I asked our dealer about delivery times for the Mk 4 Octavia iV and was told that it was 18 months but orders are no longer being taken. It's also disappeared from the brochure. I was considering buying a new fully-sorted iV but now it will be a 1.5 IC engine version. Here's hoping the insulating mat will be fitted by the dealer before selling it on!

Feels like a long shot to me...

 

Can I ask why you are changing car? I have only joined the forum to ask about the recall, apologies if this is being discussed elsewhere. 

I always change cars before the warranty runs out and in any case I am not confident that the Combi iV will be fault-free in future.

i ve let my car for service and they have changed the fuel cap 🤨

Just had an oil change done and as part of a recall, they have fitted the engine cover that was missing / removed.
