Great news! Shame you have to wait another week but at least it's here! That's still a very quick turn around from build to collection. How soon would you have been able to get it had you not been away working?

Nice, it's my birthday Thursday so I'm still hopefully for an extra special one!!!

Its funny because that was my exact reasoning  :grin:  Maybe its because I'm older now but I remember that the tax thing being quite relevant when picking up a car. I'm surprised they still do month to month in this day and age though.

Enjoy your car when you pick it up. My daughter is getting the new TT and I think I'm more excited than her  :laugh:

Yeah that's how I looked at must be an age thing I'm early 50s n back in the day getting a full 12month car tax use to be a battle lol but I'm sure I can spare a tenner n get a bigger grin especially as it's bank holiday weekend to boot  :laugh:

Got confirmation this morning that mine has been built. On its way to the UK so fingers crossed a maximum of 4 weeks to go.
