T6.1 Sportline black edition - release date

Black edition is the Pure Grey so I’m led to believe but with bigger media screen and matt wheels and side bars, decals, tinted windows and coil overs. Won’t take a lot to change a ‘normal’ pure grey Sportline into a Black Edition.
 
Will I see mine in December/January or will the build date change.
I’ve just been told there is an 8 week further delay on black edition due to the infotainment parts shortage, I never had a build date anyway so doesn’t really bother me too much , but from what I’m told everyone’s build dates are now delayed ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
 
You could do but it still won’t actually be a Black Edition. I did ponder on just getting a Sportline to get it in Indium Grey but Pure Grey is ok just doesn’t match the photos in the brochure.
 
I had build week 50, was hoping they would push to get the Black Edition’s out quicker but am not in any rush it’s more about getting a decent price on my existing van.
 
I was Build week 31 for black ed , that is not happening ..

Vw have shut down for holidays as well ..
sport line launch is put back..
Sit tight it will happen .
 
My build date was 2nd week in December , wonder if they will do them all at once ?
 
Hey guys, Updated today, they stopped taking orders for the limited edition last month. As Craigsom says they’re delayed in production with parts as well as the factory closed for the holidays.
 
My invoice for ‘normal’ Sportline is still ready for october. Spoke to dealer yesterday. Not holding my breath……
 
Lol it’s all doom and gloom with the lead times!
anyone got any upgrade plans with either the black edition or stock sportline?
 
I originally was upgrading a blackline until I saw the colour in the flesh,then fancied the gold on a normal one,as colours are v personal,I opted for a big spec highline in Ascot Grey.

Got a new build date of week 8 2022, I reckon it’s going to be a whole year from ordering to receiving.
 
Ffs! Want mine a month before my Ford Custom goes back in April!
might cancel and wait for the ID commercial electric!!

I think dates people have been given at the onset is a pipe dream,looks like the 150 engine may come thru sooner,as its built at another plant,but mines a 204 & was told a year lead time,when I ordered 6 weeks ago, I'd take it tomorrow, but I know its not happening.

Not sure about the lekky jobs yet either..
 
I had an email through sauing mine was still down for Dec build / late jan delivery . Dont believe it, but the garage seems to ! Time will tell ...
