Wolfsburg Edition Golf R

[onelouder]

Had an interesting experience with my new Wolfie wagon.

I took it Opticoat for protection, and when I picked it up they said paint had come off the rear bumper ‘like butter’. They thought it must have been respected, badly, somewhere along the delivery process.

Dealer has been good and are taking it back for respraying.

The fronts don't sweep - only the hatch rears.

Anyone have any recent info or experience on how long it takes from the car arriving at the Ro Ro dock , Melbourne, (mine arrived today) to the dealer?

Ouch !

Good to hear that the dealer is going to fix it. What colour is your wagon ?

I believe it can take up to 2 weeks, but I'd say between the 1-2 week bracket. Really has to do with a lot of factors - customs, dealer, delivery etc.

Great news though. I wish mine was on the Grand Hero, it's still in the factory apparently.

White.

I'll be interested in hearing your opinion on the result. I think the Oryx white is a 3 stage job: white base, metallic next, then clearcoat to protect.

Do they think your issue was the factory finish peeling off (ie never prepared properly so didn't adhere), or a respray repair gone wrong ?

My dealer is telling me 4-5 weeks for a car that gets off at Melbourne and comes to Adelaide.

I was told upto 3 weeks but it arrived in Adelaide and was delivered to me within 10 days

I'll cross my fingers. Just spoke to dealer and I have a car that was on the Oberon that docked at Port Kembla on the 6th.
