load up on options?

You must be one of the lucky few on here to get a definite confirmation! Couldn't be more pleased for you.

I'm so desperate for mine i'm considering a "proposal" for Mick if my dad's is a DBP and it's VW UK's fault, and as a confirmed build they cannot change it - for me to take my dad's DBP DSG for the same price as a manual and let him modify my (as yet) unconfirmed build week order to suit my dad (add DSG). Otherwise if his is a DBP DSG and they're not able to change the order at this stage then they'll have an order which isn' tsuitable, but will be built anyway and some lucky b'stard will pick it up as an unallocated order getting built for minimal wait time.
