I'll be interested to hear how long it does take them to sort it once its arrived here in Wait Awhile.

I'm on the FAUST - Slated to be in Freo late Feb

Yours has been built and put on the boat? Nice! AFAIK mine will be built this week or next. Did you get any VW emails when it was built or just that is was scheduled?

Once I eventually got the commission number from the dealer, called up the VW customer service to find out what was happening. When they told me it was on the boat I just asked for the VIN number and did the seach.

Was suprised to find out it was built as I was worried the order had gotten lost. Last update from the dealer was delivery got changed (again) to June/July

Damn it! Knew it was to good to be true. Dealer has just told me the commission number they gave me was another customers, and mine hasn't even been assigned yet

Getting more info tomorrow.

sorry to hear they got your hopes up only to crush them. Thats worth a $2k markdown on your car price IMO

Hi there....hmm that sounds a bit suss to me, how do they give you the wrong commission number and wouldn't VGA surely check your name on the system against the comm number before giving you a vin number??

That's what mine was on when it left in October 2011. It must take 3-4 months to do its world trip!

I intially drove one in Mid 2010 and wanted one, but was put off by the lengthy wait. I postponed my purchasing of a new car until Nov 2011 when I just happened to walk through a VW showroom and found a brand new white 5Dr model + RCD510 which had only been on the floor a couple days and in the country a week. Apparently someone cancelled their order after it arrived. The only problem was there wasnt much haggling on the price
