New Polo GTI - Ordered

[lowlee]

Hi Guys,

Newbie here just put a deposit on my Polo GTI. I want to thank you guys for all the information I was able to get from the threads in this forum.

As suggested by a different thread I contacted regional dealers about any of their allocations being available as my local dealer put delivery for March 2012 and I stumbled across a car being built Week 14 Day 2 (thats this Tuesday) available in the specs that I wanted. The dealer sent NADCON screenshots that look correct to my untrained eye.

Dealer seemed very genuine and helpful on the phone but I was very surprised that this car was available for sale considering the amount of time some of you guys have been/will be waiting. Dealer said it was one of his allocations that had yet to be sold not a cancelled order.

It really sounds too good to be true...

Welcome to the Forum lowlee
Happy to hear you found it useful. Just make sure your dealer gives you a confirmed COMM number as well as a recent NADCON screen dump and subsequent ones on a regular basis. You are very lucky indeed, enjoy

Thanks GTI JOE,

Should the COMM number be available now or is it issued at the same time as the VIN at "Checkpoint 8 Handover to Sales"? Checkpoint 8 is due on 5/4/11.

Cheers

Don't worry about future status dates too much as they change with the current status. Main thing is to see where the little dot is at, this will give you the current status. If your dealer says the car is on the NADCON, then yes, it must have a COMM number. You only get a VIN number at Checkpoint 8 as you mention

I have no idea how I managed it... And no not buying from Canberra. My local dealer is quoting April 2012 for delivery, so I was completely amazed I could secure one for June/July
