Oh dear. Haven't heard back from my dealer, might chase them next week about it. I surely hope not! Tears if it's true.
I take it they would produce all the Wolfsburgs at the same time in one run in the factory? In that case all of us would be in the same boat! (Literally)

Most of you have probably seen the Golf R 7.5 PP shown at the Geneva Motor Show by now, but I came across these photo's of the Recaro race seats that appear to be fitted to a similar coloured R 7.5, which also has the Akrapovic exhaust with the black coloured tips instead of the silver tips normally shown.
The seats look incredible, but I have not seen them as an option on the list for the R 7.5. Does anyone have any info on them? I note the yellow pin stripe on the seats, both front and rear, so I assume that this stripe will be colour matched to whichever colour you chose for your R? These seats have been available in previous versions of R's, but not to this high standard before.
The R at the Geneva MS is also showing the carbon mirror caps and the full black roof.

I've placed a deposit for wolfsburg hatch, was told delivery October but from various dealers I have heard nov-dec, jan-feb. Assuming all 300 units are produced in one go, I am thinking 1st quarter 2018 (jan-mar) for delivery
