Just been to the dealer to add a Maxi-dot onto my order, Octavia Estate 2.0 DTi 4x4, ordered June 29, 2011. Have been told that Skoda have accepted the order, been given build week 41. So could be getting the Octavia, hopefully around Christmas time.

Those build weeks can still shift, but it looks promising!

Sounds like there might be a batch of TDI 4x4/Scouts built around week 41/42 - I ordered in March and got a provisional of wk41 last month (although it has now slipped to wk42). Should hopefully mean mid-November delivery.

Nice one You'll enjoy it when you eventually get it (hopefully just in time for the snow)!
