Exciting!! We saw the first one out of a showroom today! Fingers crossed mine might be built early if they're ahead of schedule (fingers crossed)!

Now have my prospective build date from my dealer, should be Week 27, first week of July.
Pretty good as I ordered May 4th.

I just bought car today and my dealer gave me estimate of 6 months.... I can't believe it

No way?! That's crazy. Did they say why?

Did you shop around?

Its because I ordered automatic dsg. I confirmed with Volkswagen Spain the same if it were manual shift it would be only 3 months

I collected my SE 115 Manual today. The salesman at the dealership told me that they are now quoting October for any new orders! Seems I got in at the right time (Ordered 26th April).

That's so exciting! I've also ordered the SE 115 manual - hopeful for collection next week. How are you finding it so far?

Goodness knows, I'm hoping around the second week of July, hopefully before!

My salesman called to ask if I remembered "what week it was" ie the car being built.

I politely told him it had already been built 🙄

So how long are people staying on stage 2 order with factory?

I believe that it stays at stage 2 until 4-5 weeks before production.

I've been at stage 2 since 14th June! I've lost the will to live. But my dealer is saying build week 34.

There is not a 'queue' in the normal meaning of the term, it can be quicker if the dealer has some unallocated orders available to them, it can be slower if an option (like DSG) has a longer lead time.

Once at stage 2, the dealer will have access to the latest factory estimate and that will keep on changing so it is worth nagging the dealer regularly. Mine has moved to production in the first week of September and we ordered in mid April !

 

[spc369]

Their supposed to be ringing me next week, ill dig more then. Hoping oct sometime

 

[spc369]

Moved to stage 3 today, dealer says build week first in sept... oct delivery is looking good

As you ordered much earlier than me and weve been given the same build week im guessing theyre pushing uk orders ahead of brexit :?:

My DSG switched to stage 3 week 36 today as well.
