    Hi and welcome. You'll be like everyone else on here who has ordered an R-line and is spending the next 6-12 months talking to others that are also waiting for their cars.

    Thanks for the warm welcome Tigger

    i have never had to wait like this for a new car. Normally get it from stock so this is killing me.
    I decided on the Tiggy because I am a bit of a Euro snob and it had all the tech at a good price compared to BMW and was sick of being fleeced by BMW on servicing.
    Never owned a VW before.

    Welcome, I ordered the same colour fully loaded in April, did you order this month? If so, I'd be interest to know what they told you on the eta front? For me it's January/February 2018.

    No. No sunroof. I currently have a big panoramic sunroof like the one in the Tiggy and I think I have used it twice in five years so I decided to save the two grand this time

    I ordered at the end of Feb and they told me July. Now it's October - not happy

    My experience so far has been the opposite, my tiggy is the my18, I personally prefer to wait for the 2018 model.

    I was originally told the eta was Jan / Feb but it is actually scheduled to arrive late December but with the Xmas hols etc, Jan / feb 2018 is more realistic.

    My dealership runs on honesty and integrity, and funny enough, it's not Max Kirwin Mazda! Greetings from new VIC member
