I ordered my car on 3rd July 2021. Moon White, Octavia vRS 2.0 TSI Estate, DSG, Winter Pack, Rear View Parking Camera, Dynamic Chassis Control, space Saver Spare, Blind Spot Detection, Park Assist, Boot & Cargo Program, Variable Boot Floor, Net Partition, Head Up Display; basically with most options ticked other than the glass roof and annoying lane assist function! I was initially given a build week 38, which came and went! This was then updated in early November to week 4 2022 and again on 27th November 2021, to a build week of 11 2022! Hopefully this won't be changed again, however who knows!!! That last dealer update was whilst ordering the wife's replacement car, a Scala Monte Carlo 1.0 TSI DSG in Moon White (similar options to my car), so I had a good long chat with the dealer principal. I was shown the screen of order dates and build weeks and there was no correlation what so ever! He pointed out that a car showing week 11 2022, had a message on the screen that it was already stage 4 and in the UK! All he could think, was that someone had ordered the same spec and had just cancelled the order or accepted an earlier car of a similar spec! I've actually been offered two cars with lesser spec to my own, back in November, so I know it can happen! With regard to the sudden change from week 4 to week 11, the dealer stated that they had been told by Skoda; that build week 2 to week 10 are being utilised to finish cars on layup in the yard. That sounds like a reasonable explanation and fair to me! I'd be livid if one of them was my car!
