I wonder if mine is on that boat but I've had no contact from SEAT Derby since ordering at the end of October.

Give them a call, updates are down to individual sales staff some are spot on some are not
Mine Rebecca, has just emailed me at different points since I ordered in October with updates...

The chap from SEAT Derby dealing with me on the personal lease side has been really good. As always it will be down to the individual.
Gents, and any ladies amongst us.
Spreadsheet updated - HERE
Please let me know as and when you get yours. I won't be adding any new orders now, as it takes up a surprising amount of time to update it, plus the main backlog seems to be clearing, which is good news.
If anyone wants to carry on updating the spreadsheet, give me a shout and I'll email it to you.
Was hoping to report back with my "Long Term" MPG from the on-board computer but it reset itself, along with the Long Term Distance, Distance Since Refuel, Distance Since Start, MPG Since Refeul, MPG Since Start, and the trip computer. Plus the clock had reset back to 0000
it's messed with my OCD, I wanted to keep the Long Term counters running from brand new
Anyone know why it reset? I just got into my car one morning and noticed the clock then the counters.

Hi Luke, update to your sheet for mine:

Got the registration plate today and car due to dealer 28th Feb. Picking up 7th March on an 18 plate.

Got a call from them today to say the car has arrived at dealer. Ordered 31 October. Its come sooner than I thought so going to call VWFS and see if they'll let me return the 280 in March.

Have you had any issues with android auto / apple car play? Guessing it came activated etc?

Apply CarPlay for me. No not really. It had a bit of a tizzy the other day and stopped working but I think it was my more my phone than the car.
It’s very handy. I listen to a lot of podcasts whilst driving so it’s perfect being able to control the Podcasts app via the screen. You can only use Apple Maps though, but that’s an Apple decision not SEAT.

Had a call from Raheel (SEAT Complaints Manager for those who don’t know). He offered me a free service as a goodwill gesture.
I pointed out that others have been offered £250 to spend within the SEAT network or a cheque for £250, which he previously denied was happening, but he confirmed it was being offered but not in my case.
I explained about the spreadsheet (sad I know) and that I’d actually waited the longest so far, that I was told I’d have the car by Christmas but it was subsequently two months late and that I had to hand my old Leon back in earlier. He didn’t say much but said if I wanted the cheque he’d have to go and talk to his boss and talk to me on Friday.
Thoughts? Accept the service and be happy or push to get the cheque like others?

Both! But if not successful then whichever is worth more, presumably the cheque.

I'm really surprised that they're making you work for the cheque as it's come so easy to others.
Personally that's what I'd be pushing for.
In terms of service do you normally go to a main dealer?
If at the end of the day all that is on offer is the service. Make sure it's the major that gets gifted as with the main dealer that can stretch from £240 upwards which gets you around the value of the cheque

Me too. It’s a bit of an insult really. I’m over the moon with the car but SEAT themselves haven’t been great throughout. The dealer were good but SEAT no. They even pulled the deal on the finance because the build took so long, so the dealer had to cough up extra cash.
I do usually go to the main dealer but with PCH you have to anyway, according to the documents I got.
He just said “the next service” which I’ve checked and the first one is just a minor which is £169. I’m definitely going to push for the cheque. Yeah, if I have no luck with the cheque I’ll ask for the second year service.

Definitely push for that cheque Luke, you have had one of the longest waits of anyone on here, if not the longest!!
I've not heard from my dealer for nearly 2 weeks since we discussed keeping the car until March. Is it reasonable to expect I should have heard something about collecting it -I get the impression some people know what their 18 registration is going to be and yet its all quiet on my front

I phoned Matt at JCB earlier this week and he said he would be emailing the registration and finance documents out before the end of this week. I believe you are picking up your car the same day as me?
