I just watched the overview of the Karoq and it has a fully digital display instead of the dials / maxidot. I wonder when / if the Kodiaq will get this too. See vid.

 

 

 

I'm guessing that the digital display would be an extra (at least on the lower spec levels)   

The kodiaq (and the superb/octavia/etc) may not get it until at least the MY19 changes at the earliest.

Ok, which is week 22 2018. Too far out for me.

My dealer (Marshall, Reading) told me not before end 2018.  But then he would say that, he wanted me to get on and place my order, which I duly did!

I like the Kodiaq and had a four day test with a top spec model thanks to my local dealer. I also had a test ride in the Karoq (sorry Ateca) again top spec for three days and really liked them both but will probably wait for the Superb Hybrid.

That's my local one too. Ian was sorting me out.

It’s a small world, I placed my order with Craig.  Have you finalised your order yet?  I’ve gone for 2.0TDI 150 4x4 DSG Edition with tow assist package, petrol blue.  Very excited!

I’ve ordered a new car but almost didn’t, awaiting availability but decided that might be a year away. 

 

The good news is that it should be able to be retrofitted judging by those with VW’s that have done the swap.

Kind of. Took a test drive and was ready to go, but opted to go through carwow and Ruislip. Saves an additional grand , plus 400 more on my part-ex. 2.0 TDI SE L DSG in petrol blue with a pano roof.

Sounds like you've done well, I'm pleased with the deal I got but I used carwow and managed to get close to the same deal, but it has effectively cost me to use a local(ish) dealer, hope they treat me well for it!

 Ironically it looks like the Karoq won't be getting it until next year either. Not on the initial build anyway...
