I received a text this morning to say mine has arrived in the UK - any idea on the turn around time from port to ready for collection/delivery?

I think it depends on the dealer receiving it, i had an email from my dealer saying that they need a full 48hrs to to do the PDI, and then it can be delivered...so i think somewhere between 2 days and 1 week would be a good turnaround. But I've not had mine delivered so i a speaking hypothetically smile

Well I have been approved for the finance. Just need to choose a colour now. I just cant decide. I am heading to the dealer tomorrow to see if any of the colours are there to see all shiny.

I got exactly the same spec and terms last week for £287 a month. It's definitely possible as i've had my order confirmed with Warrington VW this week.
Don't suppose you could share (via PM if necessary) who that was with, could you? I'm desperately trying to find a saved quote as it looks like this offer is pretty much over & I missed it frown
I spoke to G2L today and they said the finance company had shut this deal down and they only had saved quotes left at anything approaching those prices.
All I really want is metallic paint and 19"s but best I've found so far is closer to £360 at 6+23 which is just getting a bit too much for comfort.

The 19"s really push the price up I think, have you had a quote without them?
I got a quote on wed for £314/month with g2l

How many miles is that for bud? Can't believe people are going for 8k miles! As previously mentioned, there's no 'fun miles' in that!!

That was 8k but I have a van for work so nearly all will be fun miles! Was considering going to 10k as a safety net but tbh I done 5k a year average on my previous car .

Change it to 10k miles and the price doesn't change though?

Nope, 'fraid it seems it's all over at G2L. Called them Friday only to be told finance company had pulled plug on the deal.
Mentioned the ad on the website only to be told that was now out of date. They had a couple of old quotes left on the system, but they will have expired by Monday, and frustratingly they are shut over the weekend as you say.
Prices are now starting in the order of £360 at 6+23 base model no options frown
