I have ordered/received my New Tiguan

[Sambalam]

Ordered a 162TSI R-Line on 28/10, they're saying best case scenario is delivery around the 4th August 2022...

Anyone else order recently?

I haven't ordered anything, but was given a similar timeline about a month ago.

(Though for an Allspace.)

Keep an eye on the stock page and see if anything pops up ? That's what I've been doing.

Have decided to forego the R-Line since it's all cosmetic. Now I'm trying to decide whether or not the one Highline Allspace w/Sunroof and Sound/Vision left in QLD is worth it with a Storm Grey interior...

Wow what a dissapointment!

I am still waiting to hear about pricing on the Tiguan R.

The FEB22 arrival for the Tiguan R is becoming FALSE HOPE.

It's funny you mention that, a few weeks ago I called a dealer in WA who were showing one in stock with a VIN and everything, they said "we don't have the car, we're just leaving it there to advertise we can order them"....

A VW dealer needs to advertise they can order VW's on the VW website?.....sure buddy

Depends if they're already built I guess?

You definitely need to keep checking the Stock page. I see 2 R Line Tiguans sitting in the yard at the Wollongong dealership. 1 Grey and 1 blue.

They might be in their yard but they don't show on the stock search page.

Only 8 Tiguans listed on the stock page as at today's date,

Someone may be lucky though enquiring with the dealer.

There used to be a practice where dealers would not inform VW Au that an order was cancelled, so that they could on sell themselves. If they informed HQ of the failed sale, then they risked the car being handed over to another dealership and therefore lose the profit. That practice probably still exists today, so you would find cars at dealerships that are not listed in available stock.

Is the VW stock page more accurate or sites like carsales which shows the actual cars sitting at the dealer? I’ve noticed that the vw stock page has more cars listed than the carsales site

[allypally]

The carsales site is often used by dealers to list phantom cars in order to drum up sales enquries. The VW Stock site is "supposed to be" genuine, listing cars which are either cancelled orders or stock at dealerships. Always look for the VIN being part of the listing. I always check the VIN with Prixcars site to see if and when the car was delivered.
