Very nice Moonface, the Best of luck with it. Any chance of a few pictures of the car outside the showroom environment? I've a vested interest in White Silver as I'm waiting on mine.

Took some more pics:

Just put in an order for a 7.5 in Tornado red. Is the general view that certain options or configurations increase build time? I'm new to performance cars so thought I'd start with a standard manual GTI, 5 Door no options so am I facing the best chance of a quicker build time, or is it just wishful thinking?

Sometimes manual can be the sticking point or even something from the UK base build (eg led headlights or 18's or whatever)

I placed my order, July 14th. Found out today that it's due for build end of October.

That's a 5dr, DSG, PP. Tornado Red, leather, Dynaudio, Rear Camera, Rear Tints.

Should be early December delivery I guess?

Yeah, I'm guessing (and the dealer guessed when I ordered) it would be around Christmas.

Annoyingly the dealer thought they may be able to get one that was in the country already (base spec in red obviously is going to be fairly popular) but they've not been able to get hold of one, so they should've put the order through yesterday.  I'm not all that patient but it'll be worth waiting for.
