Re: Reflections on first seven weeks of ownership.

Overall I am confident that we made the right choice going fulyl electric but have to admit it is a very Middle Class hobby. Initial costs plus need for space for home charging (IMO) will preclude a large number of drivers being able to consider switching. Public charging would not be a viable opti...

Re: Delivery time

Ordered: 01/12/2021 Family Pro - king red. 32 week delivery 😫 1st December order and expecting to be in it in July is really rather optimistic, I'm afraid - unless you have taken over a pre-existing order. There are orders from August (2-3 months before yours) that have provisional build dates for ...

Re: Delivery time

Car arriving at dealers tomorrow. Arranged to pick up next Wednesday. Getting a little apprehensive now. Wow! Very happy for you, although I can’t help but also be a little bit confused at why mine isn’t expected until 4-5 weeks after yours - despite being 1 week apart! 😅 Max vs Family Pro - more c...

Re: Delivery time

That's great news smuj. I've now got a confirmed build week of week 49 (6th - 12th Dec) So going by rough calculations of 8 weeks after that, I'm looking at the end of Jan\beginning of Feb. I don't mind the wait, nice to have an idea of what kind of time frame though. They will shut down for around...

Re: Delivery time

The Life doesn't come with the different seats, and only post Dec 1st orders will have the new 'packs'. Mine was Life + Interior style plus + assistance plus + infotainment plus. Only the government grant made it worthwhile not getting the Max as I didn't really need performance. I'd be disappointe...

Re: Delivery time

It'll be the same as the Life, which doesn't have it fitted. (same panels as the MY22) It's the life I've ordered, but with the assistance plus pack, which now isn't an option on the life. I guess no-one really will know what's coming untill the first my22.5s are built. Based on the 'leaked' info, ...

Re: Delivery time

The communication we saw copied from the VW Facebook post did make it clear there would be a difference between cars ordered before and after Dec 1st though? Cars with build week 51 and after but ordered before Dec 1st won't get the Full Monty MY22.5 according to that. It still seems very strange t...

Re: Delivery time

My dealer hasn't even told me that it's left the factory - I tend to get all my updates from the VW tracker emails. Equally, if I asked, they probably wouldn't answer me until after it's on my drive. I'll no doubt be spending the whole of december like Vincent Vega https://c.tenor.com/lx2WSGRk8bcAAA...

Re: Delivery time

We ordered on the 17th August and ours still hasn't been allocated a build week. I've just got off the phone with the dealership it's been ordered through (Listers of Straford) who said it's likely to be June 2022 now... :o I also queried whether our car would get the Model Year 2022 specification ...

Re: Sports Suspension?

I nearly ordered the Sports Pack at the time, but couldn't understand quite what it included, other than "Sport suspension" Adaptive dampers mainly. Kind of confusing, though, as the 'Sports Pack' was only applicable to Life, Style, and Family - not available for Max or Tour. The 'Plus' p...

Re: Delivery time

Dealer emailed me a few minutes ago informing me that our Tour hasn't started being built yet. Apparently they checked a lot of outstanding orders with the factory on Monday and only their orders with confirmed build weeks of 36 and 37 are commencing build. Current dealer prediction for collection ...

Re: Kings Red now a colour option on VW website

I suspect dealers saying that the colour change would put you back 6 months on delivery are suffering from “Can’t be **sed” syndrome! Not so. You've (as far as I've always known) never been able to change your spec with VW once you've got a build week confirmed; it kicks you out of the queue, and s...

Re: Kings Red now a colour option on VW website

The older brochures specify electric, massage seats in the detail of the pricing of the pack. That said I also think it’s a non-issue, but people should know what they’re getting when they’re ordering a vehicle! Not electric, as noted. I don't think it has ever said that. image_2021-12-01_152151.png

I can't see anything in the older brochures that references them either, so might well be a non-issue
