Just placed an order after being swayed back
tigermad replied to tigermad's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk IV (2020 > )
Got a call back from Drive the deal. Seems it’s a bit different. You give your card details to them and they pass them to the dealer for the deposit. You then get the order form and spec confirmation from the dealer. I don’t fancy that. Would have liked to see if the dealer wanted my car first. Oh well. Thanks anyway. -

Do you pay the deposit to the dealer or drivethedeal? -

Thanks. Just done one. If I select enquire now and they call me back when is the order fully confirmed. Can I check things with the dealer first before committing? -

Looks like I’m sticking with my Troc. The dealer has withdrawn the deal since they said they made a mistake with the figures. Pretty peeved since I paid a deposit and stuff. Didn’t sign anything though, all done over the phone. I’ve bought 2 other cars from them previously too :-( -
Can the car react to speed limit signs?

It has to be PCC I believe not just ACC -

Sounds dangerous. Maybe it should beep to warn it’s going to change first. -

Thanks. Haven’t even signed the forms yet so order not on the system. Their Skoda system wouldn’t let them create the draft order for that colour. I can choose other colours fine. -

Tried to change my order to crystal black today. Dealer unfortunately couldn’t choose that colour. It won’t let him on his database. Has anyone ordered that colour recently? Thanks -
Hi. Were you happy with the crystal black?
-
Thanks. I’m decided if I should change the Color to crystal black now and no beige interior. :-)

Thanks it’s going to be on a PCP so I won’t be the one who has to worry about that if I’m handing it back in at the end. I don’t tend to buy my cars at the end of the PCP. If I did i would run them until they die anyway. I see where you are coming from if I was going to sell it privately though.

I’m thinking about changing my SEL velvet red to have a beige interior. I have only seen a few pics on line with a beige interior and can’t make my mind up. I don’t have kids or pets so that shouldn’t be a problem. Has anyone gone for the beige interior?

Best fuse for hard wired dashcam?
tigermad replied to tigermad's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk IV (2020 > )
Hi. I don’t want permanent live. I want one that switches off. I will go with the wiper if it’s the rights amps. It needs to switch off then the battery pack takes over for the parking power. -

Thanks. Will be a good few months before I get my car so plenty of time to find out. I wonder if the 12v socket in the boot stays on or goes off. I could also use that fuse I guess.
