WooHoo - I take delivery of my MY11 125TSI tomorrow!

[oz_train]

Hi all,
definitely won't be able to sleep tonight! I'm taking delivery of my new Tiggy tomorrow! I've tracked every bit of its journey from Bremerhaven to Newcastle, and finally the wait is over!
I've checked the list on "things to look out for when taking delivery", but there's one more question I'd like to ask: for a brand-new off the ship Tiggy, how many km should be on the clock? What would be acceptable/unacceptable?

Will post photos of my new pride & joy soon (if I can get out of it for long enough to take a photo!). Heck, I'll probably SLEEP in it (well maybe that's a bit over the top!)

regards,
John.

Congrats!! You'll love the car for sure.

When I picked mine up, it has about 16km on the clock.

Edit to the title of this thread: WooHoo: I took delivery of my MY11 125TSI yesterday!!!
What a fine machine! I really can't explain how I feel about it, but I probably don't need to, as most of the members on this forum probably feel the same! Exhilarated probably comes close!

By the way, I had 19km on the odo at handover... I'm happy with that!

Congratulations! Can't wait to get mine

Has it met all your expectations?

Hi Vince_S, all,
it hasn't just met them, it has exceeded them! What an awesome piece of engineering! Never mind the power plant, the 7 speed DSG, the superb handling - just the thought that has gone into building this car is astounding! So many features in such a superb package...

LOL! Thats excellent! Just what I wanted to hear!

Guess thats why we bought them to begin with. A superb package indeed.

Congrats again (now gimme gimme mine!!)

Do you know where yours is (marinetraffic.com)? Shouldn't be long now if ETA is mid March! I was tempted to go and watch the ship which mine arrived on sail into Pt Kembla, but it was a weekday and a bit far from Newcastle...

Hang in there, you'll love it!

I do, have been watching it the past few days

It left Melbourne and is on its way to Port Kembla now - so only a few more days I think.



I could go watch it but knowing its right there out of arms reach would kill me lol

Happy to wait for it to get to the dealer

Delivery km is 10-20km. Up to 50km is acceptable on the clock if they take the car for a QC run (maybe 1 in 50 cars). Above that they disconnect the odometer
