Also good news, the rego information came through this morning, so I can now go and drive my car legally (not that I drove it while I couldn't register it) - Will post pictures in the other thread later on today...

Aaah, that IS great news! Glad it's all sorted out

But the car has the compliance plate in the boot right?
That's installed in Australia at the compliance centre. Volkswage Group Australia are also who places the orders with the factory etc. So there has to be record of this car by at least both of those companies.

hmmm i have mine in 2 places? o.0
one in the boot and one on the passenger side door? =\

I'm off to get mine now...

Picked up... after two months wait and 10 days pre-delivery the car came without MDI or Bluetooth... they promise me it will be installed at the first service on May 1st. Is noone checking this stuff? Whats PD for? Anyway its a great drive, fun but very different from my last car. Happy to finally have it. Will snap some pics later and post them tonight.

Here are the pics from today... I'm off to Tunehouse in the morning.

Hi Guys,

I have had my Golf GTI on order since the 21st Feb, how long does it usually take before a confirmed build date is given? I keep calling the dealer and he seems to have no idea....

Way too early, if your delivery date is August you won't know anything for 3-4 months if they keep to the 6 month schedule. I ordered mine September last year with an ETA of March and I didn't really get a clear update until the beginning of March of it moving from dealer order to factory. I still don't have any other info at this point so I know it is hard but you dealer isn't going to be able to help as all he sees is an order been placed.

It took around 9 weeks to get 'Allocation of Production Plant' for my TSI. I didn't get a real indication of delivery timing (other than an educated guess from the dealer) until then.

Yeah, the GTI and the R seem to be very delayed.. 9 weeks would have been a wet dream come true..

Thanks for Reply's DRL and SilvrFoxX. Guess I have a very long wait, I traded my old car in, so the dealer had to take it then and there. No car to August is going to feel like an eternity.
