Re: Just ordered my 1.4 150 SE Business DSG Estate
Pyerite silver metallic for me. My oddest option is a climate windscreen, which doesn't seem to be available on the online vw planner. I might see if that's causing a problem. Has anyone else noticed the veyron engine is listed in the standard equipment of the vw planner :-bd not sure it's binding t...

Re: Just ordered my 1.4 150 SE Business DSG Estate
Given my trade in is for £150 I'm not sure I'd be as happy
I'll probably see if i can persuade them to give me a hire car after when my mot would be due, given they initially said it'd arrive well in advance of that.

Re: Just ordered my 1.4 150 SE Business DSG Estate
At least now the 1.5 tsi is an insurance option which it wasn't before Christmas, so i think that means it's passed the WLTP in the uk. However, there are relatively few insurers that do recognise it. I'm getting a little frustrated at the delay though, my current car mot is up at the beginning of m...

Re: Just ordered my 1.4 150 SE Business DSG Estate
I read somewhere on the VW website that you'll only get allocated a build week around 4 weeks in advance of the build week itself, so hopefully it'll go to stage 3 in the next 2 or 3 weeks!
I've been chasing an update too, not heard anything yet though

Re: Just ordered my 1.4 150 SE Business DSG Estate
The press release for the 2019 car said they were making changes to the factory for it already, which is encouraging, but they also say that the countdown to the new model starts at the end of January (though that may have been a translation thing as it's awkwardly worded, I'll try and find the orig...

Re: Just ordered my 1.4 150 SE Business DSG Estate
I got a similar discount to the op, though mine is the manual rather than dsg. I'm too anal about when gear changes happen i don't think i could cope with that! Just my personality though
Has the op got his car yet do we know?

Re: Just ordered my 1.4 150 SE Business DSG Estate
I had no indication of that, but depending on timing it's possible i guess! My feeling is the refresh cars won't come along until the other side of the summer but we'll see :ymdaydream: My local dealer was very friendly but took too long, i had to order Monday or lose a section of discount, and they...

Re: Just ordered my 1.4 150 SE Business DSG Estate
I just ordered one as well, some good deals around! I was told late March was most likely but my local dealer, who i didnt use in the end, was saying May. I'm not good at waiting at the best of times, the next few months will be interesting!
