Hi

I have just ordered my first new Skoda. I've opted for a Yeti Greenline 2 SE in black. (I know some members don't like black, but all my cars have been that colour.)

As an older driver, the things I was looking for in a car are reliability, economy and style. I live in a remote location, so the removable back seats are a real plus. I can stock up with provisions, furniture and the kitchen sink.

My one concern is delivery time. I've been quoted 16 weeks. I'm giving my old car to my son, who is going to scrap his banger in 21 weeks, when the MOT tax and major service would be due. A long delay could be a problem.

I'm keeping my fingers crossed. I can't wait, if you see what I mean.

Good car choice I've just ordered my second and many members have done the same, I ordered last week and have been promised a mid march delivery.

I guess there is always chance of delays. Just keep on at your dealer see if they can push it. Although I believe it's out of their hands at that point.

Fingers crossed for you.

I only had to wait about 7 weeks for delivery of a TDI 140 4x4 - really annoying for me since I had hoped my old one would see me through the winter and had anticipated about 4-5 months. Salesman said deliveries were really speeding up except for exotic specs so hopefully you'll be lucky.

Another North West Scotland owner-- Sutherland.

I've just had a call today to say that my build date is week 10, so that's the week commencing 4th March which I assume means maybe2-3 week after that for it to arrive over here. I'm a little gutted as I thought I might have it by mid march at the latest.

think yourselves lucky, back in 2011 Yeti diesel lead times were around the 12 month mark!

It will be worth the wait, cracking cars

Ordered L&K 1.8TSi today and told 12 weeks.
