Congrats!

Mine is now at the docks (thanks Stacey for the update). Looking at a 16/07 booking...

Wife's now left for the Falklands for 6 months so I should get around 4 months use of it before I have to hand over the keys so she can enjoy it!

Just need to sell her motor so I can pay for it! Anyone want a Viper Green Scirocco!

Window sticker became available a few days ago for me, blend date on the 19th July so maybe they're releasing them a tad earlier now.

Whats peoples best guess for pick up day if blend date is 19th?

I'm just happy i can follow things now!

Add on roughly 3 months from build. Mine was built 15/3, it was delivered 31/5 although I didn't pick it up until the 8/6.
Yours will probably be delivered late September/early October.

Happy to report that my replacement car has now been manufactured, blend date 12th July, ETIS hasn't yet updated with the coils etc. so I assume it's not left the factory but a screenshot from VISTA supplied today from my dealer without asking ( surprise) says gate released and status "shipped".
What's the best way of getting updated and tracking from here on please?
Currently showing ETA to dealer 24 September but as it's being prioritised by Stacey due to previous cock up I'm expecting it sooner.

24 September is only 10 weeks away, id say to make that sort of timeframe you are looking at a prioritised process...

Without any sort of 'VIP' treatment.

3-4 weeks factory to baltimore
1-2 weeks for boat assignment
2 weeks crossing
2-3 weeks in Zeebrugge
1-2 weeks Zeebrugge to dealer.

So thats a to 9-13 week process.

The biggest hold ups always seem to be Factory to Baltimore, and processing at Zeebrugge. Not sure what anyone can do on the US side, but theres scope for jumping the Q in Belgium.

In terms of tracking - you might be able to get updates out of Karen/Stacey for the journey from Flat Rock to Baltimore, and once at Baltimore you can use the usual tracking process everyone here is familiar with.

Good luck..... I reckon to hit mid/late September you are already doing seriously well, especially if the car is still in Flat Rock at the moment.

What's the best way of tracking once it hits Zeebrugge?

Can it be done?

I get built on Tuesday! Woohoo!

Im obviously also hoping for a quick delivery. Aiming for early October.

Kind of hoping that with the factory on shut down for a week at start of July there shouldn't be as much of a back log throughout the process so less waiting time at each stage, ever the optimist mind and prob won't be the case haha

Have build dates for all of September been allocated? I've been told that I should get a September build, but was going to hold off asking the ladies for a week or so.

Stacey just emailed me the date, so I'm guessing they've just had the info themselves :thumbsup:
