Carbon grey hasn't been made for a few months and definitely no new factory orders for GTD/GTI/R are currently possible - has been like that since just before Christmas.

None of the orders currently being processed will be a FL.

When the order books reopen, those will be FL.

Carbon Grey will be replaced by Iridium Grey on the FL.
Current: Mk8 GTI DSG, Adelaides, DCC, HUD, HK, Winter Pack, Rear Camera.. Aka "HMS Weasel"

Gone: 2017 Mk7.5 GTD,manual, NavPro
Gone: 2014 Mk7 GTD, manual, NavPro, DCC

Mine has changed this morning to in Transit!  :laugh:  :grin:

 :cool: Does it say four or three weeks to dealers..?


guys i have to ask all you that have put in orders are these cars going to be the golf 7 facelift? i was led to believe that they had stopped production on the mk7 this is why i was told i couldnt order a carbon grey gti so had to go for the olny black one with the speck i wanted they could find  :rolleyes:

I too wanted Carbon but decided to stay with white as I still love that colour plus the panroof will look awesome on the white... :cool:

Little update today. Spoke with VW on the chat and my car boarded a boat called ''City of Oslo'' and should reach the UK either today or tomorrow.

Tracker says that my car is on it's final stage of it's journey to UK, from this point it take approx 10days to dealers.

So is anyone able to tell me where the boat might be at the moment (City of Oslo) as I'm useless at tracking boats..?

Thanks

Excellent, only live a 45 min drive from Sheerness could pop down and see them and make sure there not fighting!  :grin:  :evil:

Mine has not budged yet either, waiting for the little animation to say Arrived in the UK!  :cool:

Going to wait for the March reg!
