Woohoo off to pick up my car now

I get mine on Tuesday (WHYYY couldn't it have been before the long weekend ).

Exactly the same as yours except no sun roof....

Consider yourself lucky! My GTI landed on 31/5 but I still haven't received any word on when I can take delivery. I even asked but they just say "we'll let you know". Grrr I was hoping I could get it before the long weekend!

Mine has been sitting at the dealers for about three weeks. I am awaiting for signoff on the lease from my employer otherwise i would be in it now. Hopefully this will be done next week. The wait is killing me knowing the car is only up the road and yet is still so far away.

Finally received my GTI late this afternoon - it came in on the same boat. Which dealer? It is worth the wait - a great car. Will post some pics tomorrow.

finally got the call that all my finance had gone through at about 2:45 this afternoon (when i posted) after about 2 weeks of mucking around with paperwork nonesense (the car's just been sitting at the dealers).
Called my mate and we headed out down to Campbelltown to pick it up.
BAM !!
Friday afternoon long weekend traffic and the M5 out of the city was in gridlock. It should have been an hour's drive but we got there 7 mins before the dealer was supposed to close at 5:30. I'd called ahead and he was really cool about it and stayed open to let me take delivery, walk me through the car, check everything etc.

By that time it was well and truely dark, but I had a fantastic drive back to Sydney and the car was a dream. Soooo nice
Got home and the missus met me downstairs and I took her for a drive.
This was actually her first time in the car (having not come with me to test drive/order etc) and despite her insistence the whole time that I should have got a 'sports car' (read - 'convertible') she was really taken by the car and quite likes it.

I'm a happy camper so far

Might post some pics mon/tues - I think we'll be away for the long weekend

I bet that was a long drive and so frustrating.. How bad would it have been though being in gridlock in the new beast! I'm buying mine from Gosford so am looking forward to a nice drive home down the freeway....

Well at least I wouldn't have been stressed about not getting there in time to pick it up - and thereby NOT having it for the weekend and having to drive to Campbelltown again another time !
