I ordered my GTI on the 13th of December and according to @VWUKHELP twitter account, the provisional build date for the car is week 6 (2nd week of Feb, and it could change either way apparently).

No update on the VW car build tracker yet. Is it just me, or does the build tracker look alot like the Dominos Pizza tracker!?

Recon I'm on for a March delivery?

Did you go down there just to have a look? Thinking of having that one instead? :wink:

I have made some enquiries  and just waiting to hear back. Will be interests to hear how much the price has shot up now it's in stock.  :laugh:

The tracker will change 4 weeks before the build date to give a confirmed build date.
We are now on build week 1 so it doesn't look like your order has moved forward to week 5.
I'm in a similar boat. I was told the 1st week in February but it looks like the earliest I will be is build week 6

So when the tracker turns to build week confirmed you are probably looking anywhere between 6 - 8 from collecting it from the dealer.

I also found @vwukelp quite useful for information when I bought my GTD although initially they kept telling me to approach my dealer so I had to bend the truth a bit before they would give me some info  :grin:

The order date for the GTI that I subsequently changed was 22 Oct and it only arrived today.
That's about 11 weeks but I presume the factory closes over xmas ( may be wrong ) so 9 weeks sounds about right.
I'm sure someone will correct me if that's complete garbage :embarrassed:
