"Should" be in it by the end of June, not bad for an October order!!

VW Group really hurting Skoda's reputation first with Dieselgate scandal now these absurd delays on VRS models.

Mine was built on 30 April but is still at Grimsby and I won’t have till 1st week June (so 5 weeks from build to delivery at the moment).  Took 16 days from build to get shipped from Emden.  Shipping was a day and been sat in Grimsby since 17th awaiting transport to dealer so quite slow back end.. hope yours is quicker 

I just wanted to say that you have a lot of patience, I thought my wait of 199 days was bad enough. I hadn't really appreciated that people were waiting even longer than I did. At least the end is in sight.

Had the mobex car since the start of MArch like which has softened the blow a bit.

 

Free motoring.

Free fuel too..?!

Well no obviously, but no insurance, monthly payments or tax.

 

 

Had my call on Thursday to say the car has been built and is now on the way to the UK.

 

Anyone want to buy an M3 which is now surplus to requirements

Hopefully you’ll be driving ur new car before the end of June 

Car is being built this week.  How long usually until the car is shipped?  
 

Getting closer!

Mine was built on 30th April but still waiting - car has been at port in UK since 17th May awaiting transport so allow yourself 5-6 weeks i’d suggest

 

my car took 16 days from

Factory build to travel to Emden and get loaded onto a ship ready for transport to the UK

Finally hit the big 200 today... 200 days and still awaiting delivery....  

 

what’s worse is looking out the window and seeing the perfect driving weather 

My memory seat buttons don't work..........maybe because the car has been sat for a while......is it possible to reset myself or is it a trip to the dealer ?

I passed 200 days last week and has still not been built 

So week 22 has come around. Is anyone still waiting for their MY18 car to be built?  If so what BW do you have?

Not gold, in fact ordered it in primer (meteor grey) to save time with them painting it

I think soon as you find out it has gone status 39 you can then check what boats are due to leave Embden for UK. AFAIK only Grimsby, Sheerness or Tyne are used now?

Where can i check that?  Somewhere online?

 

Spoke to Skoda and my car is build and at Embden
