Re: New GTI + delivery
I don't expect to see my new car now for well over a month at least!
Re: New GTI + delivery
Mine left PE around the 6th of March and still haven't taken delivery of the car. If I collect it next week it would have been 8 weeks from shipping to delivery.

Re: New GTI + delivery
My dealer said expect 6 weeks...I bet I can add to that.
When I had my 2010 GTI from Spain ordered in January, got it in the April. Repeat for my 2015 GTI. So easy then.

Re: New GTI + delivery
Hi folks, I appreciate it's all a little random but a quick update if it helps - I got a 5b update on Wed 17th (car at Emden) - spoke to my dealer today who confirmed it has now arrived in the UK (Sheerness) - I've not had a confirmation on the app/SMS yet but usually comes the day after. Dealer isn't sure when it'll be ready for me to collect but I think they say 7-10 days to cover it
Re: New GTI + delivery
I dont want to burst your bubble but I would take that with a pinch of Salt mine has been in the Sheerness since 17/04 (Also never got the 5C notication, only a screen shot and notification from dealer showing arrived in UK) and still no news on when its going to be transported or avaialble to collect, had a email last night saying they still havent got a delivery date from UK port but would hope to have one soon.PoloGIT+ wrote: Fri Apr 26, 2019 1:41 pm Hi folks, I appreciate it's all a little random but a quick update if it helps - I got a 5b update on Wed 17th (car at Emden) - spoke to my dealer today who confirmed it has now arrived in the UK (Sheerness) - I've not had a confirmation on the app/SMS yet but usually comes the day after.

Re: New GTI + delivery
Think ours have traveled together, in Sheerness over the weekend, got a call Tuesday to say it was there. At 12 today I got a call from the dealer to say the car is booked onto a transporter and will arrive in Barnstaple on 8/5, plan is I collect it on 10/5. Tracker still says in transit since it got out of the factory in early March.Chris001 wrote: Fri Apr 26, 2019 2:02 pmI dont want to burst your bubble but I would take that with a pinch of Salt mine has been in the Sheerness since 17/04 (Also never got the 5C notication, only a screen shot and notification from dealer showing arrived in UK) and still no news on when its going to be transported or avaialble to collect, had a email last night saying they still havent got a delivery date from UK port but would hope to have one soon.PoloGIT+ wrote: Fri Apr 26, 2019 1:41 pm Hi folks, I appreciate it's all a little random but a quick update if it helps - I got a 5b update on Wed 17th (car at Emden) - spoke to my dealer today who confirmed it has now arrived in the UK (Sheerness) - I've not had a confirmation on the app/SMS yet but usually comes the day after.

Mine arrived in the UK on the 23rd and will reach the dealer on 30th so 7 days turn around, if that helps anyone.

Re: New GTI + delivery
That’s good to know, thanks - my dealer isn’t too far from the port so I’m hoping that bit of this whole journey is quick anyway!Chris001 wrote: Fri Apr 26, 2019 2:02 pmI dont want to burst your bubble but I would take that with a pinch of Salt mine has been in the Sheerness since 17/04 (Also never got the 5C notication, only a screen shot and notification from dealer showing arrived in UK) and still no news on when its going to be transported or avaialble to collect, had a email last night saying they still havent got a delivery date from UK port but would hope to have one soon.PoloGIT+ wrote: Fri Apr 26, 2019 1:41 pm Hi folks, I appreciate it's all a little random but a quick update if it helps - I got a 5b update on Wed 17th (car at Emden) - spoke to my dealer today who confirmed it has now arrived in the UK (Sheerness) - I've not had a confirmation on the app/SMS yet but usually comes the day after.
