Had a similar call from dealer asking if I wanted the car to be delivered by end of moth guaranteed. Sounds like Skoda are clearing out any orders they can ASAP in the UK.

Depends on how many rough roads or country tracks you use. As we take the bear and the dog for walks and drives in country areas we included it. If your just cruising around town, you don’t need it.

The normal suspensions ride is pretty good already. The main benefits of the DCS that I found on my test drive with a Kodiaq equipped with it where on poor roads where it really soaked up the bumps. I don’t notice a lot of difference on a bit of sporty B road that I’ve driven in both a none DCS Kodiaq and the DCS one.

Sounds like a heck of a mark up on that by someone in the supply chain or Skoda.

Seems like weeks are moving forward. I ordered mine on 2nd Feb, it was originally build week 20, 13th May, now it’s been brought forward to build week 15, 8th April. Might get before the May Bank Holiday.

Just got some good news from my dealer my bear build date has come forward to build week 15 which is week beginning the 8th of April, fingers crossed it stays there.

My order is with a South East dealer, so I think long lead times are the norm currently.

Still at build week 20 for mine. I tried asking Skoda if they where waiting for the new model year builds, but didn’t get anything useful except model changes are usually confirmed in Sept, which seems different to what I’ve heard in the past.

You did well getting it so quick. I ordered mine around the same time and I’m in build week 20, May time.

Just exchanged email with the dealer and the provisional build week is week 20 around 13th May now.

How long did it take people to get a build week from their dealer? I ordered mine at the start of Feb and the dealer still hasn’t heard anything from Skoda☹️

Bought a Kodiaq from them which was delivered in Nov last year. They went out of their way to be helpful, even loaning a car when Skoda mucked up the dates when we where supposed to return the car. The salesman delivered the car in person to us and spent a good thirty minutes going through all the features with the better half. They also gave us a great price on the car.

They are no longer in business at this site, they sold it to a builder who has started a housing development.

I asked the dealer I placed my Kodiaq order with when the 2019 spec could be ordered and Skoda came back to them saying the first time an order could be placed was June. That’s too far out for me, so I’m keeping with the current 2018 spec. I’m still awaiting a build week though on my order placed in early Feb. ☹️

Does anyone have any idea when Skoda start building Kodiaq’s with the new engine line up announced at the Geneva motor show?

Thanks everyone, does anyone have any idea when the Kodiaq starts being delivered with the new 2ltr petrol engine (announced at Geneva motor show) that had the extra 10bhp?

Ordered Bear number 2 on Feb 02. Still awaiting a build week from Skoda. Spec of this one is 2.0 Tsi, 5 seat DSG 4x4, brilliant. Silver, 3cx partion, seats heated front and rear, front and rear parking sensors, Personal driving mode, Driver Alert, rough road pack, dynamic chassis, Tri-zone climate control, heated windscreen, leather in black, high beam assist and rear view camera.

Now awaiting delivery on the second ‘bear’. The first Kodiaq being delivered in Nov 2017, awaiting a build week for the second, which was ordered on Feb 02.
