My R

So I've had the R for a couple of weeks now - didn't have to wait that long I ordered the last week of Nov and picked up 1st week of March. First impressions are great - really enjoying the car - not sure there is anything negative that I've found yet - just past the 600 miles so slowly starting to ...

Re: Roc R

Looking good, what did options did you go for Just the essentials really - 19" wheels, leather, dynaudio and DAB. If I'd thought about it a bit more, I'd probably have gone for parking sensors and cruise control but probably not necessary really. I like the pano roof but didnt absolutely have ...

Re: Alloy Wheel Corrosion

Have you had the car since new ? They look like poor alloy repairs especially as they all seem to be in places that are prone to damage - just a thought ?

Re: Another... Who is sill waiting? roll call

Got a message from the dealer today - have a confirmed build week of 5 - so delivery should be in March - given that I only ordered on the 27th November - that could be as little as a 3-4 month wait a lot shorter than I was expecting and much shorter than others are having to wait - the process seee...

Re: Another... Who is sill waiting? roll call

Not sure of the details, I'll contact the dealer to find out - they never mentioned they had a canceled order but then they have 4 VW dealerships so maybe the cancellation was from another - they did mention they'd be using an allocation from one of the others as they had used theirs. If I find out...

Re: Another... Who is sill waiting? roll call

Not sure they are leading me on as I know the salesperson very well this will be the 7th car I have ordered from them - this is part of the email they sent "Volkswagen have advised that your order has been accepted, they used one of our current orders to do this, so it might speed things up. It...

Re: Another... Who is sill waiting? roll call

So I ordered mine on the 27th November 2010 - just got a message from the dealer today to say that VW have accepted my order (which is very nice of them !!) and that estimated build week is week 5 - the dealer has pointed out that this will probably change - but even then this is a lot earlier than ...
