Well, that solves my dilemma...Just had it confirmed from Skoda Ireland that the 19" Xtremes are no longer orderable in Ireland :'(

 

So to the fellow Leaseplanner that has the red RS with the 19's that I saw waiting to be picked up a few weeks back in Annesley Williams Dublin...You lucky lucky b'stard

We don't have them in Spain either!

They delayed my order by 50 days as they had a supply issue on them. I guess various territories are removing them to avoid that sort of problem.

Just to rub it in... I got my Xtremes (upgraded from the Geminis) for free. There seemed to be a few sets of Xtremes around and the dealer was good enough to swap.  :clap:

 

Maybe all the Xtremes got sent to NZ by mistake...

That's what I am hoping for... just under a months wait now... 

That's odd, wonder if they will replace with a different set of 19s, Octys do look good with biggies on 'em.

same in Belgium and the Netherlands: no more Extremes available.

Just looked on the UK Configurator and when you elect them it comes up with a not compatible with this vehicle and won't let you select them. The black design plus packs is also gone which i believe has the same wheels!

Not to rub it in I've got them on my car and they are the best they look sweet and easy to clean too

They really are easy to clean aren't they! Easiest to clean alloys I've ever had. And as a bonus, you can reach right in and clean the red brake callipers!

I hate you all

 

But in the nicest posible way

 

Funny thing about the configurator...When I began looking initially a couple of months ago the black pack was a zero cost option...Then more recently it became a 63 euro option...Last week it went back to zero and now today its 62 euro??...What on earth is going on with that thing!

Another reason my parents should have gone ahead with emigrating to NZ before I was born

Funny thing about the configurator...

 

...yes, it is quite the stand-up comedian.  Essentially, it's a tool that allows you to have a play and get an idea of what options are available and how much they will cost.  However, it would always appear to have a few oddities, and so should never be relied upon to give you a final configuration / price - that can only come from your dealer when he tries to select options etc. on the order system.

Probably programmed by someone on thier last few days working there...

 

Although in fairness if it was me, I'd default the 'view car' option when the config is finished to always show a picture of a Ferrari F40...Or a skip....Nah, I'd reserve that for the KIA Sportage configurator, if one exists...If one does its probably like the braille version of the menu in McD's...It just repeats the line "doesn't matter what you order it all tastes **** anyway"

I ordered a Race Blue in July from the Skoda dealer in Athlone (with the extremes) - it was built last Friday so patiently awaiting delivery!  Looking at three weeks or so!  Cannot wait!

I ordered a Race Blue today...Probably looking at next April before I see it...Good luck with yours..I'm regularly around Athlone on the Sunday morning club spin with my cycling club....Must keep an eye out for ya!

Just heard from my dealer... Extremes are gone from NZ availability for new orders too... & none going 'spare' either.

 

There goes my dream of a free upgrade... 

Not available on Uk Configurator either

-1 stink. On the plus side, if I find some 19" I like more, I might get good money for my xtremes.

You can order the 19" Extremes. They now come as part of the Black Design Package Plus in the UK

Ah ffs..Now the Pictoris Alloys are gone from Irish Spec...I had to choose between silver or anthracite Gemini's...If I chose the anthracite gems though the increase in cost (140 yoyos) would mean my company car order would have to go all the way back through the hoops again delaying it further...So, its Race Blue with Silver Gemini's...Anyone have this spec with a few pics?

Go for another wheel instead. Its so boring When everyone has the same setup. You dont have to buy the org. Skoda wheels.

Unfortunately its a company car so I have to stick with the options from Skoda...The silver Gemini's seem to be quite rare so that might make it a bit more unusual...

I ordered my Vrs in July with the Xtremes. it was a £650 upgrade so i'm really hoping they don't cause a delay in delivery. Its a lease through hitachi and they wernt the best on the configurator. They do look the dogs though.

 

Fingers crossed my jan delivery comes in before xmas as they told me on 17th oct that the car was being shipped.
