Not necessarily - mine said 16/12 but I had the car 7/12.

I think thats a "longstop" date required to issue the docs.

That's good to hear. Hopefully it will arrive before the 23rd. Thanks.

[MR2 Steve]

Mine says 23rd but should be able to collect next week.

After you've signed and sent the agreement off, did you guys get any written/email confirmation back, or just go to collect the car?

Does anyone think VehicleSavers are jumping the gun on this?...

Yes - Carly at Lookers confirmed she had received them, confirmed VWFS had approved delivery and then one to confirm my desired delivery date.

Looks good until you do the math on the 9+.

Hate this job....


On the bright side, I'm going to get my wife a set of Wheel Woolies instead of Gucci perfume this year. She'll have them done in no time!

Boring post alert....

Just looking out the window at the car an noticed sporadic placement of the black covers for the wheel nuts, I doubt that they have been nicked as they would have all gone but wandered if anyone else had noticed the same:

Front Driver: 5 black caps
Front Passenger: 4 Black caps
Rear Driver: 4 Black caps
Rear Passenger: 2 black caps

Just wandered if anyone else had them missing as assumed they would come from the factory with them fitted

Mine has all 5 black covers on each wheel - you have been short changed!

I noticed the first time I washed the wheels on my brand new A3 some of the caps were loose and would probably be ready to fall off. They just needed pushing in properly.

Will there be actually any difference in bhp between the 290 and 300 variant? I thought the 290s were producing 300bhp anyway...

Does anyone have any comments about excessive wind noise on their Cupras at motorway speeds?

I seem to have an annoying amount of wind noise coming from the top corner of the drivers door, right next to my ear. I was going to try and live with it but after covering 600 miles this weekend im convinced its not normal.
Ive checked the seals and door alignment which show no obvious issues.. the cynical me doesn't really want to take it to the dealer, as its not one of those easy to diagnose issues.. plus they would have to take it on a extended "fast" test drive to replicate the issue.

No wind noise of note (only a general rise ).

You could tape up various bits to see when it disappears (as it's quite a specific source, it should be easy to narrow down . Also check it's not the front corner of the rear door.

Of course it should be the dealer's job, but if it's a simple fix, much easier to do it yourself

[Through the gears]

Just back after a 220 mile journey from picking it up. Well it is certainly quick. Very quick.

I get the noise you're on about. Like a buzzing noise behind right ear when driving. Averaged 36-37 mpg.

I've seen about the sat nav postcode entries and a box saying PTCD meant to come up. I can't see this anywhere.

Edited. Now found the postcode entry.

Mine was BW 47 with Wessex - heard nothing since the 'build week 47' notification.

Anyone else with Wessex?

I never received a build week or order number from Wessex. However, I hope to receive a car tomorrow from them!

Only the newly announced Cupra 300 but they won't be available until later next year. The deals aren't as good as the current Cupra deals.
