Jimble when you likely to collect yours? You seem to be one of the more patient ones on here.

It's supposedly being built next week so in theory it should be at the dealers the second weekend in october?? I could do with picking it up on the 5th as i'm on call with work the following friday for a week and the car is 150 miles away! Somehow i doubt i'll be that lucky!


Tbh mate i've read nearly all of the angry posts on here about the wait and i've waited pretty much the longest on here with maybe one or two exceptions, i can understand the frustrations but i also think that sometimes too much information can be detrimental, yeah i'm curious why but it can drive you nuts!!

I know what you mean. I'm in no position to comment because my delivery was exceptionally quick but the waiting game can pretty much take over your life if you not careful. It's not easy to just accept it when it's something you want so badly but you appear to have coped with it well. At least it's not too long now and you will appreciate even more when you get your hands on it

Thanks mate, tbf it's been helped by the fact that i didn't want to take delivery till 1st of september as my current finance would be cleared by then, so instead of it being sat in the compound for 2 months i'll get it pretty much as soon as it lands all being well, i'd be more annoyed if my trade in value depended on delivery date but my dealer is standing on the original quote so no big deal, i'm going to drop my retention certificate in next weekend and he's told me i can have their demo for a couple of hours so should be a fun afternoon!!


Gotta be honest though the recent pics are getting me a bit more excited!!

Lol! Thanks mate, as i've said i think getting too involved in the process will just drive you nuts! There is no point getting TOO angry about it as it won't make it arrive any faster (apart from MH getting prority shipping) although i can understand the frustrations and a forum like this is an ideal place to vent!

I think waiting 6 months for my mk6 has prepared me a little but it still sucks that we have to wait so long, i'm sure it'll be worth it in the end though!

It was dark and chucking it down. So many new buttons. The red light trim. The pen. Well maybe not.

£250 of M & S vouchers,free paint protection,luxury mats and a bottle of champagne, pretty happy with that lot. I must have one of the better dealers.

I got a bit of compensation from my dealer today (after having complained).  They don't want to buy my Scirocco so now I am stuck with the hassle of selling it.

I explained that no-one is going to want to buy a Scirocco that is already due a service and requires an MOT renewal very soon.  Because it is a 59 plate with almost 45k miles it is due a big £350 service.

So they have agreed to service the car and MOT it for £150.  I'm sure they are not losing any money by doing that, only making a bit less - but it does make things a bit easier for me if I chose to sell the car privately or to another dealer.
