A Bunch Of Merged "My New Car / Order" Threads

[Corey_R]

This is great news for you guys!

Awesome, same ship as mine.

I have been following that **** since it left bremerhaven and its a long wait.

I see it made up a day last week too out of south africa, was originally due in melbourne the 24th but now gets in the 23rd

the original ETA on my paperwork is 28/02.

We ordered the car on 10/11/09. The system shows the order was entered on 11/11/09. The car was built on 05/01/10 (2nd day of 1st week, 2010).

There goes the theory of Australian GTIs being built starting in week 6 of 2010. The week 6 build theory must have being a salemans trick to entice buyers to sign on the dotted line before Christmas 09 I reckon.

That one always sounded a bit shaky to me.

I don't want to burst the bubbles of the guys waiting either, but the two cars of mine that I have tracked both gained time around Sth Africa only to lose it again between Freo/Melb/Sydney.

And, the worst pain of the wait hasn't even started yet, haha.

I ordered my GTI in begining of Dec and it seems it still hasn't been built yet. I've been quoted to expect it around begining to mid April..

[WhiteJames]

I ordered my GTI mid December with a March date set for arrival at dealer. Added Park Assist in early Jan which didn't change the arrival date. Added again, Bi-Xenon lights later Jan and was told it may or may not delay the arrival by a few weeks.

My GTI could possibly be a Week 6 build with dealer telling me to expect a 10-12 week wait for arrival at the dealership. 10-12 week wait is std waiting time I'm told.

The GTI was not due to hit the factory floor 6-8 weeks after order date in mid Dec. I do recall dealers telling me to order by first/second week of December 09 to secure a March delivery, rushing to meet a deadline that did not really exist in retrospect. I expect mine to arrive around mid April 10.

Cheers.

Awesome news guys! Bet you can't wait.

For others out there looking at GTI I believe Denlo has 6-7 at the minute.

This week is week 6. Check with your dealer. They should have something for you now.

Hi Kwoka,

I ordered mine end of November.. i didnt specify 2010 build but its due the same time as you.. does this mean mine isnt built yet either? is there still a chance its a dec 09 build?
