Scirocco Central

Noooooooooooooo!

That is pretty annoying. Hopefully you can impress upon your dealer how disappointed you are and how you're looking forward to the free tank of fuel they'll be giving you to make up for the extra delay!

Hang in there!

PS: let me know when yours finally arrives - I want to know if yours has the "Mirror Down" option in the convenience menu (the topic of much discussion elsewhere in this forum). Mine doesn't. Be interesting to see as they must have been built in the same or adjacent build weeks.

jim, its here...arrived tuesday...pick up on thursday

My news have just got even better, not only do i not have a build date after ordering back in early august, i have been told that my order will not start to be built until January and expected delivery would be late march early April!!! on top of this i was told the price will go up in line with the recent price increase and VAT - i was previously assured it was price protected.

This is the first VW i have ever ordered and to be honest it is leaving a sour taste in my mouth, no matter the quality of the car the service sucks.

Pish

Could I recommed that you get your commission (com) number from your dealer & ring vw customer services, they might be able to give you some more information & explain why on earth this is happening.

I certainly believe your order should be price protected as it was ordered before 1st Sept.

That is completely unreasonable

I think someones having your pants down, sounds like they sold there allocation before you came along and are now bullsh*ting you.

My order went in (to company cars) September 23rd, they issued it with the lease company with delivery schedule of October 1st, meaning a.s.a.p !

I've been ringing the VW dealership who we deal with every week since and they've still not received anything through yet

So much for getting my Roc in February, it's looking more like April now

Just been told by my dealer that I have an unconfirmed build week of 47! Not bad considering I only ordered on 15th September I won't be happy until it's confirmed though
I hope others who are also waiting get good news soon

hardly surprising i havent slept that great.....pick up tody at 4pm!!!!!

yep, i think you are right. i have been in contact and leaving it with them a few days. if they cant do anything for me i will be cancelling - 8 months or so for a new car is crazy. i have been looking at second hand ones which is an option so all might not be lost - at least i wont have to wait

Woo hoo.....got it today at 4pm. must say my dealer has been great and was fab at handover!

not had a great chance to go for a drive as yet, but the weekend will be great.

Company car ordered 3 weeks ago guys
Spoke to Garage and Week 49 Build confirmed, middle of jan deivery
Can't wait (with all new changes too )

Count yourself very lucky indeed. I ordered mine on 30 June and have only just got a confirmed bw of 43. So, you've got yours a whole 2 months quicker that a lot of people on this borad.

I too will miss out on the model updates slated for bw45.. however I don't care anymore.. I just want the darn car.

Trix,

That's good news.

Any reason why its only taking a week from factory to dealer? Have they started flying them in........

C.

don't know my dealer is totally bemused by it too
i can only assume that it got clear of the factory very quick, cleared germany friday & hit the shipping schedule just right to ship over the weekend
there is hope for people out there

S

I'd better get my skates on retiring my Mk2 cos by your timescales I might get mine before the end of the month

C.

Happy days - mine is arriving on Friday

So that was ordered 9th June, built week ending September 11th (37?) and now only 3 days till delivery!
