Ha-hah! Delivered to Emden on 4th August, and (yesterday) was waiting for a boat. :-) I know the "City of Barcelona" left Emden for Tyne yesterday evening; I wonder...

Do Skoda Customer Services tend to respond to queries sent via skoda.co.uk? Or am I more likely to get a response if I pick up a phone and harangue them in person? I'm trying to get a more definitive answer about the likely delivery date of our car, rather than our dealer's slightly dubious interpretations of what they've been told...

Ours was also, allegedly, in the queue; we deliberately went for that, rather than picking our own spec, so we'd get it a bit quicker. Needn't have bothered. I guess it was so close to the changeover for MY11 that it got delayed.

That's pretty much what we've been told, too. Estimates for time between being built and delivery have ranged from ten days to six weeks. =8-O Just looked at our original order: order placed 20th March (for a car that was already, allegedly, in the production queue); estimated delivery date: 31st May! Yeah, right.

Don't worry, you're not alone. We ordered so long ago that I can't remember the exact month, and it still hasn't turned up yet. I think it's meant to be built this week. I'm sure we were meant to get it before mid-July originally, and now it looks like we'll be lucky to get it before September. :-(
