Another newbie

Hi all

Another newbie here. New company car ordered last week to replace my current MK6 1.6TDI Bluemotion Tech Match.

Prior to that had an A3 Sportback 2.0TDI S-Line with a Superchips remap and prior to that a MK5 1.9TDI Sport.

Didn't have quite the budget I wanted so I've gone for a 2.0TDI SE in Urano Grey and added the 17 inch Madrid alloys with the sports suspension. Already got the chrome exhaust tips sitting here waiting for the car .

I've got hold of the VW order number so at least I can track progress. At the moment I'm still at 'Processing' stage with delivery expected mid March 2014.

Just logged into the tracker and my status now reads 'Your car is currently being built'. Woo hoo!

 

[Mark V1]

You are three weeks ahead of me - so adding two week shutdown on - my car might be built end of January

 

[redbutcher]

Balls - back to stage 3 with build week of 13/01.

Now a jump to stage 5 'in transit'.....

They couldn't make it more confusing if they tried....

Totally - I won't believe the car even exists until it turns up outside my house on the back of a low loader.

I think I'm going to explode - my car is in the UK

Calm down lad - not long now, but in my experience the most difficult period in the whole process.
