no offence at all!  :smiley:

its a good idea. also it may be because the mk5 is being run out they are trying to better judge their stock levels with demand to avoid any waste when re-tooling the factory!?

yeh tell me about it! looking back its aaaages and certainly when i ordered it i never thought i would actually take delivery. i was tempted to get a stock car but was very picky about options so got a factory order instead. i think when it does arrive ill be sooo happy and really glad i got the spec i wanted! Not long now!  :smiley:

Imagine that, the horror of it! Sitting there eating your dinner and the news comes on, a ship carring VWs is wrecked in the channel off Dorset! Then theres a shot of your car on the beach being "salvaged" by Liverpudlian pikeys! First thing i'd do is go to the next Liverpool away game and cause some collateral damage! lol other than that, lets hope they both arrive spic and span!

Dorset is a long way for Liverpudlians to travel, especially in nicked cars.
