Update: my tracker has just jumped forward this morning. Gone from build week confirmed 24/07 to in transit. Skipped the build in progress step completely.

Sorry to double post, another update which might help answer why all the build week 30 orders have jumped forward.

From VW live chat:

'Thanks for waiting. I have some clarification now. The car has been built and it left the factory today, en route to the German Port of Exit. The reason is that it has been built early. Originally it was scheduled to be built during week 30, but it was built early due to a factory closure.'

Fair play to the guy I spoke to he couldn't get any joy on the phone, so physically went two floors down to get some clarification in person. :smiley:

Whether this means the cars will sit in Germany til the original planned shipping date, or it ships sooner, I'm not certain, as he didn't have any more info on that.

If it's showing as in transit my guess is it'll get shipped as soon as it fits in with their schedule. Mine was supposed to be build week 24/07 but has already arrived in the UK on 4/07. Spoke to my dealer yesterday who wasn't even aware it had been built!  :grin:

@ Beezer, thanks for the update from VW, so maybe mine will be built early after all, or perhaps is already built.

I ordered mine on the 4th of April and is being delivered to me tomorrow, I think it tends to be around the 10-12 week mark most of the time.

Have you been on live chat they will give you your provisional build date that way your not checking every day and getting disappointed.
