Tracker updated for me again today saying 'car is on the next stage of its journey to the UK - three weeks to go!
Same, just checked there now. Could mean its getting loaded onto the boat, or simply one week has past. Who Knows?

Just checked the tracker again for the umpteen time today  :whistle:

Maths has never been my strongest point it has gone from 3 weeks to:-

Your car is in the final stage of its journey to the UK. On average it takes 10 days from build for this model to reach your local Volkswagen Retailer.

Yet so close but so far :lipsrsealed:

Showing as Step 6 of 7 arrived in the Uk.

Your car has now arrived in the UK and will be delivered to your local Volkswagen Retailer shortly. This normally takes 7 days.

 :laugh: :laugh:  Getting excited now as the delivery was projected for the end of March.  :laugh: :laugh:

Any updates for you Mark V GTD, EzzG, karlak and VWTM545 ?

A lot of VW stuff (including the finance calculator and Tracker) seem to be off line at the mo.

I still have old car to sell so frankly not looking for the new one to arrive super fast (have a loose date of 1st April for collection) - sorry I'm the opposite to everyone else!  Would have ordered later but the prices were going up by 1% so decided to order on 1st November and just hoped it would take ages to arrive!

Update - Tracker is back but still showing 'In transit - 3 weeks to go' phew!  I guess your car must have been built at the start of the week and mine at the end!

Cars can wait for a while at the UK end before leaving the dockside storage areas though....

Cars can wait at the dealer for a while awaiting a PDI as well; mine has been there for a week now and I've been told that it may be a couple of weeks before it's ready yet.

No update on my end, although as Mark V GTD says the tracker doesn't seem to be working.

I'm also in no rush to get my car as i'm driving 600-700 miles a week at the minute on quite rough roads where stone chips are pretty common. I got a massive one last week on my current car and was just glad it wasn't the GTD!!  :whistle:
Saying all that I'm massively looking forward to collecting it when it arrives!!  :laugh:

Also when my car arrives in the UK it still has to get another boat to make it across to NI, so I'll be waiting a bit longer than you guys!

I was getting the same not responding if you are persistent try after a couple of minute's you will get a response. VW will be updating the data and so many people trying at the same time gives the not responding  :wink:
