"Fluttering" Build Weeks

[Markyg]

Alloys look great, better than on the white sport IMO

IMO they look better on a white sport

IMO they look better on a white sport

Hmmmmm....I wonder why

I wasn't saying they were not nice on a white sport as well, just like them a bit more against the red paint

[Markyg]

Hmmmmm....I wonder why

Lol.

I actually prefer the black sport. But I think the 500 premium is daft on a car costing 10k. Mind you, vw are charging 450 for white cars now. I think red is pretty much the only colour across their range that is free. I think some of the other colours are free too but only a couple.

Got a photo of it! 

 

Looks the same as the rest of the 5 door sports at the mo until we get our white wheels.

Well our white 5dr sport is at the dealer. Wifey has given in slightly on the stripes; we're keeping the door bottoms and tailgate stripe, but the others have been removed. unfortunately we've backed down (for the foreseeable) on a black wrapped roof - other things to spend our money on like boys' Christmas presents!

 

Interestingly the dealer and considering getting 1 of their fabia reactions wrapped in a bright colour as the battleship / primer grey ain't selling!

 

Oh forgot to add - collection Monday

Had a nice phone call to say my car has been built today and has left the factory so should be in the UK within two weeks.

 

Keep looking at all the nice cars on the forum and can't wait to get mine now

[Damo]

Not long now fella

Just received an email today from the dealer to advise we have been allocated build week 11. This is for a car ordered on 25th of November.

That makes it almost 15 weeks! I'm glad we are in no rush for the car.

Thanks mate!

Cant wait for mine to turn up hopefully time goes quick lol

[jonnymick]

Ordered mine 30th Sep.

 

White 5dr Sport, bonnet, roof and mirror stripes removed, spare wheel.

 

Took delivery 9th Dec, (Should have been 8th but dealer noticed marks/bubbling on skoda badge and chrome around grille)

 

I'll take a photo when I see some daylight - by which time it'll no doubt be filthy!

i'd better get on to my dealer, I ordered the week after you

[chirps]

Ordered my white 5dr elegance beginning of November and been allocated build week 4.

Ordered my white 5dr elegance beginning of November and been allocated build week 4.

The same build week as my Elegance but I ordered it on 8th October. Deep Black Pearlescent paint clearly takes time.

What extras did you get, if any?

[Allicia8]

YAY! My car is built!  It was originally supposed to be built week 48 but was moved to week 50.  It (apparentley) rolled off the Bratislava production line yesterday so I guess it'll be mid January before it's here.  I ordered it 23rd Sept and was quoted 16 weeks so it will hopefully be spot on...fingers crossed! 

 

Can't wait!!!

 

BTW, it's a candy white 75ps Elegance 5-door with spare wheel, entertainment pack and sunset glass.

[Damo]

Nice one Allicia

[veedub210]

What is the likelihood of asking the dealer to check with Skoda to add some reversing sensors for a car ordered almost three weeks ago. I'll ring them tomorrow and see what they say :wonder:

[Jayw]

Hi all

Just had a call from the dealer to say my 3dr Elegance is built and left the factory

Ordered 6th October so around 10 weeks to build.....quicker than my mk2 fabia took!

[Damo]

Citigo owners numbers are swelling now

Don't forget to pm me when you guys get them (if you want to be on the owners list that is)

[staib]

Is there a shortage of car doors?

5 door models seem to take longer to make than 3 door cars.

Our elegance was ordered in early September and appears to be scheduled for a mid Feb build :(

I know that patience is a virtue but mine is being stretched. The original dealer suggestion at the time of the order was mid to late Dec. Like NOW...

Oh well - back to reading about deflectors, PIDs and MTecs

Meanwhile Merry Christmas to all you lucky Citigo owners!

[Damo]

Merry xmas staib

[bigfish]

Ordered 6/9/13 elegance 5 dr, red with convenience pack.  Confirmed build week 5.

Bring back the old days i say when dealers had stocks of cars in the compound.None of this waiting for months for your car.

 

   You used to go into the dealer,tell him what you wanted.He had a look on his stock sheet,and you picked up the car the same week.
