thats ok Simon.
the only people who can use your commission number is the dealer and VW customer services. we have no way of tracking your build using them like they do as they use the VW central order system.

COM (& VIN) numbers are personal to your order/car & we do not advise that you give them out to third parties outside of VW (tuning companies are an exception when it comes to encrypted ecu's)

Popped into the dealer today to show the daughter the car.
Meeted and greeted by a salesman i know there and he asked me if i had been given a date to which i replied week 28 and he reckons it would take 4 weeks to build and should be here by august and i replied i was told mid october or should be september for the new reg...Me hopes anyway.

Any thoughts on this

No new brochures in the show room but some of the paint samples have been removed.
To me they seem a little behind in the loop.

Well Simon_T, I ordered mine (For the second time) on June 4th. I was told week 27.

From going though this whole process before, I know it takes around 4 weeks from the build date to actual delivery. So you should probably be expecting September - or at least do what I am doing and hold out until September so you get the new reg!

Week 28? I'd expect it be ready for collection in early sept. Mine is scheduled for wk 29 and dealer is very confident they'll receive delivery before the end of august.

IHMO VW are not the best at keeping dealers in the loop with changes, updated brochures, model changes etc.

Spoke to the dealer today: confirmed build week 24 (this week) Not bad considering my order date:-)
is 4 weeks a reasonable guess for delivery?

assuming you are in the UK woz 4 weeks is a safe bet. you should be able to get an idea of what ship is it coming from the factory on & when it arrives in the UK here

Order placed - 19th June
Build week given - 30

So with any luck I'm keeping my fingers crossed on early September delivery.

Spec - GT 170 TDI in Rising Blue with leather, parking sensors, bluetooth, dynaudio, smoking pack and folding mirrors.
