Build date to delivery
« on: 22 February 2007, 19:40 »
Hi guys,

Long time reader, first time poster. I ordered my ED 30 back in November, and my build date is March week 1. Just wondering what sort of times others were getting from build date to on their drive. First new car I've ever bought; have 4-6 weeks in my head, but it is a total guess!

Was quoted 12 weeks for my GTI from initial order but the car arrived early and was on the road in 8. Depends on the dealer allocation , so work on 12 weeks max and hope for the best :wink:

Hi Nathan,

Mine was ordered on the 18th Jan, but the dealer had already pencilled in an order for this car and I hijacked it and altered the spec.

Mine is due week 3 in March so I would expect yours would arrive around the second week in April.
