Think I'd give the white version the edge if spec'd with the gorgeous panoramic roof, lovely contrast.
This Oryx white one is nice.

I'm still showing as in transit.

I'm not even sure which port it's going to be coming into but the dealer is 200 miles from sheerness so guessing that one.

I did have a little look on the marine traffic website as well lol but most ships were going to Grimsby.

Think this bank holiday is going to throw in a little extra time.

Got confirmation that mine was onboard City of St. Petersburg which docked in Grimsby this morning.

Ship has set off back now so that, hopefully, means mine is in the UK now at least!

Just back from the VW Nuneaton Dealer, they currently have 2 GTI's in stock. A white 5 door manual, which i took out for a spin, it had been raining so couldn't make the most of it. They also had a black DSG in the show room.

I had my heart set on a white but after seeing it in metallic black, change my mind! After a bit of haggling managed to get a reasonable deal. Not quite what CarWow had quoted me but not far off.

I was told it will take around 4 months until delivery, but potentially could arrive end of July. Should have a more accurate date in a week or so.

Great news, really pleased for you. 2 to 3 days and it should be at your dealer. :)

Mine was build week 16.

Worth asking your dealer and/or VW customer services where your car is, especially with all the issues they've had with the Emden port.
