ordered same but in black on 28 Oct and been given week 13 so not moved from this time last month. It seems like its taking forever, like waiting for xmas when your a kid.

Slipped back to week 18 now unconfirmed :(

Am tempted to send them a copy of 'an idiots guide to car production'

Ordered diesel VRS Estate with DSG & a few extras end of November....now week 20 :'(

Dealer has been pretty poor, Skoda UK customer services were very informative & explained about the lack of components for the diesel engine.

Now have a reference number for the compensation scheme :|

How come some seem to come really quick?? Congrats

Strange how the December orders are being built now, including mine, when those who ordered Sept/Oct are being delayed further.

The cynic in me would suggest Skoda are figuring rather than p155 off more customers they'll just increase the agony for those already waiting and pay them the compensation????

Mines ready to go on the boat!!!

Cant wait

My dealers answer is that he already had an order in the system so he just modified it to suit my purchase :-)

I placed my order just over a week ago (18th February)

Petrol Hatch, Anthracite, Leather, Heated Front Seats, Xenons, Rear Parking Sensors, Auto-Dimming Mirror, Spare Wheel, Sat-Nav & MaxiDot.

Been given a provisional build of Week 14

Boo. I ordered mine the week before and haven't heard a peep from the dealer. Pretty much the same car as you bar the leather, and mine's a DSG.
