GTD build dates (estimated or confirmed)

[GTIEcosse]

My BW34 standard spec Tornado Red GTD finally changed to 'In Transit' overnight! 

It'd previously been sat in 'Build in Progress' for 11 days with VW UK unable to confirm what was actually happening.

I placed my order back in April but my dealer reckons they've got over 70 more recent GTD orders that they just can't get confirmed build weeks for... crazy!

Looks like I am a week behind you...confirmed build week 35, but still at "build in progress"...now been a week.

Seems to be that cars are going to "in transit"  10 -14 days after intially going to "build in progress"...wait continues!

Issue I have is collection at other side of country (Scotland to Kent)...flight prices going up all the time and reluctant to book without a delivery date.

Wow! Yours will be run in by the time you get home!

I hope so, but then it  doesn't appear anyone would recommend a 500mile motorway cruise as the best way to run-in a new motor!

Plenty of variation of revs going round the M25

it appears that our GTDs are in transit together. Mine was a BW34 and went to in transit yesterday morning and still read 4 weeks for delivery and then this morning read 3 weeks to delivery

Go up the A1 - lots of roundabouts/stop start motoring to vary those revs!

Good call that. I always go A1(M) when I go oop north, not a bad drive.

Can you post some pics so we can share in the hilarity?

My dealer said either that or an up with no central locking or electric windows.

I will try and post some pics later.

I have tried to add the pics of the beetle I have been given but unable to do it for some reason. anyone able to help.

Yeah use photobucket, there is a 'how to' thread on here somewhere. On my phone atm but will try to find it for you.
