Well after a few delays my new car was delivered this morning . 1st impressions are very good. Really pleased with my choice of colour (anthracite) and the elegance spec. Haven't found anything I don't like yet.

Will post some pics asap

Hi Ben

Would be interested in seeing the pics-I have chosen anthracite(SE 170)

What was lead time like when you ordered?

Happy motoring!

Cheers

Jon

Hi Jon,

I didn't get it from skoda, got it from the taxi centre in Glasgow. When I ordered it they did have access to one in this colour so was gonna be 5 days. Sadly there was an accident and the car was damaged beyond repair during transit. So in the end I have waited just under 4 weeks. I possibly haven't been the most patient customer, as the car is a taxi and time off the road is costing me money! But to be fair, Stephen Porter at the taxi centre has been very good.

Knowing spare wheels are now an option I asked him about this and he said all there vehicle go out with spares and sure enough it was there.

Also umbrella was there and sat nav dvd.

Will sort pics.

If it woked, here is a little taster pick I took when we were fitting the mud flaps.

Looks lovely indeed.

YIP nice car it is the same as mine, got mine as a 3 month old demo from Chathams, great deal. Very pleased with the car, mates and neigbours are slagging me off for buying a "limo".

PS are you planning to build an extension to your garage to fit the car

:)

Garage belongs to a friend, you can just see the tent on the right that houses his Honda S2000. In the 6 months he's owned it, it's just gone over 600 miles! Just criminal!:(. Bought brand new, he got a deal I wouldn't believe if I hadn't been there!!!!
