I also got confirmation from the dealer in my country that for the 1.5 eTSI engines, the current waiting time is around 8 months, apparently because of some engine parts shortage.

I asked my dealer (Sinclair VW Cardiff) about this specifically last week, citing some of the posts here about possible delays.
He basically said to ignore anything I read in the forums, but interestingly he didn’t outright say there wasn’t an issue. As far as I'm aware, my car which was ordered end of August is due sometime in December - although I’ve just asked him to alter the order slightly so that might go out of the window.
Anyway, if I hear different I’ll post back here.
Mk 3 1.5 150 eTSi Elegance Nightshade Blue (on order)
21 plate Mk2 1.5 150 Elegance Nightshade Blue
17 plate Mk2 2.0 TDi Caribbean Blue

I wanted to go for an Elegance with metallic paint when I ordered mine back in February. However VW marketing have set the list price for that combination at £40020 ie £20 over the £40k threshold so the road tax for the next 5 years (years 2-6) will be £600 per year !! Makes metallic paint look expensive.. I went for the Match instead which was under the £40k.

The P11D price, which is what determines the road tax, for an Exclusive with Metallic is actually £39,705. That said I bought a Match as the larger wheels, massage seats and area view were not things I really wanted/needed.

How long have your cars taken to come from the factory?

There’s a few hybrids around in stock. They’re not selling as well as the non-hybrids or diesels.
Possibly deals to be had

I think this might be a good idea I have seen it in other forums
In the signature they have been putting in what they have orderd and then date it was orderd and then delivery date given and then delivery date
Which would be great for some one like me to give an idea of delivery date?
If that makes sense
