Mine sat in Emden for 9 days. It's now at Tyne and it's been there 5 days so far. Not that I'm counting...

I don't know how often they ship to the UK I'm guessing twice a month. At least I will have the latest maps as new update is out this month!

I wouldn't bank on that.

They ship to Tyne twice a week so I'm guessing other ports will be similar. The time spent in the ports seems to be a bit random but I believe the maximum should be 10 working days for each port.

Not sure what port they will use as I'm in Wales.

As you’re in South Wales, it will probably be Sheerness.

Mine came via Grimsby and was at my dealership 6 days later.

My 1.5 SEL dsg was on it’s way to Emden last week.

You British are lucky guys. I am from Slovenia and I ordered my Karoq 1.5 TSI DSG with 5 extras on 19th of march 2018,  planned delivery period is at the end of December or early January 2019.

Blimey! What a wait!

Then give it a week to arrive from there to your dealership in South Wales.

I’m so jealous.... I only ordered my 1.5 SEL DSG in Moon White three weeks ago.... it has just about every option except the digital dashboard! I suppose a car with multiple options will take longer than a “standard” one which rolls off the production line. I hope I’m incorrect with my assumption. 

It still shows build wk48 but unconfirmed. I won’t hold my breath waiting for delivery!

5 options on mine including digital dash looking like 3 months from order to hand over.

Finally got a confirmed build week 46 next week for my 1.6 se l black automatic karoq so hopefully have it before Christmas has been a long road as 6 months from original order and being told 10 or 11 weeks

That sure is a long time especially as the diesel versions got WLTP approval long befor the 1.5 TSi. My 1.5 TSi SE L DSG with 2 options has taken 3 months from ordering to arriving at the dealership!

I saw it on another topic saying it was standard now in the new specs so should be a wee bonus you didn’t expect

Don’t know what the hold up was  car was ordered through dealer on the 20th July Skoda factory accepts build order on the 2 August don’t think they could cope with the demand for the car
