How to track the car you have ordered?

Hi all,

My dealer told ma last tuesday that it would be nearly 8 weeks until we even know what build week that my Golf is scheduled for. Is there anything then that I can follow at this point in time? Or do I have to wait until the Build Week allocation?

That's actually true. You don't receive a confirmed build week for quite some time.
The NADCON ETA Data table populates slowly as time goes on. Hence why some people receive regular "updates" from their dealer. My dealer contacts me once a month to just keep me updated.

Yeah thats fine thats fine. I certainly wasnt implying that I didn't believe the guys, they've been great so far. Just was interested to know if there was anything I could follow at this point in time.

Thats good to know.. hope thats a Denlo service across the board and not just sales rep centric. given I am only into my 3rd week I dont expect to hear anything for some time

Nothing really...placed my order July and until two weeks ago had no information other than commission number..22/09/10
04/10/10 got vin number
09/10/10 loaded on the ship

It will be interesting to see Silverfoxx who gets their R first, seeing as how we ordered within 2 weeks of each other! At least we can compare what info we are getting from our respective dealers. I daresay they may be on the same line and or ship... But that is being highly presumptuous.

Like the others I was tracking mine regularly and the dates of various checkpoints changed quite a few times. My planned production date went from wk 32 to 38 and ended up being 40. No idea why but I suspect I wasn't the only one as heaps of others have been waiting an equal amount of time and are at the same point....on the same boat lol.

Well, REXman, dave- and I all ended up on the same boat. REXman and I ordered from the same dealer on the same day. dave- obviously in VIC instead of NSW. But same boat. There you go

Speaking of our boat....

Here is the Morning Camilla from about 2 days after just after it docked at the Port of Zeebrugge. So REXman, dave- and my new Golf R's are all in this photo! Just hidden from view
