Hey Neepy,

Mine has been released for shipment last Friday but I still didn't get the confirmation that the car is being transported to Poland.

Got my update to say car is built and is in transit. If it ain't released until Jan though I'll be waiting for a 19 plate.

Just had the update to 5b this morning, I believe that means it's at the Port of Emden and waiting to be assigned a ship

I was told by my retailer yesterday that my car would be in the UK during December 2018 but wont be made available to me until January 2019.

This is strange. Ordered on 1 Oct 18 and  advised target date for delivery would be March/April 19.
VW App is currently still showing build week will be w/c 3 Dec.
Just heard from dealer that car is built and will be here in Dec !!!!!!..........
(......... but can’t register until early Jan).
Still plan to take it early March and I suspect dealer is being over optimistic just now.
But is it really built already?
