i didnt' want to make a new thread, but I think my query is along the lines anyway.
im looking to get the 118tsi in about 2.5 weeks time, but im worried about the waiting times (~4-5 months wait) after speaking to one of the sales guys back in July. didn't have enough funds back 2 months, but do now :)
anyway, when i was speaking to sales, he did a look up in his systems to see which cars they already had in the country and he ran off the couple that were in.
im not wanting to get alot of options, all i want really is sat-nav and park-assist (RVC would be bonus) and would prefer any other colour aside from black, but colour is not TOO big a deal.
when he went thorugh his systems, he told me there were a couple in the country (back then), that had sat-nav and park-assist (im assuming these options are popular?) and some other stuff.
but that was two months ago.
im worried at the moment as well, my parents (im 24, not 16 lol and paying for 95% of the car) are saying if there is a wait time of 4-5 months, i should have backups in mind (because of the long wait) and the peugeot 308 and Renault Megane were thrown up as options. to be honest, whilst i love the styling of the 308, i really would very much prefer the 118tsi and VW, so im in sort of a dilemma.
anyone who recently bought a MKVI 118tsi know how the situation is at the moment? any rough ideas? i can phone chatswood classic and ask, but i figured what's the point if im going to get it in 2.5 weeks anyway, alot can change in the time.
cheers! sorry if my post sounds pedantic, but im actually quite nervous and worried :S
I'd prefer to wait 4 months and catch a bus than end up with either a Pug or a Renault.
No point worrying about something that is out of your control, give your dealer a call tomorrow and see what they actually have available.

My MkVI 118TSi, ordered 2 weeks ago, is currently on a boat heading to Sth Africa. It is due in Sydney on 5/10/2010. My car is manual with Sports Pack the only option. My sales guy told me there was another one like it on the boat, as well as others with different options.Quote:

I placed my order and paid my deposit on the 23rd of June, I was told yesterday that my car is due to arrive in country on 24 November, with around 15 days after that to clear customs and allow for transport, dealer delivery etc.Quote:
