I ordered through Hub leasing on 04/04 at mid-day. I was given an order number the following day and it is showing in the tracker.

I am getting my car delivered late in Sept.

this will change every week - use VW live chat each Monday for an update

I ordered a GTI on 03/03 was given a build date WC 10/04 car is now showing in transit with an average transit time of 3 weeks, i ended up cancelling that order as I got one of the new cheaper build slots but that's just to give you a idea or what time scales were.

Thanks! I've been a longtime lurker here but I'm currently the notsoproud owner of a 1.4 vauxhall astra . Since I will soon be the proud leaser of a GTI I felt compelled to join.

You can be a Pistonhead in the lowliest of cars, it's the love of cars and driving that defines one, not the depth of your pockets or your 'weapon of choice', but I'm sure you'll appreciate the difference

Likewise, build date last week was week 24. Now advised its build week 23 (05/06/2017) by VW Chat.

VW chat have told me build week 25, 19th June, but to check again on 29th May for a more accurate date.

My tiguan R Line changed EVERY week until it was actually starting to be built - I would just sit back and forget about it chaps still you see it being built.

[manracer]

I got my SLi today, vw chat tell me it's week 30 but may come forward a few weeks, to check back end of May

Question - does the winter pack that comes with the GTI mean heated seats?

Heated seats do form part of the winter pack.
