That's really good news for you regarding the lead time - unfortunatley for me, a 10-12 week lead time was to long long and I had to look elsewhere. As a related aside, IIRC, the 280hp engined car is cheaper, more economical and produces lower emissions than the 272 hp version that is replaced. So, win, win & win !

is that for the 280hp engine ?

If its of help to anyone, I've just found out that the 280ps engine is now available to order and that the lead time is 10-12 weeks.

Thank you, I'll do that.

Today I tried in vain today to order a Superb Estate 2.0 TSI 272 L&K, with the dealer saying that "requested model is not currently showing on the Skoda ordering system". When I was on the Skoda Configurator, on the car card, it says "THis engine is only available from stock". In essence, does this mean that there aren't any 272 engines available and my order can't be processsed until the updated 280 engine goes online ?
