Re: What's your Build Date? (Estimated or Confirmed)

Mine has been pushed back another 3 weeks to week 26, so in the space of 10 days it has gone from week 20 to week 26, I am seriously unhappy, and Wayside have done nothing to help at all. All I get is that their hands are tied by VW and there is nothing they can do. I have written a 3 page complaint...

Re: Scirocco R Line now on VW UK site

Glad I will get the MDI cable. My complaint letter went off to VW yesterday, 3 pages long outlinging all the hassle I have had and how they have taken all the excitement out of buying this car. I have asked them to respond within 14 days stating I either expect compensation for the additional costs ...

Re: Scirocco R Line now on VW UK site

Can someone clear up with the situation with the MDI cable? If I add the Dynaudio upgrade on the website the info says you get the RNS510 and an AUX in socket, have they also taken away the MDI cable now as this is something I was desperate to have!

Re: Scirocco R Line now on VW UK site

I went in to see the dealer today as I was in the area, firstly I wanted to let them know I would be writing to VW to complain about the situation, and secondly to check the situation with cancelling my order. I had an interesting chat with used car sales manager (the new car sales manager was not t...

Re: Scirocco R Line now on VW UK site

I'm about to cancel my order. In the last 10 days my car has gone back 6 weeks from week 20 to 26. A car I ordered on Jan 14th now due for delivery mid August, and I have no idea if that will move again. VW have been a joke and my dealer has no been no use whatsoever. I'll take my £25k somewhere els...

As far as I was told by my dealer, if you have Nav with the RCD510 the cd changer system goes in the armrest, and then you lose the MDI cable.

Re: Scirocco R Line now on VW UK site

I agree about the 510 over the 315, and I definitely want Dynaudio. I'm going to write to VW and complain anyway cos it's going to take more than 6 months to deliver my car at this rate and that is a joke. I'm going to ask for the full audio system as a gesture of goodwill. 510, with Dynaudio, nav a...

Re: Scirocco R Line now on VW UK site

It does appear to be a real mess. Looking at the VW site there are several Winter pack options. If you chooses the Winter pack at £380 then you get the issue you describe but if you choose the Winter pack in conjunction with leather (£275) you don't get that conflict. The difference between the 2 p...

Re: Scirocco R Line now on VW UK site

Right folks, a little heads up on what I have heard from my dealer and found out from the website. Firstly I had ordered the Dynaudio upgrade with the 510 stereo. As the standard spec is now the 310 stereo with nav, if you add Dynaudio you lose the 310 and get the 510, but you also lose the sat nav....

Re: What's your Build Date? (Estimated or Confirmed)

I have been told by my dealer that the car will come straight to them from Portugal. He said it takes 6-10 days to go through the factory, it is then sent straight to the port in Portugal, put on a boat, unloaded at the port in England and goes straight to them. He said it could be as little as 3 we...

Re: What's your Build Date? (Estimated or Confirmed)

Yeah that's what I went with, 3 year PCP with 17,000 miles a year. I'm assured nothing will change from a finance perspective, just got to be patient on delivery

Re: What's your Build Date? (Estimated or Confirmed)

So my car ordered on Feb 9th has now just been pushed back from build week 18 to 27..... Wondering if by the time it arrives it will be a 62 plate or maybe a 13? VW Customer Services have just phoned me to say that build week 27 essentially corresponds to the annual month off at the VW production f...

Re: Scirocco R Line now on VW UK site

Just had another conversation with the dealer, the car is price protected from when I placed the order so they won't even be charing me the £250. Heated seats are also standard now with the leather, and I had paid for the winter pack, but there is not much they can do about that. He is phoning me ba...

Re: What's your Build Date? (Estimated or Confirmed)

I got a call from my dealer today. I've got a Candy White GT on order that was due to be built week 20, he told me he had bad news and good news. I guessed the bad news was the date slipping for the 3rd time, I was right, back to week 23. The good news was that with the spec change on the GT (leathe...
