Just depresses me thinking about it. Near 5 month wait for a hatchback.

By the time I get mine it will be a near 6 month wait so count yourself lucky! ;)

To be of any use you'd have to wait until you have a confirmed BW before you could add it to a list because the estimates change every week (they're not really estimates, its not an estimate if you just give an optimistic date and then revise it back each time it gets close enough to be clear it won't be met).

Anyway the point is it would only become interesting to those who have a BW, and I doubt they'd be interested.  You could argue it would be useful for others to see how long they have to wait, yet VW got that covered too!  Since each individual order seems to get a random lead time based on the mythical "allocation" you can predict jack sh!t.

Ok, Monday morning rant over.  Good weekend all?

Nope! resisting the urge to piss off my new neighbours who have taken it upon themselves to park competely across my drive and piss off for a few days. Tempted to call the council and get them to tow it away or stick a ticket on it, but I haven't even met them yet.

I rarely park on my drive at the back, but today i'm looking to take a few non standard OEM parts off my Scirocco and return it to factory spec. First day of my 2 weeks shutdown hols.
Whey ya bugger! It's finally arrived after an 8 month wait....
