Tracking... HOW MUCH!!!

Unfortunately and inevitably, me and the roc managed to fall into a dirty great pot hole yesterday. As a result the tracking now seems to be adrift by a few centimeters. Spoke to my dealer today who wanted £69 + VAT to sort it!!! (Thought this was a little high) After some serious arm twisting, mana...

Re: Color decision black/white?

I'm on the fence with this. On one hand, the white is by far a better colour for the 'roc. However, there seems to be alot of white ones popping up. Example, 5 delivered into my dealers this week alone!!! Black would be a bit more unique, but i think i would still go with the white. What specs are y...

Re: New Year Delivery

Mine arrived at the dealers this morning, and i'm having it on saturday. But they said i could have had it on friday.

I think it all depends on how busy they are as the P.D.I doesn't take very long and neither does a Valet.

If i were you, I would kick up a stink and go after some freebies!!

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

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

Hi all, i've had my build week confirmed as week 48, by the dealer today.

Am I looking at christmas delivery? Or am i being too optimistic? Reading earlier posts, it seems as if the shipping times have greatly improved.

Never used vw before, so can anyone shed any light?

Cheers
