@edrenshaw Now I believe!

Nice photo too, the car looks stunning by the way. I hope it puts a smile on your face and gives you years of trouble free motoring.

Mine FINALLY arrived today.  An actual car.  

When di you ordered it?

[edrenshaw]

Ordered in February.

 

Gone to detailer's today for a coating/protection.

 

Pics to follow in a few days.

I've had a response from the leasing company dealing with my car. 

It states that the orders for many cars have been heavily postponed due to a

"global shortage of semiconductor microchips which is currently causing issues in production for all the brands that we deal with" 

 

Looks like a long wait.....

Did you get any new delivery date? I ordered the same engine in April and got 30-35 weeks. Only different thing is that my car was pre-orderd in Feb.

Just spoke with Skoda UK for an update on mine.

 

Ordered mid-July, so not too long ago compared to other but status noted as parked which was described to me as in a queue to be accepted by the factory! 
 

Two months and the order hasn’t been accepted…? Could it be that the factory are no longer accepting the more recent orders until thing improve… whenever that may be?!!

I'm guessing, but I think they are accepting orders, but only putting the ones they have parts for in the actual queue. So if you order something that's not currently available it's going to sit there. That's why so many people don't have a date anymore.

Probably explains why I've hardly seen any new Octavias on the road..... 🙄

Those delivery times are a mess 😕  My last car i bought from skoda took 8 months... seems i am in for another long ride too...

[jonny boy]

It's unbelievable really. 

It's not as if we're ordering a Lamborghini with a bespoke interior 😂

That would probably come faster now, because not everyone wants to buy a Lambo.

Man, that's georgeous!

[skodilac1991]

we are probably due for atleast 6+ months of wait time.. My contract says 9 months so might be even closer to that timeframe. Such a ****show 😞

I have order 26th of Feb, manufactured on 20th of July, parked now waiting for missing parts, so I guess you are right

[Joss1733]

Just wondering about waiting lists in different countries.are they all the same? Or are different countries getting quicker delivery times.

It seems to be faster here. I waited 4 weeks for mine in May.

But here there are limited options and you order one of the ones that have been ordered by Skoda Australia.

This is the current stock situation for Octavias:
https://stock-cars.skoda-auto.com/959/en-AU/?step=filters&ModelFamily=NX_2021

There are 213 available across Australia.

62 are in my state (New South Wales).

50 are wagons (Ambition, Style, Limited Edition, RS)

10 are RS wagons.

1 is identical to mine (RS wagon, Moon White, Premium pack, no sun roof).

So I guess I could order one of those tomorrow and get delivery in the next week.

The only way you can get one quickly (next day) is to order one from stock, and there seems to be plenty of them. I don't imagine

they will be giving much discount on them either with the current situation.

 

So glad I got mine when I did in January.
