Superb Order tracker

I was quite gutted when i found out i was getting Helios wheels, but dare i say it, I quite like them and think they suit the 17" wheels better. They look much better in the flesh - i was worried they'd look like the super basic taxi wheels you see on old octavias, but they are really smart.

Agreed with you here, they are not as awful as some make out. I deliberately specced then on an SE L exe having seen then in the flesh on an SE Business in the showroom.

looks like they are definitely getting faster. Mine was 18 weeks.

[Kev Hamilton]

Collected my car today after nearly 19 weeks of waiting. Definitely worth the wait :-)

Shame you ordered Helios from the factory. I'd have gladly swapped for mine!

[Briz1234]

Just had my confirmed build week 52 moved to next year . How annoying is that.

Factory closed week 52 and 53 according to skoda UK. That's after they told me start of the week factory was open week 52 and car build week confirmed as week 52.

Couldn't organise a p@&s up in a brewery

[Bally]

Called Skoda CS for an update this afternoon.

 

Car now built and on train to Emden :clap:

[unclerichy]

Spoke to Skoda CS this morning to check that they have the correct items from my order (they do) and found it it's fallen back from estimated week 5 to week 8. Meh 

[Andyoak21]

Well my order is all correct, but still no bw getting abit annoying as other who have ordered after me now have confirmed build weeks. I await skoda giving me an update on Tuesday, they say they are very busy that's why I have not had a date yet but others have.

"Colinjoiner" and "Woodmannuk", how are you getting your updates, my car was ordered late September, with a build week of week 50, this week. On Monday this week I was told the car was built and released for delivery. A bit of race for it being delivered before Christmas I am it in new year. I see from your updates that you seem to be getting update during the week when as the car goes to each stage, I assume you are getting updates via customer services rather than dealer.

1.6 TDI SE DSG Quartz Grey

Asked dealer at the start that I would like regular updates on the order.Car is at the dockside booked for the next available crossing which I believe is sunday .

[Kev Hamilton]

Me too, I took a flyer and went for Magnetic Brown Metallic with Beige Leather interior so really keen to see what it looks like in the flesh as mine is a March 16 delivery.

Colour is darker than I thought it would be but I think it suits the car really well. It was very wet today so photos were difficult - need a nice sunny day to see the colour properly. I posted one photo in the photos thread anyway. Really pleased with the car. Adaptive cruise and the satnav system are great.

I think that the colour will really "pop" in the sunshine, I'm pretty sure that the car on page 24 of the brochure is Magnetic Brown Metallic

 

I think that I made the right choice seeing as we don't have as much choice of colours compared to the Czech Republic and others with 74 colours to choose from, if I can't have Oranžová Tangerine then its Magnetic Brown Metallic

I receive a fortnightly call from my dealer.  They notified me additionally when the car was confirmed as being built and when showing as built and in transit.  My car was ordered on 26th September.  It is the 1.4 SEL estate DSG.  Should be ready for collection during the first week of January.   (All parts crossed)

Thanks guys, I ordered also on the 26th September. An 1.4TSI 150 SE-L Petrol Blue Hatch. I am getting weekly updates on a Monday, so edge of the seat waiting. Looking like ours cars are on the same boat. 

Timings I was given from dealer and quoted on here was 1 day to build, 2 weeks to dock and UK. 1 week from UK dock to dealer. Then its dependent on dealer 3 or 4 days to prep and PDI. Dealer has stated 1st week January, but stated see what they can do. So we have to wait and see, but I accepted to wait until January.

Hello, as you can probably tell I'm new.

 

Yesterday i had an email from my dealer saying that my car is built waiting release from factory. Has anyone here got any idea of how long on average it takes for a SIII to arrive in the UK from Factory?

 

For anyone that is interested i have ordered a 2.0TDI 150ps Manual SE Business in Moon White, Ordered on 28th October, so just over 6 weeks so far

[Andyoak21]

Well had email from dealer today ordered mine 21 October finally have a unconfirmed bw of week 7. Needless to say I am abit cheese off, don know what to do now as all lanes for Jan delivery now looking at March at best. Does not help considering other people on here getting confimed orders way before mine and ordering after.

Impressive going!

Normally it would be 3-4 weeks (to delivery), but you've obviously been tagged as a VIP. It's probably here by now ;-)

PS - Someone has recently posted an answer to this somewhere...

Well to be honest I have them in my current L&K and didn't really see the point in them. Nine times out of ten they would be switched on by mistake and when they were on they used to be fairly noticeable. Also they were a pain to clean if something was spilt on them. The holes seemed to suck on the liquid.

Also I don't plan to replace it any time soon and I like gadgets. Although just looked through and I have missed off the Phonebox and 5 year warranty )
