My order number is appearing on the vw tracker now but its coming up as black pearlescent when it should be white

Mine says the same but I questioned the colour on live chat and they said the order is for pure white and to ignore the tracker as they have been having issues with it for days.

Ordered mine on Monday (5dr manual Nav) through NVS £2400 down 24x£141 10k

Order number through on Thursday, showing with factory (originally showing black but now updated to white)

Live chatted today and got a build date of 02/12/17 expected with dealer 4 to 6 weeks after

What was the admin fee?

Also, shouldn't that be 23 x £141 and build date of 2016 not 2017.

I was told I'd get my order number within three days of my order but on the third day I dropped them an email to ask if they could let me have it, they sent it me within 10mins. Think it's been a crazy busy week for them.

[Liam-pwxru]

Same, emailed them on the 5th day which would of been the day you got yours got told it's not been loaded by VW yet, hopefully get an answer Monday

[cheshire_cat]

I'm also in for a white 5 door manual, no options.

£1220 + 23 x £203
10k miles
7.2p/mile excess

£240 admin fee via Freedom Contracts.

(all incl vat.)

All considered £266 per month. Not the keenest deal compared to some here but I was quite late to the party and am happy with the deal still. Taking the same car on our company car scheme it would cost nearly that per month in tax alone, plus the loss of the car allowance cash equivalent.

Build week 07/11/2016, Birmingham Volkswagen.

My first lease and first new car so quite excited!

[Liam-pwxru]

Finally got mine build week 14/11/16 so expecting Jan delivery probably

That is so cheap.

Did the manufacturers used to make bigger profits on their cars, or do they now just have higher margins so they can sell them so 'cheap'

I just went on the chat thing and they came up with build week 50! Thats a long time......

And checked again today as had to return some docs to the dealer and it is now an unconfirmed week 46!

[JTsp33d]

Lastest build date for me is slightly better than next year now. 1st week in December.

[breeza]

I got told similar on live chat

[philahilla]

Mine still says "With the factory". Been like it for almost 2 weeks now. Anyone else in the same boat?

Mine is the same, it's been 10 days so far. I have been given a provisional build date of 12th December though on the live chat.

[johnwilliams77]

Going to be a long wait. I was given end of Nov build so presume a nice present to myself in Jan!

It won't change from "with factory" until four weeks before your confirmed build date. You can go on the VW website chat and ask for your provisional build date.

[cerbfan]

How do you get onto this VW live chat? I've been on the website but cannot find it anywhere and my order is still not showing up at all on the tracking page. I think it might be because I'm offshore and the internet is so pathetically slow. If anyone is on there and wants to ask about the BW status for 26484742 it would be appreciated.
