Just done my anniversary with still no date
What have you ordered?? Do you know your SLI code??
I'm glad I went with a converter that has a steady flow of Transporters into their business. Ordered our conversion in September, based on their delivery schedule the expectation was delivery to them in January and we'd then get the conversion in early March. Sure enough, VW delivered the van to them late January so the conversion is now en route. They did mention that deliveries from VW were a bit erratic, as this thread goes to prove.
The van spec we went with was a T28 SWB 150bhp diesel automatic. Tailgate. Highline spec plus LED lights and reversing camera. Twin swivel seats. Colour is Fortana Red.
Very much looking forward to getting it next month.

I was told there was a broken down fully loaded boat. Another boat leaves tomorrow and another Thursday. Hopefully ours will be on one of them. Still too late for my arranged Monday collection.
I’m in build as of last week, just waiting to hear it’s completed and hopefully a March ETA
Apparently mine is in the U.K. and delivery to the dealer within 7 days. I’ve spoken to them and asked them to wait for March 1st to register as a 22 plate, seems ironic I’m now asking them to delay delivery. TBF VW West Yorkshire have been fantastic and I would recommend to anyone.
I’ve a bit of time so I thought it interesting to see how it converts to pound ,Ahh, you're in Oz - sorry, I hadn't twigged. That would explain why you're not constrained by UK contracts
So, did you have to pay a premium for a fixed-price contract?
the specs are as follows..
transporter van swb tdi 340 7spd DSG 4 motion ascot grey.
anti theft alarm W/ monitoring.
rear differential lock.
hill descent control.
adaptive c/control.
rubber floor to cargo area.
hardboard side panels trim.
led headlights.
light assist package.
comfort package.
fixed window left and right.
appearance package.
swivel seats driver and passenger with armrest.
Agm battery with control module.
increased alternator (250A).
volkswagen care plan first 5 scheduled services.
digital radio.
With the options selection all on road Gov taxes drive away came to Aus $68,599
looking at a currency converter online comes to 36,198 British pounds
then whatever fit out features I decide to do,my mate Harry the Cabnit maker is ready to go at half the cost
of the ready made modules
Ohh and lane assist
Not comparing like with like here, I know, but that seems a good price compared to mine. I'm paying £41,200 for my van, and this will increase (to what, I don't know) if the van hasn't been delivered to dealer before end of March [thanks for that VW].
My order is for a LWB T32 Kombi Highline 150PS DSG (with tailgate) in Pure Grey, with the following options:
[43A] Heated driver | front passenger seat
[PXE] LED headlights
[PXH] LED tail-lights
[ID2] Removeable tow-bar
[8W4] Heated washer nozzles
[SQ7] Manual N/S sliding door with power latching
[ZEH] Electric tailgate with window
[SAE] Carpeted cab flooring
[NY4] Uprated starter battery | alternator
[KA1] Rear-view camera
[0F5] 80l fuel tank
The price doesn't include any dealer/ servicing/ warranty options.
Evening all. I ordered my T6.1 kombi back in March. Have been waiting for a confirmed build date. Finally got one in the new year. Week commencing 21st feb. Emailed dealer today to check all is still ok. I’ve been told order has been delayed to first week in April. They have been told the towbar is holding it up. It’s only got a handful of extras on it. Anyone else had this? Can’t believe a towbar is all that’s holding it up. So gutted.
Do you know if it's the tow-bar itself that's causing the delay, or the prep for the tow-bar?
I can see why the bigger tank is standard - Oz is one vast country - but why the camera I wonder. Are cameras standard across the market, or is it just VW that doesn't rate your countrymen's reversing skills?
