The official I have ordered/received my new MKVI thread

Cheers for that. Looks like your dealers done some very good work for you. Nice one.

I think the wait time is dropping considerably though. I'm hearing a lot around the traps of people getting their cars delivered around now who have only been waiting 4-5 months from order date.

Which is a damn sight better than the travesty of 7+ months most people have been waiting for their new playthings.

I think VW have finally pulled the proverbial finger out of their puckered sphincter and realised there is a place called Australia which orders their cars too...

I hope that is the case....

I have been told July ETA ordered in December 2010

It has always been 4 months for the GTI and significantly more for the Golf R. I haven't heard of any reduced time frames except for those that are lucky to receive a cancelled order.

Not true. I waited over 7 months for mine, and several other members have waited considerably longer than 4 months for a GTI in the past. It's possible that GTI order timeframes are improving now however - perhaps some potential GTI buyers are going for the R instead.

Agreed. One of my clients here in Brisbane ordered a GTi in July last year and is only taking delivery next week. Going on nearly 9 months wait.

Less than 4 months for me. (well 2 days less)

Ordered 27th of Nov, pick up on this friday (25th of March)

Im guessing those earlier deliveries may be due to the specs you order already matching or very close to a car already being built. I was told 5-6 months wait for my GTI, its fairly specific as you can see by my sig, hopefully it dont take any longer then 6 months as my TDI looks like it will sell very soon

Nice specs on your GTi MiiLos, I haven't seen many other people apart from myself actually ordering 3DR manual Golfs. Seems everyone's hung up on getting DSG!

[SilvrFoxX]

You jagged it mate.. I ordered last September.. Delivery June.. 9 months wait and no sign of early delivery

[Gregar]

Congrats man! How long have you been waiting?

Ordered 28th October - so 5 months on the dot from Order to Delivery.

I'm getting the 5 door Manual, most of the people who ordered the DSG from what I have been reading mostly drive it in manual mode anyway, so I couldn't see the purpose of getting the Auto myself =) - Currently driving around an old Holden wagon auto and I hate it... I can't wait for when the truck turns up and unloads my car at the front of my door.. Then I have to figure out how to put these Euro plates on as looking at pictures with the normal QLD plates makes the car look odd...

On Order : Rising Blue Golf R - 5 Door ; Manual ; ACC ; 19" Talladega Wheels (silver). ETA 28th March 2011
