VW7R Posted March 9, 2015 Report Share Posted March 9, 2015 I'm starting to struggle with the wait now, so yeah borderline psychotic might be putting it mildly nearer the time haha I think the biggest problem is coming on here most days seeing people that have just got their cars or people including myself obsessing over what step they are at or what each step means, it's all good fun though Patience is a virtue. At least be the former. As for the latter, it's not in our repertoire as we will both drive whore red cars! Your heart will miss a beat when you first see it. It is really rather lovely in Red in both rain and shine. MalakianCigaro 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VW7R Posted March 9, 2015 Report Share Posted March 9, 2015 You're very lucky. Sales manager phoned VW to see what the hold up is and was told that it's due to the huge volume of March plates. Running to max timescales. Damn. And there I was hoping that we would be blessed with two non-identical twins! But your car will still get to you over a shorter time frame than mine did . So thou art the lucky one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You say patience is a virtue now the car is in the country and the end is nigh... When the wait seems to have no end, VW are the biggest best b'stards going. Had the exact same rants for my GTD.

stevai Posted March 10, 2015 Report Share Posted March 10, 2015 Haha small world! Born in Macc, lived in Wilmslow for 30 years... Looks like we're building up to a mini meet. I'll park between the McLarens (of which I saw 2 in alderley in the space of 5 mins last Saturday. And an Aston. And a ferrari California with the number plate PYREX. 2 lambos, and the usual plethora of bentleys and range rovers. Yawn.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sdg1973 Posted March 10, 2015 Report Share Posted March 10, 2015 BW10 still showing as build in progress. Disappointing, assuming it is correct. And to think there's a lengthy wait for the transfer too. At this rate it will be mid April before I get it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rondog82 Posted March 10, 2015 Report Share Posted March 10, 2015 Anyone care to share how long it's taken from stage 6 to collection? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ToRnado Posted March 10, 2015 Report Share Posted March 10, 2015 Anyone care to share how long it's taken from stage 6 to collection? Car will probably arrive at the dealers in around a week (sometimes sooner). After that its down to the dealer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevai Posted March 10, 2015 Report Share Posted March 10, 2015 Just got an email to say stage 5, but I knew that already when the tracker updated last Friday :S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ToRnado Posted March 10, 2015 Report Share Posted March 10, 2015 Just got an email to say stage 5, but I knew that already when the tracker updated last Friday :S If the email says "Step 5 of 7: Your car is in the final stage of its journey to the UK. From this point it takes approximately 10 days for this model to reach your local Volkswagen Retailer." then that's a Stage 5c. I also got an email update this morning but no text.
