I have ordered/received my New Tiguan

[Gladbach]

Thanks for all your help guys.

Yes it's nice to have something tangible.

I sent the dealer an email on Friday and she provided the VIN.

I tried the tracking last Friday and there was nothing there yet so it must be still being built. Will try again when I get the chance.

My order was made just before Xmas and was initially given a July delivery date. That was amended to a May delivery date about 4 weeks ago.

Welcome news in regards to the earlier delivery date I'm sure!!

If you have the VIN, it will pop up in the tracking site in the next week or so. Pretty exiting when it does you'll then know what ship it is on, which will have an ETD listed, so you'll know when it should arrive in Port Kembla.

The tracking of the actual ship on the map doesn't really serve any purpose, other than to give you something to do while you wait

Great to see cars on the water heading to their respective owners. Mines still a while off unfortunately, received the NADCON info today and it's listed my car and all the options but no build date as yet. Ah well was hoping/praying for something earlier than late July, more wishful thinking than anything else.

When did you place the order?

Last week, my dealer told me it was being built and hence the excitement. Ah well they're hoping for an update soon. I'll keep trawling the forums keeping an eye out for tasty morsels of info from everyone in the meantime.

Just read your signature. What car(s) are you currently driving?

It looks like the general route to Australia is via the west-south coast of Africa. Mine has gone from Europe to USA, then through the Panama Canal and NZ. The vessel (Figaro) had left Auckland 2 days ago and next stop will be Brissy on 8th of March!

Yeah, that's the long way 'round! At least it will be here in 2 days! Only a few weeks to wait then.

2005 Nissan X-Trail. So a big step up and my first brand new car.

GLADBACH.....VW is currently looking for the spoke person in order to boost their sale up this year....

i got my tiguan on Sunday, it was good generally, but i dont find it much different from 132kw at all. I cant find the feeling of the pulling force like my previous A5 2.0t, eventhough they are just 7kw different.Tiguan is smooth and quiet, set up inside was nice and impressed, frankly with around 10k-15k more to own Audi Q5, it would give us a lot different in both exterior and interior. i dont really disappointed, however with the engine approximately same output i hope to find something close to and i did not. Anyway, it is a good car.
