After many months (order placed at the beginning of May), my excellent sales rep has just sent me a short video of my Business Grey 1.5TSi SEL DSG with digital dash. It's at the dealer and has a registration number - so exciting! Hoping to have it by the weekend for a trip we have planned. Sorry but I'm unable to attach the video without attaching personal details with it!

Excellent! Pleased for you! And I congratulate you on the colour and spec also

Double tease! No teaser video but I bet it looks awesome with the dash coming to life

I picked mine up mid October after ordering it in early March. When the digital dash became available after the year 19 spec was confirmed in late August I repeatedly asked Skoda UK for mine to be upgraded to have the digital dash and was refused despite the build not occurring until the 3rd week of September. How did you manage it?. Thanks for your reply regarding the low speed engine fault. 

I did the same thing as you - so it was probably a combination of luck, timing and an excellent salesman who didn’t want to lose a sale! I am also in Milton Keynes which I believe makes a difference. Mine was the first one they had seen with the digital dash, so there was great excitement! Can’t fault them really - apart from the aforementioned problem. I reckon a quick remap of the ECU would sort it out but I guess I’ll have to wait as I don’t want to invalidate the warranty. I think the problem is that if they send out a patch it will alter fuel consumption and have knock on WLTP implications? Could be expensive and tricky for them to solve.

I agree with you about getting a quick fix. My son is trying to order a Kodiaq with your spec so it will be good to see his dashboard whenever it arrives. I really am hoping that the fuel consumption improves, I only have 600 miles on the clock but some longer runs due in the next 2 weeks should help if I am not parked on the M25 for too long. Let me know what reaction you get from your super dealer regarding the engine

Mine car with digital dash is at dealers picking up next weekend. First one my dealer ordered end of August.
