Go with what you want.. but don't expect the Wolfsburg to offer any additional value hold down the track.

Yeah depends. From what I see the only real difference between a Wolfie and a fully loaded R-line is the HUD. Yes both have the same wheels (just different colour). The rest is identical (apart from a few black ascents and trims).
A Wolfie is a 2018 build car only so if you were to get an R-line then get it as a 2019 build. Otherwise a 2018 build is fine too & more importantly available now! Who knows what this new regulation on the Stink bugs will cause further delayed with future shipments.

In terms of resale, a good indication of how easy to sell a car is how popular they were as a new car. I think Wolfsburg resale will be OK, but again second-hand market can be a bit fickle. It may also date more than the standard R-line. Though it looks like there's more Wolfsburgs getting sold at the moment vs. standard R-line who knows what people will be wanting in 3-5 years time when you next decide to trade up.
That's crystal ball stuff. What you can do though is buy the car you really want andbe happy with your purchase. The enjoyment of the car should outweigh some small resale difference (if any) come time to trade in.

Hopefully soon, John.
Currently considering whether to wait this out or cancel the order. Not that impressed with the thought our cars are also being 'treated' - whether that is with chemicals or otherwise. So delay + 'tainted' car is making me rethink this..
I just think the Wolf is a good car in its class with a decent price - hence my reluctance to pull the pin.
