When did you order, when is it arriving?

My build week was week 37. Ordered 13th May.

I ordered 25th May and was build week 32. VZ2 310 same as you. All seems so random. Good luck. Hope you get allocated a ship and are in possession soon

I just wonder if the order I placed on the 13th May wasn't actually ordered by the dealer on this day but they might have ordered the car much later.
Just thinking aloud.

I’m sure this happens more than dealers would like to admit. They’ve been known to engineer orders to make sure that monthly sales targets are met.

Possibly. As mine was ordered on 1st July it would be the start of their new monthly targets so might have had something to do with it. Also it was the day that the MY22 was launched and mine was spec'd with the optional virtual tailgate which was a new option for MY22 and not available on the V2 prior to the 1st July, so again not sure if they wanted to get the order in early because of that.

Just had confirmation from the dealership that my car has landed in the UK and is currently on a transporter, en-route to them. Should be here either today or tomorrow. Happy days. Must have been on the Aquarius Ace after all.
My dealer goes 5 to 7 days till the car goes to them 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. Where you collecting from?

Just been told my V2 190 has finished being built and is on its way to port. Should be at the dealer by Mid November!:love:
Great news. And you ere week 39? That's pretty good going. Maybe they've just had a delivery of semiconductors. There's hope for the rest of us yet!

There are also three vehicles carriers at the port of Barcelona. United Spirit, Laudace and Neptune Avra.

That’s right so not a bad turnaround! Hopefully we see a 12 inch screen in there when we collect it considering it was before week 40! I’ve got my fingers crossed for the rest of you. Since I’ve gone for a 190 4drive there may be some pushing to the top of the queue so they can get some more of these on the road. I heard they were planning on a big batch of these late September so perhaps they had everything in place for it?

I'm hoping that they are planning to push a few more 245 2.0tsi Formentors out as at the moment there is hardly any in the UK. I think I only know one person on the forum who has received one so must be the first in the UK. There is also a lack of information out apart from watching reviews on the MK8 Golf GTI and Octavia VRS
