Bought a lapiz blue Arteon Shooting Brake yesterday. On the Hoegh Trigger due to land in Port Kembla in early June and I'll have it by July 4 at the latest.

I am VERY interested to see how you go with this, that's exactly the car I'd be after. Good to know the wait times are good - initial indications were that an order places mid-May would result in an August delivery. My current car is 3yo in September...

Manaz,

I got lucky here - I called the dealer re a demo they had on carsales (blue liftback) and they mentioned they had a lapiz wagon on water due to showroom on July 4.

It turned out to be the colour I wanted with a sunroof so I did the deal. $82.5k all up including some extras and fancy plates. I am happy with the deal given the numbers other dealers are talking about. And it is a 22 build.

They offered $38k trade for mine so I will throw it online and see if I can do better, otherwise I will hand it over in early July. I know there is one other lapiz wagon at a dealer somewhere as I visited the holding facility on Friday and someone there mentioned it had gone out on Thursday evening - but I do not know where.

Am thinking of getting the roof wrapped to match the sunroof much like the liftbacks have... otherwise not much else to do with it at this stage...
