Picked our Max up today. Really pleased with it. It's so long since we test drove it that I'd forgotten how great it was to drive.

Hope everyone whose waiting gets theirs soon.

Great to see people getting told their Max and Tours are on the way. We picked our Max up today. What a lovely car. Its so long since we test drove it, I'd forgotten how nice it was.

Hope everyone gets theirs soon.

Will be interested to know though has anyone who had BW10 or later actually taken delivery of a car yet?

That's my BW7 just arrived in the UK (Tyne). There seems to be long delays.

I guess different destination ports may have different backlogs, but mine came in via sheerness.

As far as I know mine was Tyne.

That's my BW7 in the UK

That's my BW7 in the country.

I wonder they have been saving them up in Emden so they can bulk move them on double time over the bank holidays.

Ober the last few weeks, I've been watching port activity and have been seeing at least 2 ships a week going to Grimsby. Normally they are within a day of each other.

The dealerships close to the port get cars delivered very quickly. Newcastle/Silverlink Lookers and Sunderland/Durham Pulman branches typically get their cars 3-5 days after ship arrival. My S3 is coming into Grimsby port for the Grimsby dealership and I've been told the same - very little time fro...

Who're you buying from? Pulman? Lookers?

From a dealer in Scotland

I did have another thought about this. How many cars are dropped off each time the boat comes in. Eg the 2nd last boat to the Tyne came from Emden and went straight back there? I made the assumption the boat was full. So, how many vehicle transporters do they have for each port? And how many cars do...

FYI spoke to VW customer services on webchat today, as I’ve still heard no news from my Tour that had been in build since week 7/8… so 6-7 weeks now….

Yes, I'm still waiting for my BW7 too.

Yep, I've been watching for weeks now for my BW7. Expecting it to come into Tyne.

Delighted to see some of the August 2021 orders finally being delivered.

Hopefully we'll see some max appearing soon as well

Hope so, my Max is apparently at the port waiting for a ship.

Mine is also at Emden now too, I am sure I have seen screenshots of people tracking boats, is this still possible? Yes, vesselfinder.com I *think* the 3 ports here are Tyne (I think that covers north England and Scotland), Grimsby and Sheerness (?). The port in Germany is Emden. The last I looked t...

You can filter in the map on whether to show all chargers or just those that are compatible with wecharge (or just Ionity). There is no definitive list of compatible CPOs. Great thanks, I hadn't noticed the WeCharge filter. Disappointing to see that the Tesco Podpoints, that are covered with VW log...

Does anyone know where I can get a list of charging companies on WeCharge eg BPPulse etc? Also, can anyone advise on the following: If I look at the WeCharge map I see chargers which have grey pins. If I look at them, there's no information. However, some chargers have a green pin and I can see info...

My prices are North Lanarkshire

You are sooooo lucky - I'm really jealous, Fingers crossed it won't increase. With those prices you won't need to scrabble around trying to find cheaper alternatives.

From today, in the Highland Council area (whole of the north of mainland Scotland, including routes such as the North Coast 500) the cost of 50kWh chargers will rise to 70p per kWh. The cost of the destination chargers (22kWh or less) will be 35p per kWh. This is for the Highland Council chargers - ...

My tour is also allegedly starting to be built next week.

Anyone else in the week 7 club?

Yes. My Max has been at unconfirmed week 8 for a few weeks. Was told on Friday that it was now confirmed week 7.
