This is pathetic. Ordered mine on the 14th April and was told BW 27 and now it's unconfirmed BW 37 - mines with a manual gearbox!

thats not a good sign... Thats what i was told when i ordered in March. They have not given me a confirmed build week yet either, I might ring them tomorrow and find out whats going on. I was told there should be no reason why I should not get a Sept 1st delivery.

We have the same bad story
I hope that the BW from 37 returns to 28, like before

Brifely spoke with with VW CS today, they said they had some manufacturing issues in the country of origin which is delaying both R models. Apprently a confirmed dealer order today would be waiting 16 weeks... Which gave me no info on my confirmed order from march lol

Not looking good guys.
Ordered my car at the end of March and was told delivery would be in June (I knew this was optimistic at the time).
Last month was advised by VWCS that the car would be here in August.
Contacted VWCS yesterday and they said they no longer have any scheduled build date for the car, although this can change at anytime.
I guess, there must be serious manufacturing issues, or problems with a supplier.
They must be losing sales because of this. Will reasses the situation in a month's time and if there is no progress, am likely to pull out. Mercedes have a finance offer on the C63AMG, and whilst it is more expensive, the deal is v attractive.

The good news is the VAT increase is with effect from January.. so at least those waiting on R's have a little time before it hits you for another 2.5%!

I'm happy for you!
Good news also for me

Today, my BW isn't yet 37, but it's the 28

I'm very very happy
This means that I could have the R in the first half of August....or at least, at the end of August
