Tracking JETTA

[GolfR]

Park assist? I was informed park assist was not an available option therefore did not add this to my order.

^^^^^ I'm from Trinidad by the way so the quote doesn't represent all the options that available in Australia...

Looking at the quote again we also don't get park assist but simply get sensors which display an outline of the car and show how close an object is to it.

At no point does the car drive itself into a park.

Yeah, that's the OPS - Optical Parking System. The park-itself version is called Park Assist 2.

IIRC, Park Assist simply means reverse and front sensors.

Again, no Park Assist 2 option available in Australia for the new Jettas.

Small update. Vehicle is scheduled to be built this month according to the dealer.

Jettas built for the Caribbean do intact get sent to Germany for inspection. This was verified by speaking with a customer from Jamaica and this fact was stated without my hinting or prompting. Vehicles sent to the US or Australia are most likely inspected by VW in those countries but isn't really highlighted.

On another note seeing that my JETTA will ship from Germany maybe I will be able to track it easier than if it was to be shipped from Mexico.

I highly doubt this happens. Doesn't make much logistical sense to have them make the car in Mexico, have them sent to Germany, then onto destination countries.

I have tried this on the latest model Passat. It's so effin cool. It can do parallel and 90degree parking!!!

I was doubtful as well ziggyboy but that info has come from three separate persons, two of them without my prompting and in separate countries.

It doesn't apply to larger markets like the US or Australia but the Caribbean could never be considered a large market for VW and possibly it's logistically beneficial to them if they are only shipping 10 or so vehicles to the Caribbean per month?

Update: Vehicle built, VIN obtained and *drumroll* vehicle is listed as "internal transfer" and is on it's way to Germany :s

What do you guys think of this? My vin is WVWZZZ16ZCM******

Do your vins start off with WVW or 3VW?
