Has anyone been given a delivery date for the Blackline Octavia VRS?

Featured Replies

Unfortunately not :( , however in anticipation of it's collection next week I have just ordered a mic for the "non-existant" bluetooth and am about to source a nice big SD card for my music as I'm sure the wife will soon take over all the storage compartments with her choice of CD's.

Good good, ive already ordered my mic too :)

    Christ mate. I bet your a riot at party's. I'm closer to 40 than 30 and don't appreciate being referred to as a kid, simply because I'm looking forward to getting my Blackline. In my opinion, kids d

Be careful what size of SD card you buy! Bought 64GB and the kit won't accept it. Keeps saying SD card fault. Tried an 8GB and it is fine!

Could be the big card is faulty but I rather doubt it. Any else tried this size with no success?

Ive seen something similar with GoPro cameras. 64Gb cards not acccepted but smaller 16/32Gb cards are.

New member here!!

Also waiting for my new white, manual, estate Blackline - apparently it's at the port in Germany.

I've also got the BT mic on order (should arrive Monday) and someone lined up to complete the VCDS coding and mic install.

Can't wait - first new car I've owned (apart from company cars)!

Phones can be quite fussy as well about SD size.

I'm picking my car up tomorrow at 12:00. The long wait is almost over.

Mines might be today, if the parts are back from paintshop in time. If not it will be sat. Coincidentally am off for 2 weeks from sunday lol.

32gb card ready to fill up with choons then am ready. Been a long 5 weeks since i ordered but could have been longer mind u. I'm used to buying nearly new cars and only waiting a few days. Sure it will be worth it.

update..

Picking car up at 1530,,,, :rofl: :rofl:

Bloody nice that buddy!

Anyone picking up their cars this weekend - enjoy! I had to drive SWMBO's Suzuki Swift to work this morning whilst she stole the Blackline, very grim.

Max SD card size you can use in the headunit is 32gb ;)

I'll try again for a photo....

Nice looking motor.

What mine would've looked like if I chose diesel over petrol.

Only reason I considered the diesel was the fact it was billed as I'd get it a lot sooner than a factory order.

The wait some of you guys are having for a Blackline I may actually end up with my car before you do.

I am! Should have been picking it up at 11 however dealer rang me at 9 asking to make it later! So now it's 1400! Can't feckin wait!

Race ye back to the house lol

Your on! Only an hour and a half to go!!!!

Your on! Only an hour and a half to go!!!!

U said 1400.. Av got 90 mins to go. Still got to empty the whole old car and must remember the tax still has 6 months on it lol

5 mins! I'm heading down! Haha get cleaning! Haha!

So is anyone picking up their new toy today?

I am. Cant wait til 1500

BarneyGPz thanks for the upload, that's the baby I'm picking up when I get home next Saturday, looks awesome.

Does any one know how much Skoda charge for the Bluetooth mic installation? I asked about it last week to see if they could do it and the dealer said no problem. I didn't quite believe him though so I e-mailed to explain in more detail what I was requesting. He sent this back:

"Unfortunatley we miss read the brochure regrading the bluetooth system as the car does not come with it as standard. However as this is our mistake we will supply and fit an after factory bluetooth kit free of charge which will play through the speaker system."

I hope this gives people some faith again in Skoda customer service, I'm delighted.

In that case, get someone with VCDS to activate the bluetooth in the head unit, and ask them to fit the mic. Fully OEM then.

It looks truly wonderful! Just waiting for one last piece of paperwork!

Fancy a whizz round Saturday night? I'll bring the camera.

Yeah I have been following the VCDS forum. I think that's what he means, that he is going to install it and hopefully activate it. Just wondered how much it was I was saving.

Don't think dealers can activate the bluetooth with their VAS system, whereas VCDS you can. Don't understand why personally but there you go.

I suppose if you wanted them to fit an after market bluetooth unit, like a Fiscon, they cost around £300-£400. Depends what you want buddy.

Hmmm, I wonder what he means then. Will give him a call to clarify. Cheers for the info mate.

Are you getting your dealer to do your grille surround sly200sx? It's just that I want mine black but I'm no good at DIY stuff. I was hoping I could get the dealer to get it properly done in black magic pearl.

Im really quite confused about the bluetooth business... I was told by the dealer that they will fit me a unit that will work exactly as a factory fit one should, through the dash display and headunit.... are the spinning me a line?!

I'm picking up on Sunday :D

Update: phoned them and asked about it in more detail and its just been fitted and he guarantees it will work exactly how factory fitted one does. Winner.
