It definitely leaves a bad taste in the mouth. My local dealer was perplexed when I turned up in the Cupra a couple of days ago. They weren't interested in helping me fix the Qi charging problem either. But then again DM Keith don't seem to be ever interested in anything. Fantastic car, annoying as hell. Doubt I'll be back in one after I'm done.

I think the problem is there is no clarity from Skoda - Most businesses won't stomach rental cars for any period of time leaving people in the lurch having to choose something that is in stock when they ordered in good time. I'm not sure when we came to accept 18+ month waits for what is essentially an everyday car. It isn't hand built and it isnt a Lambo. My last Octavia vRS was a factory order in 2016 and that arrived within 7 weeks. i've been lucky that someone ordered a top spec Cupra Formentor hybrid and couldn't fulfill in the end so i went from being cancelled to being in that in about 3 weeks. If they can't make the looms or whatever excuse it us they need to move production elsewhere.

No, our car lease team have. I've had a rental at extreme cost to the business and my tax. Can't keep waiting and waiting. Thankfully have a hybrid Cupra coming so not completely out of the vag fold. Real pr disaster for Skoda, was looking forward to getting into another Octavia after my last vRS. But here I am, back with the Spanish.

They're awful. Same boat!

Car was cancelled by our leasing company. They can't get it. Been told anything past certain date will need to reorder due to facelift and Skoda's inability to complete orders. Worked out ok, have a Hybrid Cupra coming instead which was a cancelled order so will be here end of the week. It's been a disaster for Skoda.

My car ordered in October 21 has now been officially cancelled! Looking for anything now! What a joke.

I'll show my arse in Burton's window if that's correct. 17 months and waiting for me too!

My 1.4 iv was ordered October 21. It's still not here. Company have put me in a ****box Astra that's rented from Northgate. Bumper hanging off, joints knocking. It's a dire situation and I can't really cancel as the equivalent is at least double now.

Hey!, Mine was ordered in October and i have been changed soo many times now. Think the latest update is 28th June. Thankfully i have a VWFS car so i've been able to extend my contract - although my mileage is now horrific, and i'm still not reaping the tax benefits of having a Hybrid. Sign of the times i suppose.
