New T6.1 order delays

[SFO]

We were down at Breeze Poole today collecting our new van, and they said it's been manic - vans arriving unexpectedly and very frequently now. There were loads of Cali's sat in their yard - more than I'd seen in one place before but they said that was quiet compared to what they'd seen recently.

Anyhow - here's a couple of pictures to keep you folks who are still waiting going - they do arrive eventually!

Like the wheels, were they a dealer fit option? what was the cost tyres and fitted if you don't mind me asking?

 

[Themadwife]

Yes! Just begun this week! I think maybe a lot of Unfinished van already built in stock there, when some missed parts arrived, the van has been finished very quickly, so you should get the good news soon.

Yes, ours was built but waited for a month before it was shipped - we guessed it was waiting on one part ! Hoping it got on the ship this week

Thanks! Yes they are, they came to £1759 fitted with all season Falkens IIRC. Now I have.a set of brand new Clayton’s to sell…

Not much beyond the normal Coast interior, but we did order the 'Storage Pack' and the Discover Media Pro (I'm one of the few who actually LIKE VW's satnav , and I like the way it fills the dash).

Hope these give you an idea.

I do prefer the lighter wood effect finish on the Coast. What was the cost of the small drawer factory option?

 

[SFO]

Thanks for the interior pics. I was interested to see the floor ..

standard flooring for MY 22 Coast supposed to be “plastic wood effect floor” but clearly not that ..

Yeah, it's a cheery place to be The small drawer is part of:

ALG:QE6 - Storage Compartment Package £180.00

You also get a pre-attached storage net for the pop top hatch (not the child safety net).

Hope that helps!

No problem. That was definitely still an option at the time I ordered - late Aug 2021, but not the default.

I ordered in late November 2021 when “plastic wood effect floor” was standard. Let’s see what happens ..

It was an option on the Euro Coasts, and not a cheap one either at about 550 Euros. But I liked the look and went for it.

I will do what Cali Time did and retrofit the tiny drawer. Seems like a useful space organizer to have in the van.

This is very helpful to store books/phones/water bottles etc when upstairs in bed. Can be left in place and closed into the roof.

Can the net be retrofitted or does it require factory installed mounts?

Hi Peter,
Have you also had confirmation of delivery for your Campers.eu Cali? I'm scheduled to collect my Coast on May 28th. Order Nov 15th 2020.

Not yet, only that it's scheduled to be delivered early June to their supplier.

New update this morning: the van is painted and assembly has started. It's all moving along nicely. The dealer also confirmed that the van would have the wheels mounted by now. It has wheels!

New email from dealer this morning (Ocean ordered April 2021 in Ireland):

Just an update on your order, as of the 6/5/2022 the vehicle arrived at the port in Germany, at the moment we have not been informed on when the next vessel is leaving.

Once I hear on when the vessel is leaving I will update yourself.

New email from dealer this morning (Ocean ordered April 2021 in Ireland):

Our Van was at the port29th April and we where told it could make the boat leaving 3rd May which would have been tight, it didn't make that boat and we are told the next boat is leaving on the 11th May. Our dealer has sent a message to request that they do their best to ensure that it is on that boat.
Hopefully both of our Cali's will make it

That isn't the Discover Media Pro unit in the photos. The Media Pro doesn't have any knobs at all its 100% touchscreen. You have the Discover Media unit.

Whoop whoop. I'll mention that to my dealer - let's make it a party.

Oh dear Shuftie, you said you ordered Discovery Media PRO, and you've got basic Discovery media. Look at your order and invoice, then talk to the dealer if it is not as your VW order sheet.

 

[Shuftie]

You folks are of course right I didnt order the pro - just the nav (PACKET:ZIE - Discover Media Navigation System), but can't stop myself from calling it that for some reason

Thats fine then, didn't want you to have been ripped off paying for something you havn't received.

Helpful update from Nick at Listers. Coast ordered 1st October at port……. needs a full ship before it sets sail. I hope there a plenty of vans on their way!

Ooh thanks for this we ordered our coast on 7 September from the same place (minimal options added) so fingers crossed it’s en route soon!
