Bit of a joke. Ordered 19th August, just called and Seat saying
build week 46/47......
I bet this is going to hit 18 weeks from the time of order
If I get mine by next Friday then that will have been 17 weeks since ordering.

Are you leasing from broker?
Christ! Where did you order from mate? And lease or PCP?
They also tell you lies all the time, as what they tell me is totally different to what Seat say.
I had gone through Park Vehicles who are affiliated with Johnsons Ltd. I ordered July 21st, updates were outstanding with screenshots of their real-time system. I take delivery on 20th October. The paperwork was all Seat Finance, which I was surprised about. A much better and easier process than with other lease brokers and Alphabet finance.
CVL are seemingly stuck with a system whereby they have to ring the dealers (or email) for an update and have no real-time system to look at themselves. The Pistonheads thread on our Cupras names DM Keith ooop North as one of their dealers, but I doubt that they'll want to give me the info.
I'm sure one of the lads on PH had said he'd just rang up a bunch of dealers asking if they'd an order with his name on, and is now getting info directly from the dealer.
Mine is via CVL as well, I seem to get a completely different build week each time I ring up
Craig at CVL gave me the build number after a bit of protest (I just said I’d ring him every other day for updates, or he could give it to me and I’d pester Seat UK instead) but wouldn’t tell me the dealers – neither would Seat.
What’s strange, is that the PH thread says that people are picking up from dealers so they have to know where to go!
To be honest, I’m being a pain in the ar$e as I’ll be having a new car detail from a friend who owns his own detailing company and he said to request PDI only…no hand washing at the dealers! He’s been in the game long enough to see how much damage is inflicted on the paints surface after only one bad hand wash from their forecourt monkeys, so asked Craig if he could request no wash before delivery. No idea if he’s asked – be probably just furrowed his brow, tutted and carried on with his day.
I've been pestering my lease company too! Just managed to get the order number for my cupra (ordered end of aug, build week 42 this week ). they sent over the order information and it had loads on, including the dealer where it will be delivered to so im going to give them a bell to see if they know the status.
Its lucky that im going to be within 5 mins of the dealership too so i can pick up. Happy days.
