Just had another delivery update - 7th Feb. Apparently, the car is built and "in transit" so there's light at the end of the tunnel.

For those who have taken deilvery already, how long will delivery be after the sart of the build?

Thanks,

Hi dsarg1 - I've added you to the waiters list. Take a look if you like and see if you can work out any logic...

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 seeems to have huge variances !! with no real explanation........

The logic appears to be vw now producing r's online rather than batches, which is different to last year. We have 48, 49, 50, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7.... Them is a lot of R's. :)

Got an email confirming BW4, offering delivery late Feb. Replied asking for delivery with the new plate. It looks like I really am going to be driving a Scirocco in just over a month.

Hi All

just heard from my dealer that MY Rocc R will be delivered early March :) I checked the paperwork & I actually ordered it on 2nd Oct & not Aug as previously stated, that was the wifes Golf estate & that has now arrived just waiting on the new plate.

Seems like alot of cars are going to be delivered in March

Cheers

Don..
