Bayleaf Green Coast expected for Easter

[CaliforniaPete]

Hi - we are expecting our new California Coast around Easter having ordered mid October. We added a few extras and can't wait to get travelling in the spring, when we are allowed. We have wanted one for years and having now taken early retirement we can't wait.

Hello & how lovely early retirement sounds combined with Cali purchase.
I guess I might get mine for Easter too - how fun does that sound - will have to do some form of Easter/Cali celebration!
Im awaiting my Coast too - ordered end of September & Build Week 51 - so should be on its way soon fingers crossed!

Welcome. Very exciting. Glad to see some October orders are being delivered as promised. Unfortunately I'm in the Coast gang pushed back to provisional May builds.

Wow, what a way to start your retirement. Good decision!

Congratulation, we took early retirement a couple of years ago then purchased our long dreamed of Cali, hope you enjoy yours as much as we do ours.

Sounds perfect. Wishing you an expedited build slot, sometime soon.

Hello, I would consider adding the complete towbar rather than just the prep. This thread is usefulhttps://vwcaliforniaclub.com/threads/towbar-still-undecided.38388/post-477542

Hi - what is the issue with Coast builds being pushed out ?

So we've had our provisional build week move again today from wk17 to wk11. VW state there is no specific 'model' reason for delays, just Covid and the volume of orders. Basically, provisional week numbers seem to be pointless as ours has changed 3 times in 10 days.

I'm going to resist the urge to contact them again for a few weeks. Who knows, might get a pleasant surprise when I do!

I think that's a good plan.
