T6.1 new order delays

Nope, VIN no is allocated at the factory at point of build. Your dealer should already have it - mine was emailed to me by the dealer the day after it was built

I just wondered as my dealer said as soon as the van lands at port, they can email invoice to check all options are on the van.
 
Sounds like they just want to double check as part of PDI when they get the van, before confirming with you. But vin no is definitely already allocated when built in Germany.
 
I ordered a kombi this week. Order form says ‘estimated delivery 9th Dec’

Ouch! That’s not good. Let’s hope the factory can make up some time and it gets pulled forward.
 
Hi @Rids do you know how long yours has been at Ebden?
Hi it’s journey sounds similar to Ozi’s..,
Reports from the dealer are...
“in transit from the factory” on 1st March,
9th it was at the port and “released for shipping”,
on 16th it was “still awaiting shipment”
One day...
 
I’d say it’s worth another chat with the dealer @jamesabell1978

At the very least it should have been accepted by the factory after all this time. If not, I’d be asking why, and what the dealer is doing about it? Even if they had limited allocation, the amount of time thats passed without factory acceptance is ridiculous
 
Ordered beginning of January. Still no news
To be fair. I order mine feb 5th and I did ask what was the dealers allocation was. He was going into April’s allocations and is confident for a July build. He rang me up the other day and I asked why the hold ups etc. He said people ordering now will be going into November allocations.
 
Over 6 months now since order, no news, no confirmation of factory acceptance, no build week, last spoke to dealer in November, Autoebid check in monthly but can’t tell me much either
Check with VW live chat with your order number to check progress. I ordered one kombi in Nov. Was only accepted by factory in March (furious), August allocation (gutted), October delivery a year later.
Good luck.
