I'm not holding my breath for this, but just ordered new company  car,  Octavia estate, eta may2023, but to be honest if it's late i won't mind as may get the facelift version?

It's going to interesting to see if I get a old Mk4 or Mk4.5 then. I'm not expecting my car until March 23 as I was told that the wait is approximately 12 months. 

 

So that means March or April 23. 

 

The main question is will they try and charge me the new price or honour the old one? And hopefully they'll have really got their act together and got rid of all of the bug's plaguing the current Mk4. 

Imho, you cannot get facelift car, if you ordered pre-fl one. In case they are not able to build it due to end of production of this car, theyll just cancel the order.

I spoke to a sales person at my dealer yesterday and was told that if you place an order now, the price on delivery will be fixed at the current cost.

That's what I was told in March, when I placed the order.

That would possibly be illegal under UK consumer law/rights. 

 

You have signed a legal document and if they make a loss on the deal that's their problem not the customers. 

I was told by a dealer that for orders placed from april 2022 forward they don't guarantee the price (Croatia)

Well mine was March and in the UK
