Got my 5c text this morning. Must be on the same ship as Gorocco?!

Is the 10 day average time to dealer estimate accurate? Or is that time frame an over estimate from member's experience?

I got my 5c text on 19th Feb
Stage 6 text on 23rd Feb and then again on 25th
Arrived at dealer (stage 7) 26th Feb

So I suppose they give the 10 days so they have a few days to play with.

The long wait is nearly over. Got so see my 3 door black GTi yesterday for the first time and my decision to go for black has been vindicated. I don't care whether it's harder to keep clean than any other colour, when it is clean absolutely nothing beats it. With tinted windows and jet black tyres together with the black parts of the alloy it looks mean as f*ck.

One more sleep then I get to drive her home   :grin:

Anybody, confirmed for build this week, heard any more today? Mines still showing the same, and no email. Twitchy!

The wait is a killer in the last week or so. When my sister in law bought her R8 in 2006 it came just before the new reg and the dealer let her have it a few days earlier before the new plate came in. She had to drive it on the garages plates until midnight on the 1st when she could take them off. Pretty nice of the Audi dealers to let her.
