New Polo - I've got one!

[Casper]

Hey Casper, I am in Melbourne. I had to call around nearly every deaer in VIC to find it. The dealer already had one on order hence the small delay. I know the Narre Warren dealer had a silver 1.2Tsi, DSG, Sports pack in stock about a week ago but they are a bunch of idiots.

EDIT: Sorry forgot to mention that I ordered it on the 15th May.

Cheers for that You ordered the exact same car on the same day as me haha... They told me when ordering that they'd be able to transfer one from another dealer, and that I should have it by July... Hope they weren't pulling my leg just to make the sale!

Let us know what happens! It certainly is a rare combo.

Saw the dealer today - my car is due to be built around the 15th June, and should be delivered by late July/early August (I hope)...

Very much doubt your car would arrive July/August if it is being built on the 15th June. I would get that in writing if that is what they have said. By the time I get my car it will have been nearly a month and it was only one week away from docking in Melbourne.

Good on you for the buy mate.... I hope it works out well for you. I'm still not sold on the new look of the Polo however...

Just on what Break was saying... I have never had a problem with mine coming on to boost or heal/toeing. The pedals are perfect for me. Is your car chipped or have you done any intake work? I ask, as even before I got chipped, boost was coming on at around 2750rpm for me, and then after the chipping, boost was coming on very strong from about 2500rpm and carring on to just before redline. that was though all of the gears.

Our car arrived at the dealer today It was built on the 19th of May in South Africa and was unloaded of the ship last Monday at Port Kembla. So that makes it about 6 weeks after the build date.

Awesome fingers crossed mine arrives so quickly... I guess the time between build date and delivery would vary depending on how long it takes to fill the ship with cars...

Hmmm....I make that 13 days. Did you mean May or March?

[Billecartz]

I mean't April!

Picked up my Polo today! Very happy with it so far. It was built on the 1st of April so the delivery time was pretty good. I will take some pics tomorrow!
