[Scooby Doo]

Good news heard my Eos has arrived at the docks, just waiting for it to clear customs. Have sent cover note and no. plate cert to the dealer, so all being well collection date set for next wednesday (20th)! Getting very excited now - just holding my breath in case of any set backs! (Insurance Co haven't helped by sending a cover note for my existing car but sorted that now!).

Cheers and good luck from Collingwood, Canada! Lots of great EDA's!

You lucky get!!!

What build week were you?

 

[Scooby Doo]

What build week were you?

I don't know but ordered on 14th March and told 16 weeks so it's actually arrived sooner than expected! Yipee for me!

I make that 14 weeks from order to delivery.

What????????????????????

I ordered mine 28th February and am still waiting? How the hell did that happen?

Is it my VW dealer being a lazy git or what?

The squeaking wheel gets the oil!

Apparently alot of it depends on what spec you have ordered, with higher spec models taking a bit longer.

Well Gavin,
With all the "goodies" you have on yours, hope you are waiting forever! Grandkids here now ... so lots of chances for top down driving! Cheers!

Can't think why. It takes only about 3 or 4 hours for the car to go down the line and can't take more than a few minutes to fit this or that option! Computers control it all.

Sounds like an excuse to me!

Contrats ! Hope you get lots of sunny days with the top down. !

On a unrelated matter - I've noticed the word EDA being used a lot of times - what does this mean?

I suspect that scheduling of production comes AFTER known availability of parts. Could be that some of optional extras are ordered on less frequent cycle or have longer lead times.

Today's the day

Very very giddy today! A couple more jobs to get done then I'm off to pick up my new baby! Have checked with the garage that everything ok and it is so I'll be amending my status in the member poll later this afternoon!

[GOgg]

Well, did you get your wheels??

 

[Scooby Doo]

Yes it's here!!

Been grinning like a cheshire cat since yesterday afternoon! Have been cruising - top up - top down! Really pleased with it, haven't yet decided on a name though!

Managed to get a free set of mats but not enough petrol to get me home!! Can't have everything though and I got it for a good price so I'm more than happy.

...can you tell I'm happy??!!!

Sue

 

[schoolhousefred]

Congratulations Sue,

Hope your weather is great at least for next few days so you get full enjoyment of your new, un-named baby! Cheers!

 

[Gavster]

I echo Fred's conratulations.

Let us know how you get on.

 

[GOgg]

Congratulations, many happy EDAs ahead (and may the sun shine)
Best wishes

[Scooby Doo]

No visible tail pipes

Sorry for delay in reply to your question Gogg, have been to ascot and aerosmith this weekend in the rain!!
