Update from the dealers today - due for build in week 18 with week 21 delivery (end of May).

Better get selling the old car now then!!

All this time to think though does make me consider my colour and options list!!!

Picking mine up on Thurs, ordered 4th Jan.

FINALLY picking mine up tomorrow!!!! YAY! Only been 5 months for a car with no options! Not very excited anymore...

Same, getting mine tomorrow.

Long wait, but you'll be pleased when you collect it.

Ordered mid-February. Delivery approx 12 weeks

Skoda Factory "accepted" the order 3rd March.

According to the dealer, no build week yet - will update us towards the end of the month, but says delivery in May.

Hopeful?!?!?

My build date has been brought forward from the 13th May to the 29th April.

For those with no build week date contact your sales guy. They can look it up on their system.

Four weeks tomorow,and still no build date... :(
