Delivery blow out

So I guess this is a bit of a shamefull plug, but there are frequently nice 9N3 Polo's for sale if someone wants an interim vehicle. My car is a 2006, lots of nice mods, low Kms and fast. Check out a couple in the Classifieds section.

or it you prefer no mods, 2007 model you can take a look at mine ;)

No need for a 9N3 Polo at this point as some members, Gav and Frostee, have just got great news about their 6R Polo GTI orders:) Hopefully more good news to come.

Yes yes, it's amazing how an update saying the cars in the hands of production as we speak, can make a 25 year old go mental like a 4 year old over giant Lego Millenium Falcon (yes, I'm a Star wars nerd!) !! :D:D:D

Frostee got better news though :(:( Humph, he will get his car before the rest of us:(

Damn You, lucky bastard;)
May the force be with young GavWalker......I am not your father:)

Maybe not, but if not for you, I would have been waiting until next year :)....No, bugger that, I would have canceled the order and probably bought a Kia.....

They all have downfalls that the polo doesnt have; A1 : too slow, close to $50k with decent specs; C30: getting on in age, thirsty; Cooper S: too common, too expensive; and CT200h: derivative styling, only base model within price range. I wish alfa, citroen and renault would hurry up and develop decent automatic gearboxes for the giulietta, ds3 and RS250! Actually saw pics of the new DS4.. looks awesome but unlikely in Australia till mid 2012.

Good luck everyone!

Ummmmmm, I may be missing something here but is this not precisely the reason that demand is exceeding supply therefore long lead times? VAG has produced a vehicle which is so much better value than it's competitors that they can't build them quick enough. Pretty simple really.

I have just received my NADCON. Could someone please post up the web address where I can input this sucker and prepare myself to be bitterly disappointed.....Thanks in advance.

I think they're also taking a VERY cautious approach (due to the losses of other car manufacturers over the last few years) by not over committing. & as a result, they've underestimated the popularity of this model & shot themselves in the foot, unfortunately for the consumers...
