BW46 - 10.11.13

[stiggy786]

Build week coming up, hope our trackers tick over to Build in Progress soon. Has anyone contacted their dealer about a build day? I assume this is the day that building the car commences, because it must take 2-3 days?

Geomets this is the calm before the storm, things are going to kick off next week

Build in theory should start any day from Sunday to Sunday. It takes 30 hours to build split over 2-4 days.
I guess we will know by the end of next week if our cars are delayed or not

So Friday cars have some stigma because they're left unbuild over the weekend? (Friday, Monday, Tuesday).

not sure.... if I was Volkswagen I would be building cars 24/7 with all the automated build segments done on weekends 
I'm trying not to get too excited in case we face delays for months and months

Absolutely, and my tracker's still saying "Performance" so would forgive some delay if they want to throw in a cheeky complimentary PP!

Are you 100% sure that your dealers accidentally ordered the Performance version? 

[stiggy786]

My dealer's 100% confirmed that the PP has NOT been ordered from his end, but a boy can dream can't he? Even though it's a pipedream.

Well it seems odd, perhaps their was a error at the factory and it will arrive as a PP 
We will be getting the new revised BW45 spec change so that's a bonus although I use a iPhone4S and not a 5. May have to buy a red MDI iPhone cable.

I've already bought some cleaning items etc

Anyone's tracker updated to stage 4 yet ours hasn't

Nope we got until the end of the week and then we should perhaps expect delays.
It's best to speak to your dealer at the end of this week for a progress report.
The online tracker isn't that detailed and can be slow to update.
For example some owners have been sat waiting on Step 3, then straight to Step 5 in transit. :s
