T6.1 new order delays

I’m getting worried that my January build is going to be delayed by the new covid wave sweeping Europe. Need to beat the end of March price rise!
I have worries about this, I guess we will find out if the factory closes etc but all we can do is stay positive.
 
Evening, I was informed in October my Caravelle would be available to collect April 2022 , last week i was informed it would be here late January 2022 !
All Caravelles are being pushed through earlier to make way for the new Multivan.
Good news for Caravelle customers :thumbsup:'
Also was informed that Kombi high spec vehicles ordered recently will be 2023 at earliest. ...............very reliable source.

I was notified about a week ago that my bus build date had come forward from March to January

Ordered 02/02/21 just been given a provisional allocation build of Feb 22,
there are 2 vans before me though, so am guessing they have December and January allocation,
Big but is if VW don’t have parts to fulfil order you miss the allocation and they build the next in the queue,
Seems every dealer is having a different story to peddle,
If I dont receive by April the increase will be 2%, which is far less painful than the 6% others have been told,
The virtue of patience is soooooooo frustrating :eek:

Someone's got all their COVID grants!!
 
Hi All, I’ve been putting off posting anything until mine was confirmed as built, just had email saying it’s built! It had a build week of 41 and that never changed! For the last 10weeks it just said not built! Apparently it was 1 of 1000 vans waiting for bits and VW said they would get them all completed by the end of the year. I had my doubts but now I’m happy:) Hopefully anyone else waiting for one that was down to be built this year will have good news as well.

When did you order @Steve H1?
 
Ordered my T6.1 on 20th April from Sinclair Cardiff.
I ordered a SWB Transporter 2.0TDI Highline with Front Cpt seats with swivel, Heated seats, Rear camera, Roof rails, Side Bars, So not too much

I've emailed the dealer every 2 weeks for an update and I've had replies to each one saying no update as yet but at one point had a provisional date of 6th December, and then that date fell away with no date and it's still that.
so frustrated atm, just want a damn date
 
I was split between using Cardiff or Autoebid and chose the latter. I have wondered whether I made the right decision and pondered whether my Kombi would have arrived sooner if I'd chosen Sinclair. Judging by your response above I may have been in pretty much the same boat...

When you order via Autoebid, you place your order directly with the dealer that offered the best price. This means that the delivery timescales are no different than if you'd walked through the door of that same dealer and done the deal face to face. The only slight wrinkle is that the dealers offering the best deals via Autoebid aren't necessarily the dealers who have allocation.
 
Hi, ordered a 150ps long dgs front drive in 07.2021. Originally confirmed to Nov/Dec, now moved to Feb/March... Do you have any news about a current production status in VW factory?
 
Looks like i've got a few more months to wait then having ordered in March, although I've heard nothing from my dealer for nearly a month. :(

You guys must be the ones who have waited the longest on here?...Unless there are others?:whistle:

Excited for you! :thumbsup:
 
I rang yday and 'apparently' mine is due to be built in February, providing parts are available (3 vans before me). Ordered 6th Feb 2021, so looking at more than 12 months by the time it arrives...
