I think they are only a week behind now as my bw 36 started being built on sunday possibly monday.

Is this confirmed with VW? My tracker went to 'Build in Progress' on Sunday as well but when I spoke to them yesterday they still said it was a two week delay. They said they hoped that it would go into build on the 20th.
this was confirmed by my salesman. it was at stage 3 which is just before paint shop. im expecting mine to be built completely by the weekend at the latest.

I saw the screen that said stage 3 on the salesman's comp when I picked mine up. I reckon it should be built by now or overnight if the 30 hour rule is applied.
Whey ya bugger! It's finally arrived after an 8 month wait....

I hope so MH. something interesting that Mick said about shipping was that as it was a customer order the shipping was quicker. if it's for stock no priority is given for shipping. don't know how true that is.

Does non-priority shipping on a stock car/demo really matter when they're getting built 10 weeks sharper than the customers orders?  :huh:

If it is now finished and they pull their finger out, you might get yours in the next 2 weeks or so.

Marinetraffic.com or port of Tyne's own website that should show expected arriveals for the next 6 days (sometimes ships appear there just 2 days before they're due in, as "city of Rotterdam" did with mine).

city of Paris and city of Rome have gone/are going today so city of Rotterdam is your next feasable bet.
