Build Week 19

[monkeyhanger]

I'm seriously jealous, my GTI PP ordered first week in March still stuck on stage 2. 

You've a long wait yet if yours is a fresh order rather than the dealer modifying one that already existed - in another 6 days it will be a straight 8 months from when I ordered my R. 18 days stuck at Emden now. In time that impatience will fade.....

I am actually beginning to like these monkeyhanger v Ronald conversations. Don't know how you are remaining so calm they must be giving you some compensation for this.

Had a look at Emden Port on Google maps today and there is an unbelievable capacity for cars waiting to go out or coming in although it's hard to tell which is which.

Ronald is due to call me back today (Tuesday), probably around 4pm again (he said it was going to be around the same time as it was the other day). Can't wait for him to tell me my car has arrived at Emden (again) as if it's a new development.

Ha ha. If I see it I'll only want it even more. Will make the wait till first week of June even more painful!

Yes mate, it will be pics galore!

I really hope I can get my hands on it middle of next week.

Trying my hardest to be patient. Luckily I have a manic week to keep me busy.

Need to brush up on detailing and need to pick some stuff up at some point.

Stealer emailed me today. Car has arrived! Can't collect till first week of June tho, but at least it's ready and waiting.

I've just got the snowfoam gear, lambswool wash mitt and a drying towel. The snowfoam makes a big difference and gives a nice shine.
