If it's built in January, expect delivery from mid April to early May, depending on the build week.

Takes that long? Wow... Bet they'll slog me with a pricing change by that time

Beauty. Thanks that works.

Sadly yes (on the delivery front). A fair case is to assume around 12 weeks for delivery from build, assuming all goes well. There are exceptions of course (both positive and negative).

As a guide, mine was an early Feb build and I picked it up (in Sydney) on 30 April

I suspect someone over in Deutschland forgot about my order for 4-5 months. Not happy

Yikes!

My order was for a fully optioned Highline TSI wagon in March, arrived at the dealer late last month. Unfortunately, haven't been able to find a buyer for my old car and it's lost around 5k value on the trade-in since ordering so at this stage, I may not be able to afford the new one if the old car doesn't sell privately.

Wouldn't have had an issue had I been able to pick up the new one in March!

So I have had my car on order for about a month, I went for a Golf Wagon Highline TDI R Line. Pure White, Pano Roof, Driver Assist. I had a call from the dealer on Friday to say that its still scheduled for early December delivery with build to commence mid September. Seems to be a realistic time frame, just have to wait and see.

Must say i am most disappointed that xenons are no longer an option for the Highline.

Ordered Golf R fully optioned in Lapiz blue. Estimated delivery December 2014. Dealt with Kurt at McGraths Sutherland, a genuine guy who gave me a top deal.
