Hoping to start a little thread here to see if there maybe some logic behind what I was reading in another thread, see here http://www.sciroccocentral.co.uk/forum/ ... =13&t=3316" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
So if lots of people who have cars on order in "Candy white" are getting told build week 45, what weeks have others been told for there colour.
I will start things of, I have been told build week 50 for "Viper green"...
Does the colour of car relate to bulid week???

Don't think the theory holds true, it just the Candy White has been a popular order colour this year. As there are Wk43 Candy's on the ship this weekend.

As Chris says, I think its purely coincidental.
If it was the case they would be alot more accurate on advising build weeks & in theory people choosing a less popular colour would have to wait forever until a whole week was filled up which is not viable. VW want the whole colour selection out there to see not restricted to when they are able to fill a week with one colour.
It is also a similar case with shipping within reason, the ship will sail when it full, so near enough but not specifically once a week or once a fortnight.
