Bit of a mixed bag Jon to be honest. So on time some not. But generally if there are no problems, then within 2 weeks of build date. Unless it built in Mexico.

Your best bet is to ask your dealer Jon it does differ from manufacturer to manufacturer.
All based on what they do after they build them – if all testing etc. is done during the build and there are no aftermarket things to do by the dealer, it’s a lot quicker than if they finish the build then move it into a queue for quality checks, and then the dealer waits for delivery before even ordering any other bits you’ve requested.
As per Phils suggestion, best off asking the dealer as they should have much more specific information on the way that THAT particular brand operates

Thanks Gents, Hopefully it will come early Feb, Its still mad as a nearly 50 year old man I still get excited for a new car 🙂
I’m 47 this year and looking forward to my new one in the next couple weeks but I do admit I’m looking forward to getting OUT of the current one as much as getting IN to the new one lol

Colin if my memory serves me you have an XC60, same as me, but i love it.
Just shows how people differ.
The only person who got all his work done by Friday was Robinson Crusoe.
Anything i post over three lines long please assume it is an article lol.Yes I have an XC60 but the truth is I’m a big old geek and the VERY last-gen tech (actually I’d say it isn’t even last-gen, it’s 2 or 3 generations old really) in it is really annoying me – I’m the guy with 3 desktop PCs at home, 2 at the office, 2 or 3 laptops around the place, a stack of tablets and the latest greatest when it comes to phones, etc. Hell, I’m 47 this year and my Christmas present was a VR headset for the Playstation lol. Add to that the horrible MPG I’m getting (over 25500 miles from new I have averaged 27.2) and I just want something new. The Tiguan has lots of toys to keep me occupied, hopefully for a while, as long as I can deal with the smaller boot 😀

I ordered my Peugeot Rifter on 4/11/19 and was told sometime end of April/May2020 and was given 31st May pickup date, got a call day after boxing day to say it now has a build date on 14th January 2020 so should be ready shortly after my current lease ends on 29th of this month, can’t say I’m giddy as the Q1 list has sapped all that out of me TBH but it will be good to finally get rid of this turd I’ve been dumped with for the past 3 years, it doesn’t get quite as bad mpg as yours Colin but at 31mpg average over 42,000 miles it’s pretty rubbish too.
I am like you with the tech except triple it with bells on, I have all the tech plus I build and repair pc/phone/tablets, install networks/ip cctv etc etc(retired but still have a tech business) and like you I have just got half a dozen games, the G29 wheel + rig + chair, sony gold headset, 4tb hdd, extra controller + jump charger plus other crap for my PS4 Pro and I’m 50 years old(8 in man years).
I am looking forward however to the latest tech as I have ordered it fully loaded and if it just works it will be a step up over everything on mine that either works now and then or just not at all.
@colin @vinalspin We should have a tech section thread for us tech eds. 2X desktops/Gaming machines. 3 Laptops 4 tablets Plus lots of assorted gubbins. I build repair also but mainly for gamers. No consols for me though. PC master race hahahha

Previous car:Peugeot 308 GT Premium 1.2 Pure tech Petrol.How funny is that, I am 47, ps4 pro with vr, 2 xbox one x, alienware 17 laptop. 4 or 5 tablets. Cant wait for the toys in the 5008 🙂
Could you tech guys speak English please.
I have:-
One computer.
Three android boxes.
Three iPhone 7 one for me but I pay for all three lol.
And don’t play any games.

Anything i post over three lines long please assume it is an article lol.I’m an equal opportunist. PC, Xbox 360, Xbox One, Wii, Switch and more lol connected to various tv’s depending on the age of the user.
Yes I’m the big mean father who keeps the 55″ for himself and the wife and makes my 7 year old son play on one of his TWO 22″ screens. Not quite as spoiled as it sounds – he has a TV in his room connected to the switch and Wii (no live gaming), but his PC and Xbox are connected to a second screen in the living room so I can keep an eye on what he’s hearing and doing lol
I would like to apologise to the OP for beginning the process of utterly hijacking his utterly relevent thread with a load of utterly irrelevant (to the post) comments 😛
"Man is born in freedom, but he soon becomes a slave, in cages of convention, from the cradle, to the grave."
Okay, back on topic, I was told almost 7 months for my Peugeot but that is looking like 2 – 3 months so it all depends on how many orders are taken for your model of car(5008) and I do believe it has been quite popular recently so it could be brought forward, you never know but the best way to keep up with it is to keep pestering your rep, fire off an email a week just checking if there is a build date yet, any developments etc etc and it might be sooner than you think, good luck.
Fingers crossed Vinalspin ??
but I think the Geeks, sorry I mean Gamers should def start new thread lol
id read it, I’m not a massive gamer but tech, gadgets , phones and lights interest me ??
Thanks Vinalspin, I have the build date of the 17th Jan now so hopefully not too long after that 🙂 I would be interested in a gaming thread. I play a lot of destiny 2 and COD and some pubg so would be interested in doing some online gaming
I just played my mate online at Fifa 20 on the PS4 pro, anyone up for a game of Monopoly? ?
Maybe so, I got 4 games on black friday deals and saved £140 so well happy, been doing a trio posse on RDR2 lately, funny as hell with the headsets on hardly do any serious playing for all the laughter, really are all just big kids aren’t we. ?
Ordered in August and Collected end of November after the original car the dealer ordered was a GT Line and not a GT Line Premium. Since October MY2020 builds Peugeot have removed iCockpit Amplify and the aluminium pedals and scuff plates from the GT Line and GT Line Premium 🙁
