Phone Skoda UK with the chassis number or even better the comm (dealership order) number and they should give you build week

I'm surprised it's apparently not included on a label stuck on the card somewhere or in the documentation. Most mass produced electronic products include the year and week of manufacture somewhere on them.

Might say the production week on the data sticker under the boot floor or in the service book.

Picking mine up this Saturday, just over 3 months but the wait is finally over

Still waiting for a date. I ordered at the end of July and was told to expect it about October but nothing confirmed until the factory re-opens.

ARRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH     

 

Just had an email from my dealer (Naas) and the car didnt make the fecking ferry! and looks like it will be 3 weeks until the next one and 2 weeks after that before I will get the car. 

 

Apparently the ferry has a 700 car capacity and there was 1000 cars on the dock and mine was left in the 300 remaining cars! 

 

They should introduce simply clever PDI Service at the docks in Emden whereby if your car is left at the dock you can fly over, collect it and drive it home!

I did look at those, but I couldn't see anything that obviously looked like a week number and year.

or if you wanted to go to the Skoda factory in the Czech Rep. and collect it.

 

Mercedes-Benz offer this service from the brenum factory (spelling?) (though you do have to pay for it).

I feel your pain, mine missed the last boat, its on this one but its not left yet. Would have been quite happy to drive it from Emden or even Mlada Boleslav. Have driven a few new cars from Germany in the past, quite nice actually.

That's really annoying. Adding to the torture!

Waiting for mine also. Its at Emden so hopefully will get shipped any day now.

Although in fairness we could probably get ours within a week if they weren't being registered as 65 plates.

same here, although I'm happy to have a 65'er.......I wouldn't have known it was in the UK until Skoda UK told me. The same day I got an email to sign the registration doc for a 65 plate.

Got mine yesterday! Ordered 29th April. 16week wait but that's all over now!

The Weser Highway has just pulled up outside my office window so she won't have any Skoda's on this time. Will be full of BMW's.

Are there different parts of the dock for different manufacturers?
