Mine was in build for a full four weeks

Cheers Skoda23 😂 I think they are quite unobtrusive but definitely functional. They are Climair, https://www.climairuk.com/search.php?mmy_mode=apply&fmake=67&fmodel=2702 They do 2 versions depending on rubber or chrome window surround.

Thank you Yogi-Bear. The wind deflectors allow me to sleep in the car after fishing trips and let fresh air in but not the rain. I agree, I don’t ever drive with the windows open either but they are combined with full coverage net screens so the midges stay out too. The benefits outweigh any aesthetics issues 😂

Picked up car today and well happy with it. Added a couple of wee bits and changed the hood emblem. 235 days to get here- all the best to those still waiting 😬

Although not on lease, my deal, like many whose current cars soared in value, was indeed super duper and I’d crossed my fingers for 8 months hoping nothing about the deal would change. I’m collecting my Moonwhite VRS on Tuesday and have this morning signed all the finance paperwork: same low % rate as back in October, same £2750 deposit contribution, same unbelievably good trade-in price, and not affected by the two price rises since then. Overall I’m getting this car for nearly £13k less than it would normally have been. It’s been an agonising wait, but worth it for sure. Probably a once in a lifetime opportunity due to the pandemic/chip crisis- let’s hope it is anyway.

Good grief, 4 months longer than me 😩 Well done for hanging in there 👍🏻

I know what you mean, I’m going to compensate the dealer for all the crap he’s taken from me 🍻🍻 😂 His patience has been stellar! How long has your wait been?

Fantastic news 👍🏻, how many months have you been waiting?

Will do 👍🏻 Looks like it’ll be just over 3 weeks from built to dealer if it arrives as expected early next week. Was in production for 4 weeks.

On a cheerier note, one moonwhite VRS has arrived off the boat! 😃 Hoping to pick up next week after 8 month wait; 2 months longer than expected but still less than some…..

VRS with ventilated seats, winter and sleep packs and towbar.

I got a similar letter a couple of months back, the first communication from ŠKODA in 5 months which is pretty poor. Can’t fault the dealer however, they had invented so many different ways to say they still hadn’t heard re a build week! Moving faster now thankfully, on Friday it was at the port released for shipping to uk. Can’t imagine the ships are too busy 🤞🏻

That’s sadly probably true. I’d have been perfectly happy to keep my current Sportline and ordinarily would never have spent (or been able to spend) full price for the VRS had it not been for the perfect storm of unbelievably good trade-in price and factory discount which will still be honoured.

No side assist or Canton added. I went with leather ventilated seats, winter pack, sleep pack and towbar.

Dealer has just confirmed my early October VRS order has now left the factory! Running approx 2 months late from the very initial estimate of 24 weeks but appreciate some guys here waiting much longer. Fingers crossed for a smooth journey to dealer, hopefully by end of May 😬

Had a couple of weeks with provisional BW13 now confirmed as in production this week. Feels like a relief but it’s not over till I’m sitting in it! (Moon white VRS ordered early Oct 21) How long have folks here waited from production week to delivery at dealer?

I think your dealer likes to wind you up. Probably had your car in their compound for the last 6 months for the mechanics to have their lunch in on rainy days. You’ll get it for summer, which this year is a Wednesday 👍🏻

Why is the ŠKODA dealer still updating you? Did you not get the Kia Sportage GT after having previously bailed out of the Kodiaq in early November when you bought an in-stock Volvo XC60?

Also just off the ŠKODA chat- couldn’t confirm if order prefix related to lease/retail and they offered to call the dealer. I get a weekly update from them every Friday so will see what they say. I’m also 31 via retailer so can’t see it being lease/fleet although started the ball rolling via Carwow.

I honestly thought the BW would be put back instead of brought forward but it’s only provisional and I know anything could still happen. It may even go to AndD’s 319 days and beyond! ☹️ Also, not sure how balancing emissions will work out now that Enyaq production is affected with the awful Ukraine situation. Could it be the lower emission cars are brought forward?

I think we need a new word for your journey! I do feel for you but admire your patience 👍🏻

Im trading the Sportline for a VRS with ventilated leather seats, winter pack, sleep pack and towbar. Basically same monthly payments (not including extra fuel of course) 😬

My provisional BW14 is now provisional BW13 so at least heading in the right direction. Dealer has been great with the regular comms and will hopefully get confirmed BW soon- 147 days since order, it’s an agonising wait when your like a kid in a sweet shop 🚙💨

And mine 😴

You, Spivo and me- think positive 🤪😂👍🏻
