Guys im a BW34er and in my experience and others in BW33 you will most likely update on Saturday night.

I hate to be the bearer of bad news. Mine read Build in progress for 16/17 days before it changed today (:laugh: :laugh:) to in Transit.

I was told by VW CS that there is a 10 day - 2 week delays for all build weeks at the moment therefore its a Buildfortnight. You could be one of the lucky ones who get a build and in transit in a matter of days.

Mine changed to Build In Progress at the start of BW34 and its still the same  :sad:

The dealer says as soon as he can that he will be getting priority shipment, this car was an original order for the dealer way back when the order book opened, I hijacked it end of June and changed the spec, he says third week of Sept latest to be sat in it  :rolleyes:


Hi Dully

Looking at your location did you order from Lookers/Vertu on Outer Circle? It's just that you mentioned the dealer will try to get you priority shipping and if so I will have to give them a ring too, as I'm BW35 and still showing "Build In Progress".

Blades72 ....... My order was placed with Marshalls at Sunny Scunny it was an original order for the Grimsby branch for stock which I took over. It is worth a chat with Lookers to see what they can do, I am still Build In Progress though and it has been like that since 16th August  :angry:

Still no luck with the tracker.  I am getting Build Week commences 01/09/13, but build still has not started and after tonight, this is obviously no longer the case.  Wish they would just get their act together.

Tracker is also rejecting my tracking number.  It seems the Tracker is about as reliable as their dates :grin:
