Mine is still BW confirmed too, but great news to hear a BW40 has gone in to transit! Further evidence that the 'Build in Progress' phase on the tracker is just an automatic tickover 7 days into build week and build could well have already commenced (hopefully).
Rejected - MK7 Golf GTI 5dr - Pure White - Hailstorm damaged (Ordered 24th April)
Rebuild on order - MK7 Golf GTI 5dr - Pure White - this time with Performance Pack - Confirmed BW40 (no hailstorms this time please!)

Because I wanted GTI logos on the calipers  :smiley:  Being totally serious, it was the one option I seriously considered but decided against on cost grounds originally.  As I'll save quite a few £££ driving  a free courtesy car for a couple of months that more or less pays for the discounted price on PP, so I thought why the hell not!  :grin:

Good for you buddy. I seriously considered adding the P-Pack. But it was another grand on top of all the other costs. I think VW have been quite cute about the pricing and dangling the carrot of the ultimate GTI status with PP... That is until the R arrives and the ED40 :wink:

OMG!

Just checked the tracker - mine has skipped the build stage and gone straight to in transit!

This news is awesome - as suspected it seems to have been built alongside similar cars with confirmed BW39's (eg Petedoherty whose went into transit testerday)
