I've had mine for almost a month now, leased from Leeds Volkswagen.
Absolutely in love with it, stick it on cruise at 70mph on a long journey and I am getting high 30's but yet on a country road its a hoot.
Highly recommended.

It does when its clean. Only problem is it's an absolute b*****d to keep clean. It picks up any slight bit of dirt.

Black looks ace.
Looks good mate, I was driving down the A64 this morning behind a Tornado Red R. Really suits it

I know that dealership very well. Did you go via the fleet people or was it retail?

Yeh I probably was. We were staying there for a wee break. Was great. Saw quite a few R's on our trip.

Loads hitting the roads now smile

Fumming! Spoke with VWCS today and they are now saying BW 19 (unconfirmed), they have been saying BW 18 for last 5 weeks. Ordered in October last year. Not happy at all.

You should be fuming with the dealer surely? If they misled you when you placed your order then thats not right. Its their allocation thats the issue I guess.

Mine moved from 14 to 15 (and had been told 6).

Bearing in mind we are nearly at week 14 then surely BW 18/19 shouldnt actually be a surprise (ie notification comes at BW less 4 weeks). It could hardly be any earlier now.

So in a week or two you should be moved to the next stage. Should get your car in mid June?

Not to worry, just keep it a week longer when you decide to sell it.

There. 1st world problem- solved!

The broker should give you your order number so you can track it on VW website, which dealer/broker have you used?
