Not on here they don't.

I waited over 7 months for my GTI, and some members have waited in excess of 9 months for their cars (when the Mk6 R was first released).

Some over 12 for the R

And if you've just seen the Mk7 R and have decided you want it, well start counting the months now

Agree, my friend waited 2 weeks for his Honda and he thought that was torture till he heard my story. Well as people keep telling me, its going to be worth the wait. I can't be bothered waiting that long for a hyundai too lol

glad we have the forum to rant to when in frustration. most days i'm good with waiting, but when i see a new mk7 driving past me, i get a little inpatient.

Only 'car people' get it. It's reassuring to know that there are others.

Did a deal recently on a 103TSI Highline. Pick up this Friday. Trading in the MK6 GTI

Mines on the 'morning Caroline'. Due to land in Melbourne on the 18th oct. getting close now.
