I went for Hyper Green, agree with your comments . It can look really nice but also the washed out yellow on certain screens.

I've had a lot of black, silver, grey, white etc with our Tesla being red (nice shade of red actually) . Decided to go with something a bit crazy, I'm either going to love it or absolutely hate it 😬

Hopefully you'll love it 🤞

13 hours and one more sleep and I get to pick up my new baby 😁👍

My new baby ........

85 SportLine

Goes like thingywotsit off a stick 😃

Got 3.1 miles/kWh absolutely thrashing the acceleration and cruising at 80-85 on motorway!

Looking forward to seeing what I get driving more sensibly 😇

spelling mistake

Nice! They are greast to drive! My test drive was an 85 Edition, but in the end had to settle for an editon 60, power difference is noticeable!

It no longer matters about posting on a public forum about exceeding the speed limits & loss adjusters checking social media if the drivers was in an accident anytime and deaths or life changing injuries.

The cars brain can just be checked and the GPS information will be there if there is need to build a case against a driver as to their usual driving behaviour.

Big brother is already here without the need Black Boxes fitting.

Does anyone else feel apprehensive, I currently drive an IX3 which is a lovely car, but being a company car and retiring in Feb it has to go, prices on the IX3 used have really dropped and a 24 reg low mileage I have seen for 39k, but with 7k deposit and 7.9% interest works out so much more than the Elroq, but never having driven a Skoda you start to wonder if decision has been made on 0% finance and £3500 deposit contribution, but think I have seen all the reviews and all are positive, but difficult to gauge how big the car will be in the flesh, I think the height is about 2" lower than the IX3, but I am hoping access is similar for an old codger!!

They are freaking ace ! Enjoy 😀

Just placed my order for my new Elroq; Edition 85 with a few extras - garage advised 17-19 weeks, so hopefully here for the New Year!

Got an update from the garge, build week is confirmed for week 43, they're hopeful it could be delivery in 2025!

Fingers crossed, mine was apparently built week 34 and been sat at Emden for weeks

Hello All

First time poster and first time Skoda owner (well it's my wife's car).

Picking up an Elroq VRS in Meteor Grey, 21 inch Vision alloys, heat pump, Winter pack and Maxx Pack next week. Any hints and tips would be greatly appreciated.

Very nice, I hope you enjoy and same spec apart from colour of the one I ordered .

Mine has has been built apparently since August but sat at the docks, spoke to the dealer and still no date for leaving Embden, I'm tired of it and have invoked my right to cancel if they don't delivery the car within 14 days as they are 21 days over the estimated delivery

It’s the only colour, apart from the green, that we felt went with the green piping on the interior. If a different coloured interior was available we’d have gone for that and then had red as the exterior colour.

Mine’s been sitting at Emden since end of August, the garage says that there are hundreds of cars sitting waiting there atm. Asked how long the journey was and they advised once shipped should be in UK next day by can take up to 2 weeks once on UK soil to be released to owner. Edition 60 in Timiano Green, build week was 33 have only seen 2 Elroq’s in East Sussex so far on in Electric Blue, one in Moon White, happy with my choice of colour though. Very bored of waiting though…

I'm in the same situation, mines also been sat there since end of August.

Dealer has been chasing them and has said the same thing as you, escalated to Skoda myself and their customer service is appalling.

As I need a car by November I've triggered my right to cancel if they cannot deliver the car by the 24th October, there is a clause in the contract if they don't delivered within 21 days of estimated delivery date you can serve 14 days notice .

Appear to be plenty in stock around the country in the same spec, will grab one or now thinking about a polestar 4

Thanks, seen that one. It it's missing a few options I wanted on it . On Skoda there are a few in different colours .

Have you looked at Available immediately from skoda itself?

Thanks, been keeping an eye on them. I'm going to give my dealer to October 24th which then trigger the exit clause so I can walk away without any contractual complications.

There is a nice red one I'm keeping an eye on

Ideally you'd want maxx pack, winter pack and heat pump.

Just spoke to dealer, ŠKODA is in UK right now, should be with me within 2 weeks (apparently)

That's cool, mines still showing at as Emden, also sat there since end of August .

I gave notice in writing to Skoda to cancel , we came to an agreement and the dealer has lent me a Karoq Sport line until it turns up, oddly they dealer told me that it should be here by the end of October . Two large ships came into Sheerness over the last couple of days so hopefully on one of them.

Sat in an Elroq sport line as I haven't sat in one since I ordered, very nice .

Hurrahh , she's finally in the country and exist, they are hoping to transport for the end of next week .

Will get some photos up when it's collection time
