Dealer phoned me today to say that Skoda UK will continue to support the free Jumbo/Zenith 18s/Dual CC etc into the next quarter as long as order and deposit placed before the end of June.

Now whether this is a partial admission of the overall continuation of the offer into the next quarter I am not sure.

But if you want a factory order and were worried about the cut off date - check back with your dealer.

Good news is the dealer also said my vRS should be in production Build Week 24 (14th June) and delivered within 2 or 3 weeks of that.

Thanks for the heads up.

I'll phone the dealer tomorrow and ask them if they have any news on the free upgrade front

The car was ordered on May 17th so I shouldn't have any problems.

You get a thanks for that as well my friend as it could potentially do me a massive favour

Even though my build is pretty quick - only ordered on last Bank Holiday (7th May) - my dealer said that as long as the vehicle has a chassis number then they can consign and register the car to validate freebies (which includes the low rate 5.1% APR and free servicing) - even if the the car isn't "physical" by 30th June - ie actually delivered in July.

I wonder if the 0% finance deal will also be extended.

I was rung by my dealer 2 weeks ago to say the Dual zone/ jumbo pack that I'd paid for was now going to be free! He was a bit miffed due to the fact I'd haggled hard. I asked him if I'd get the alloy upgrade but he said I wasn't eligible due to the fact I hadn't ordred them in the 1st place (fair enough)

I ordered on the 21st of March. It was a nice suprise anyway!

I wonder if the 0% finance deal will also be extended.

NOUGHT PERCENT :eek:

The dealer said they will be told between 20th and 25th June if the current 5.1% to 5.5% APR deal is continuing (it's actually the same flat rate, but the mandatory admin and purchase fees change the overall APR).

Thanks for the heads up.

I just noticed that funny "Thanks" button - wondered what it was for.

So do these points make prizes?

1,000,000 Thanks = 2008 Superb

500,000 Thanks = Fabia vRS

20,000 Thanks = Remap or your choice

1,000 Thanks = PYR8 SatNav Disc (2007 "Test" Edition)

100 Thanks = one go on the VAGCOM machine

... ooh I know, I'll set up another forum account then I can pat myself on the back
