After a year away from Skoda, yesterday I ordered a new Fabia. Need the extra space now that my current SEAT Ibiza doesn't have.

Non available so factory order, so I got to play....

Fabia Estate SE L, in energy blue with beige interior and piano black dash insert, sports suspension, steering wheel in perforated leather and hill hold.

Now for the long wait, was told 12 to 13 weeks.. we'll see!

Join the club! I’m waiting on a colour edition (I don’t mind which colour out of Blue/Green/White as long as black wheels and roof) in the 95tsi guise. Hopefully will be with me beginning of March given it is in stock. 

 

Looking forward to hearing how you get on with it!  yours sounds nice for sure! 

Yours will be here before mine. I've had a Fabia 3 before, a 1.2tsi colour edition.

Well done good choice!

My factory order Fabia took 41days from order to delivery. I was amazed. 

That's quick, I'll be amazed if that happens.

I ordered my Monte Carlo in September and it was delivered to the dealer last week, having been told originally it would be March the production line seems to be working quicker at the moment. 

That's quite the wait! I ordered my Ibiza on the 27th December, and hopefully it was built this week.

Likewise, my motor has been faultless (less consumables) and fun over 2.5 years. Fact of the matter is I'm tanking miles on, there's no net difference between paying for a new car and its running costs vs running costs alone of the old car and a requirement for 4 doors (for the dogs) means it's a sensible move! I'm sure we'll both love our new motors.
