Try googling mobex VW finance. Seems they are willing to provide cars where there are delays in production. I've just seen this on a another VAG based forum and I had never heard of it. Suspect that's because they don't want everyone knowing about it and in term get people to extend lease/finance deals.

That's the most useful info I've seen since asking Skoda UK and my dealer since early August. Sadly too little too late.

Just seen Skoda have replied to someone on Facebook who asked the question on one of Thier posts and they said March for orders. Damn you Skoda!!

Is that March to order or march for delivery? Looks like a sportline or l&k for me.

Apart from those wheels that look flat side on, so not very aggressive looking just two questions remain. how much and how long do I have to wait?

Really? I can't get any pricing from the dealers as that's what I want to order. I'm just getting the same old story every time about no my2019 prices.

I'm stuck between a rock and a hard place as my lease superb goes back mid march so need to order as soon as possible so I'm not without a car, but I really want to see the vrs (and its price) before I commit to a sportline. I'm hoping the sportline price may drop slightly.

Curious to see where the pricing for this lands and when it can be ordered, my guess is on or around £40 (perhaps more) which puts it into the high car tax band. I spoke to a dealer last week who said you could place an order for a Karoq Sportline or Scout now, which supprised me but not eh VRs. he also didn't tell me how much they were so perhaps just getting a deposit is the name of the game.

More importantly when is it going to be available to order and how many years will it take Skoda to built it?

Cheers for the info. Suspect it might be down to a lot of great lease deals about before Christmas.

I noticed it was missing on the configuration tool. Have they stopped making them or is it just a temporary removal?

THere is an overlap so all that happens is the glue gives way the rear door chrome trim ends up pulling off every time you open the door. Really poor from Skoda.

Mystery blue all the way (I think that’s what it’s called)

Had mine done a few months back and yesterday it started again. It’s going to be a long 18 months taking it back every few weeks to get it fixed.

Mine finally got sorted last week and it looks like a decent job, although I guess time will tell.

I presume you didn't have this issue with the dab before the install? Mines been crap since I picked it up, some times it works for a few weeks and then it plays up for a few days. If you hold in the volume/power button eventually it reboots the system (takes a good 10-15 seconds of holding) and as if by magic it starts to work again.

Well apparently after me telling the dealers about the well known issues with the seals when I booked the car in for a service, but the expert on the service desk said ah it just needs a bit of glue. Shock! horror! A phone call to say the service has been done but they need to order new door seals. Great! another trip to the dealer.

Mine currently has waterproof tape holding the drivers door and passenger trim on as they catch really badly. Just lining up a visit to sort it with the dealer. Hopefully it's a well known issue and they won't just try and fob me off.

Hmm just found this thread and I have the same issue. Currently operating some waterproof tape to hold the back door trim in place. I will get it booked in early Jan if it's a known fault.

First button I press as soon as I start the engine. Mine has tried it's best to cause a crash more than one occasion. It's far far to aggressive in its engagement. It cuts the engine whilst the car is still rolling (very slowly) and where I live there are loads of mini roundabouts. If it waited a few seconds after coming to a dead stop, then engaged I could live with it. mine is a DSG for info.

They are in the U.K. Accessories catalog or they were when I bought my superb this time last year. I was gutted as I really wanted them and I still think the best skoda wheels available for the superb.

Hmmm. Looks to have a lot of superb interior design bits going on which isn't a bad thing just a bit plain to me.

There was one at the final stage of the Tour de France in a red disguise. I didn't see it on the tv coverage at all but skoda are posting a video soon on Facebook. Has to be said I know its disguised but the wheel arches are square and the wheels look tiny to me.

Somehow it doesn't look quite as good as when it was first released at the motor show. Would be cool to see a side by side picture to see the difference.

I have discovered that there is something not right with my Columbus. Sometimes when I get in and set off I have no dab signal no matter what staton I choose (even radio 1). Even fm drops in and out, however after rebooting the Columbus (hold down the power button) it stars to work again. Similarly if I get out of the car and get back in ten minutes later the signal is back. I suspect I am going to have to film the behaviour as it won't do it when I get it to the dealers. Has anyone else noticed this?
