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 spotted they don’t do part exchanges. That won’t work then.

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 The dealer has withdrawn the deal since they said they made a mistake with the figures.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 :-(

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?

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.

Still really like the Troc. It’s the 1.5 tsi and the mpg was nowhere near the published figures. Only got to around 32mpg on my 12 mile journeys to work, admittedly quite a few roundabouts on the way though. I would have kept it for the full term of the PCP but got such a good offer on the new Octavia I couldn’t turn it down. The Octy is only going to be a 1.5 as well but according to the figures I should get better MPG. Will be interested to compare. A bit worried by some of the posts on here mentioning the various faults though

Think ware f770 with a BlackVue battery pack. Had it in 3 cars now all hardwired.

Thanks but It needs to be hardwired into a 15 amp fuse. That’s the battery pack. Then the dashcam goes into the battery pack. It has to be a switched live.

Can anyone tell me which fuse is best to run my dashcam off please? I will be using a battery pack with it that will piggy back off it. Thanks.

You can’t have travel assist then. Otherwise it would show on the dashboard.

So does the hud in the uk have the signs or not if you have the travel assist option? No one seems to have confirmed in the thread yet.

I have only just ordered my car today. I have selected travel assist.

Thanks. Can only hope it’s updated at some point. £700 is a lot extra to pay for it.

What can you have on the display? I’ve just ordered one with it. Thanks.

Just placed an order for a Mark iv SEL velvet red with the 1.5 etec dsg engine. I have driven Skodas for over 12 years but decided to buy a T-Roc. After 1.5 years I am coming back to the fold :-) I miss the little things like the heated windscreen and virtual pedal etc. Was quoted a lead time of 12-14 weeks but am guessing that’s a little optimistic since I’ve added loads of extras too and that normally holds things up. Hopefully I have made the right decision coming back and will be interesting to try the mild hybrid engine.
