Looks like you could reorder and still get the same delivery date you expected on the original order.

German forum is talking of as low as 7 week delivery for the GTI but longer than this for the GTD:

Do you rekon I should cancel and re-order or just push and see if VW CS etc. can get this amended for me ? And then let them keep the car for me in the compound until March

If it was me and I really wanted the camera as well as wait on a 2014 plate then I would contact the dealership and explain to them that I wished to re-order because they failed to tell me the cameras had now become available.

It's really a decision only you can make though. It's a lot of money to be spending so you might as well get what you want  :tongue:

 I know I would have liked the camera but to be honest it would serve little benefit for the amount of driving I do so am happy to keep my order. Still looks the part though, especially if you have the nav pro.

How sure are you this will work ?  :grin:

I'd put my mortgage on it  :laugh:
As for adding options and getting VW UK to help you, I very much doubt it.
I had a similar thing with my Golf order. I wanted to add the heated seats and the dealer said it had "just" got a confirmed build week so couldn't alter the order. They said the would try though.
Came back to me and said it wasn't possible.

So I phoned VW UK at Milton Keynes as I thought the dealer was just saying that.
First operator said, sorry once you get a confirmed build date you would have to cancel the car and re order if you wanetd to change the spec.
Being the untrusting person I am I phoned back another twice as I thought I would go for best of 3 answers  :laugh:
One operator was optimistic and actually took my details and said he would contact Wolfsburg direct but came back with the same answer as everyone else.

If you want to add or amend your order once you have a confirmed build date you will have to cancel and reorder.

Has the camera definitely been added? Its still not on the configurator, although that doesn't surprise me.
