Congrats vk6tnc, looking good. I have a feeling red will be a lot rarer in the 7s so that stands out a little.

Told the wife it should blend right in, parked next to the new Corollas and Hyundais

Anybody else with a car arriving on the Tijuca? It should get in to Tahiti on Saturday, then on to Auckland, Melbourne, Port Kembla and finally Brisbane. It left Bremerhaven on 21 March and came the longest possible way via the Panama Canal.

I don't think that's too bad. The Undine which had a lot of our cars on it went down the west coast of South Africa and then across the Indian Ocean and took over 6 weeks to get to us.

It will actually be 7 ½ weeks for mine - from Bremerhaven to Brisbane. The wait is killing me!

Hey, I was expecting mid-to-late March after a three week wait before we worked out hang on, the car is on a boat not due until April (Undine).. so I'm already at 7.5 weeks and it's definitely killing me.

Order went in today.
Night Blue Golf GTI Performance Pack with driver assistance, Tint, Focal Splits, Focal Sub. Damn VW for not supplying Dynaudio or Helix sound system or many other features that can be bought overseas...... I would have bought the new Subaru WRX Premium if I had a choice but the wife was involved in the decision process... much quicker and better bang for buck.

I take it you were commenting on the car.

Hello All,

I haven't been on the forum since I ordered my CC TDI 3 years ago. So ... cars up for replacement and looking at something smaller so looking at a Highline with Driver Assist and maybe leather in Pacific Blue. I like to look of the wagon but as this is a second car used to drive to the railway station probably can't justify it. I really should be looking at a Rio or a Polo (my daughter has a 2013 Comfortline with Sport & Comfort pack) but that would be dropping too much from my beautiful black CC.

I've only spoken to one dealer so far and he tells me dealers aren't swapping cars it's either tracking one down myself or waiting the 5 months (again) for the order. Anyway ... this will be our third VW ... so I know they are worth the wait.

Any thoughts on absolute options welcome.
