hi Leanne
I am not sure what to do about the 59 or 10 question......
On one hand I really want it now as it's been 5 months wait, but also given that I have waited 5 months already, another couple of weeks won't hurt.....
As to the vat increase I am not too bothered, as i would be able to pay the extra £500 or so easily once I have been paid at the end of feb
So I am not sure what to do Not much help am I??!!!

haha you sound as confused as me! Although i'm gonna get a 10 I've picked up a new car on new reg day before and i love it!
woo hoo~ they called me today and say the car is ready Wednesday anytime
When I search up the google map, find out it is parked in a warehouse next to the cemetry ...
My R is in production now!
After lots of stressing (have i got one, when is it coming?) dealer says a delivery of no later than mid-march, probably be here end of feb so im waiting for new reg anyway.
If there is a "R" in Hong Kong, I might not get it at all....since Hong Kong is too small to drive~ Step down on accelerator for 0.5 secs, and is time to think when you should press the brake~ haha....
But I would love to see they have in Australia...but it appears it will never happen
Options: Leather, Xenons, Electric mirrors, Heated seats, Digital Radio with Dynaudio, Parking sensors, Winter pack, Cruise Control, Audi R8 front bumper, Caractere Rear bumper with twin exit exhaust, OEM side skirts, Lowered 25mm..... I think that's it...?
I ordered mine on the 21st November and my build week is week 5 so by my guess with 3 weeks to ship, PDI, and 2 week conversion I should have it by mid March.....

Does yours go to Sheerness too or somewhere more local?
My dealer said it still needs to have checks etc but her talks rubbish most the time! He also said it is built in Germany

Not too sure to be honest chuck.
It's a leased company car and the dealers aren't too good at giving much away. I'd love to be able to tarck it but I've not got any build details.
All I've managed to find out since the order went in last September was a rough date and that's it. I got an email before chrimbo saying around February but I chased them up today and I got the good news.

As my current mkV Gti is now running over the orginal lease I expect they'll be pushed to get it on the road a.s.a.p. I'd like a 10 plate but I'd rather have the car sooner.
I ordered 17th October and have a confirmed build week of 9 so hopefully will see it early april..I have a 1.6 golf hire car at the minute after selling my focus st so im about to jump off a bridge.
VW customer services just told me that my car has now gone from estimated to 'confirmed' build week 6. Ordered 2 December so if they can get it over here and ready to go by mid-March am probably looking at 15 weeks end to end (if am lucky) -- so not too bad a wait.
My build week is 4 - rang VW CS on Monday 10am and the nice lady said the Roc was at check point 3 and should be on a boat by next Monday - my dealer gives me no info - does anyone think this may mean my Roc maybe in the UK early next week ie actually in the UK during week 4 ?
Nice one PIP39, I know we were going to compare our build weeks as were ordered around the same time and you were told BW4 and I was BW5 so hopefully mine will be the same as yours and get here earlier than expected!
VW CS have confirmed all built and waiting at the docks and should be on 28th boat - that make mine a week early - hope others are brought forward as well
Mine is confirmed as build WK5, so should be with me, with any luck, for the 1st March. If it arrives earlier I am hanging on until then anyway for a 10 plate, but, if so, it will be tough knowing it is sat there waiting for me at the dealers
