[andburg]

Hi guys

got a new work hack on order, but 16 weeks later just been given another 6 weeks.
Anyone know what the delay is?

Not sure, but my vRS took 8 months from order to delivery 3 weeks ago

Can beat that , ordered a Yeti and cancelled after nearly a year , seems VAG ration drive trains causing a long lead in on some Skodas

8 months?

Guess I'll be in short term rentahacks for a while longer!

When I bought my Facelift vRS back in 2011 I waited around 4 months for that. We agreed a trade-in price on my car based on "your new car should be ready in around 3 months" - but they had to take the hit because of the delays.
Skoda do a lot of building to order, victims of their own success and VW give them "last dibs" on parts - because every Skoda sale is a lost VW one!

4 months

Its now at the dealers, seems its an estate issue as colleague ordered a hatchback which needed a build slot and its arrived in 2 months
