I got this as a £75 option on my 2016 VRS hatchback - it is part of the 'Simply Clever' package which also includes the mobile phone holder and the small rubbish bins that fit into the front door bins. I was expecting it to be a properly reversible floor, but what it actually is is simply a rather flimsy mat with rubber on one side - good for muddy wheels on pushchairs but not sure it feels like a product that justifies the price tag!

Another 7 weeks? Are you sure you don't mean 28th of December? :p -
Octavia build dates for new orders

I'm sure the 8 working days is to potentially cover a delay at UK customs - hopefully (for me) the ship comes into Sheerness as that means a short trip of 30 miles for my car to the dealer. Edit: Just had an e-mail to say my car is at UK port and awaiting customs clearance -

I've been told this morning that my car has now reached "Status 39" which means it has shipped to the UK - hopefully yours will be on the same boat! -

I waited almost three months to finally get a build date for my car - a fortnight is nothing! -

Not as far as I'm aware - you need to starting paying Audi or VW sort of money for your car if you want little "extras" like this! -

It's a bit disheartening for me to see the number of people who have ordered cars after me and have had build dates before mine (or even have received their cars already!) - reinforces my thoughts that the dealer I bought my car from is clearly hopeless! I ordered my car (VRS TSI 220) on the 28th of August (with an estimated delivery date of 27/11). Build week ended up being Week 48 (i.e. w/c 28/11) - I've been told on 1/12 that the car has left the factory and is in transit, they are optimistic that I will be able to collect it before Christmas. Oh, my options were Race Blue, Canton stereo, privacy glass, folding mirrors, SmartLink, spare wheel and the 'Simply Clever' package. Chris
