Simonl Posted November 23, 2005 Report Share Posted November 23, 2005 VW-2005/09-093450 Dear Mr. XXXXXX (me), Thank you for your further e-mail, the contents of which we have noted with utmost regret. We like to inform you that unfortunately, there was a production backlog for the delivery of your new Golf GTI, but it should be delivered ex factory by the end of this week. We sincerely apologise for the inconveniences involved. Our importer Volkswagen UK is informed about the situation and will be pleased to keep you up- to-date. We have notified them about this correspondence. Yours sincerely, i.V. Michelina Lauriola Maenza i.V. Karin Gaedecke Volkswagen AG 38436 Wolfsburg should be on my drive in 6 months then! Problem is, i can't really call the dealer at the mo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petsy Posted November 23, 2005 Report Share Posted November 23, 2005 I certainly do feel your pain LeMan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedRobin Posted November 23, 2005 Report Share Posted November 23, 2005 If you feel awkward calling our dealer because of Stu, I think that if you specifically ask for Adam they will be professional enough to continue to help you in spite of the tragic circumstances. The letter doesn't exactly admit their error over the mislaid paperwork!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simonl Posted November 23, 2005 Report Share Posted November 23, 2005 Just spoke to Adam, he said they've all been knocked sideways by what has happened and sounded incredibly cut up on the phone. But he is on top of my car situation, (apparently) but it's still at the factory , and still doesn't know when it's going to get here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JaxA3 Posted November 23, 2005 Report Share Posted November 23, 2005 This is so frustrating. I was given a build week of 47. Does it really take them 2 months to put the GTI together? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
