I think it does come down to dealer allocations a bit too sadly scoobyc - I'm going to be collecting mine exactly 11 weeks after ordering, and that's despite the car having to be re-ordered two weeks after I ordered it because the dealership sent through the order as a manual instead of DSG. So in reality I'm looking at 9 weeks, which is quite impressive. Fingers crossed for you buddy  :smiley:

Ah. Sorry to hear that, hope it comes through for you soon. Did you order direct with a dealer or thru lease company? Mine was direct with dealer , via drive the deal introduction, don't know if that affects the delivery time. I expected to wait a lot longer as imagined dtd dealer get lots of orders so might have used up their allocation.

Straight through the dealer, their estimate was build week 19 with pickup estimated at 4 weeks after that but having heard all the good news on here I chased them to see if my one had come in but... :cry:   :smiley:

I'm not normally a fan of red cars, but it really suits the 7.

Andy just called and said he's gone to check the car over and found a ding in a front wing that is a bit too big to polish out. Little bit annoying, but these things happen. Has said he 'll get it to the body shop without it being driven , then full it up with She'll Vpower before delivery, which should still be this week.

This is killing me. Car went to the body shop on Monday afternoon and I'm waiting to hear when it will be delivered.   Really hoped it would be today!

How is everyone else getting on?

What a nightmare Jimmy. Although it's good your dealer spotted and sorted it rather than you found it on pickup!

It will all be worth it - hoping you will be in it before the weekend and partaking in a limited burst of Rev's in Race mode :D

Fingers crossed for you Jimmy - I'm collecting tomorrow at 11am  :laugh:
I've got Dan of Carbon Autos booked in to do a full protection detail on Friday too, so hopefully on Saturday I'll have some photos to share of yet another Carbon Grey GTI!
