Hey guys,

Had a look at my papers this morning and im just curious as to how one wouild tell if they had a my12, 12.5 or 13? My build date was 04/12.

Thanks

4/12 would make it a MY12.5. MY13 started production in June

Certainly did!

The first MY13 Polo GTI's are on the "Asian king" arriving into Brisbane on the 13th of this month.

Hmm... I dunno... If your car is already in Australia (and pick up in 2 weeks means its pretty close if its not already landed... so its either already in-country or on a ship about to reach WA - like the Grand Mercury, which my car is on) then... well... you may be lucky, but I'm not 100% convinced it will be a MY13... I say that as it was touch n go if my car would be a MY13 and the build dates meant it probably isn't (hence I changed my forum sig back to MY12.5). To make the sailing when of a ship like the Grand Mercury and be MY13 it would have to be one of the very first. PM me your VIN if you like, it may be after mine and it might be as the dealer said, but Id be skeptical....

As for the wheels... yep all MY13s into Aus will get the Detroits, its not an option AFAIK. This was confirmed t me when I asked VWA when the bulletins first came out.

Edited to add... Grand Mercury has just hit Fremantle Port... if your car is on that ship, you will defo get it within 2 weeks... if your car is on a later ship arriving in say a week then you may still get it in 2 weeks and are more likely to be on for a MY13... Im dying to know what you get now! haha.

Hey Guys

The time has finally arrived!!!! Will be picking up my brand new Flash red MY13 Polo GTI tomorrow afternoon!!!
The wait has been killing me but it was worth it in the end because if I had bought one a month ago (a white one that was already in the show room), I would have missed out on the 18" Detroit wheels as it was a MY12.5

Hi Skoobys,

Please post up pics of your ride as soon as you get it, im excited to see OEM detroits on a polo gti in aus! though im sure they are 17" not 18".

[gavs]

Yes, 17" not 18".

I really hope that you get exactly what the dealer promises though, as some have found out, they're good at telling fibs and reneging on deals (5 doors instead of 3 for example) and being sooooo close to the changeover for production without actually knowing when the changeover is......

I've got an email sitting in my inbox from the dealer saying that I will be getting 18" Detroits!!! Bloody hell....I got all excited for nothing then...damit!!! They better be Detroits at least!

That post confused me... don't you want 18" Detroits ???
