Volkswagen has increased its factory lead time to a max of 26 weeks which affects all niche models and south american cars. They have made the descision to cut back production due to the economic outlook which they have predicted will worsen over the next 18 months. Please bear this in mind when planning any Scirocco factory order.

Thats a long wait, any roc's on the forecourts are likely to get snapped up, may also reduce discounts available.... :|

Looks like I Just crept in, ordered new Scirroco 3 weeks ago, dealer has said the car is scheduled to complete production by week 21. Hopefully this won't be put back...

I ordered mine same time as you and dealer phoned me up the other day saying it is 'frozen' for production on w/c 27th April which means it can't be pushed back further than this.

Is this only going to effect fresh orders after a specific date ?

lol when you said frozen i thought you mean't they had temporarily stopped making our cars, so are you say our cars will be ready by no later than the 27th??

Not sure I only heard of this recently so I think its fairly up to date. Week 27 production for march orders though is worrying as they are 6 weeks away from when it starts production.
