Build week for new Cupra 290's

[lukeoslavia]

How long does it take for the cars to reach the UK? I have been given an estimated time of delivery middle of December but the car isn't leaving until last week of this month. Starting to think I might miss the Christmas break and it will be January.

doesn't take long, that was my tracking.

Arghhh
Just confirmed that mine had been changed from Dynamic to Monsoon. No upgrades.... and now late Dec/ Jan
Have been given possible chance of swapping to in stock vehicle at dealer in Monsoon with Orange Pack and Sound. Standard Cupra and not Black so lose seats and wheels.
Thoughts people?????
But unsure about the Orange????
Stick or swap.

I'd stick with the change of grey rather than the ridiculous orange pack, but that's just me

Hi sorry if I've not described it right but a lad on pistonheads is thinking of letting his go
If u go to there 290 cupra black thread ull see what he's offering dynamic with dsg at £269 a month .

I've already got my dynamic and I wouldn't swap for world :

Yes cupra black all day in monsoon seats are great try get some skirts put on as a goodwill .
My original order was monsoon but on delivery the guy who unloaded wrote the car of 11 k of damage so they offered me a dynamic grey. Unsure at first but really happ know .

I have monsoon grey on my FR I think it looks great but I guess I am biased

[/IMG]Monsoon is an awesome colour especially in good sunlight. I tried to change mine to dynamic but am glad they wouldn't change it.

For everyone who has taken delivery of the car, did it come on a low loader or was it driven to them?

Thanks

We can just turn this into a monsoon grey appreciation thread

Mine, albeit not a cupra, was driven to me, first 100 miles were excluded from my personal annual mileage and there's no hiding the sort of driving the deliverer has done as it's all trip computed. Mine came from Leeds to nottingham so didn't eat into my mileage, I see lots of people saying low loader delivery was extra. My car is from Nationwide leasing

 

[Stubaloo]

Mine was driven delivery. Not my preferred choice but guess if anything was going to go wrong I guess it would of been on delivery .

Cheers people
Think I'll stick with Monsoon BE and wait till Christmas or January. Nice present for me!!
Think I will call back and try and ask for skirts as Goodwill instead of £250 high Street vouchers they mentioned.

Skirts are definitely worth it, still amazes me they're not standard on the cupra with it being top of the line but I guess I'll never understand car manufacturers

 

[dave_c]

Thanks for your answers, my previous were driven so I'm happy with that, just checking it over to make sure its not been abused.

I cant be there to collect it as my mate has rented a Ferrari F430 for the week, and going to collect that was more exciting haha! so lets hope my dad notices any issues

I was quite annoyed when I realised they were extra. Nevermind the 2 years always flys past and then ya no longer care!

 

[BenH]

Yeah I live in constant fear of catching them on a high curb or something so at least you'd avoid that pain

did everyone get gap insurance with ALA Gap?
