Picked up the Cupra from IMG on the 15th. Really impressed by it so far. As my previous car was a diesel, I need to remember that I have a few more revs to use!

Only niggle so far is the start stop being a bit iffy. Could be me being stupid though.....

What do you mean re- start stop being iffy?

Ordered mine through SEAT Stockport 1st week in Feb, just been told it's due to be built 1st week in April (build week 14 I was told) - expected at the dealership end of April/beginning of May. Would be a lot better than the 20 weeks I was quoted pre-order!

Yeah that’s the same time scale as mine ... was told 20 weeks originally too...
Certainly won’t complain though ...

After a while it disables itself. Only done it twice so far.

As in the engine automatically kicking back in?

In the pre facelift there's a menu option under Car that shows vehicle status. One of the options is stop-start.

It's shows you all the stop-start requests, and whether it's available or not.

I have issue with it sometimes when I have on the air conditioning and the engine needs to stay on.

Picked my week 6 build Nevada white Cupra up on Saturday from IMG. Adam had looked after me all the way through from my initial call back in October. One of the easiest new car collections I have ever encountered. Coming from a 2010 S3 on rock hard coilovers I was blown away by how well the Cupra rides on the big 19's yet firms up nicely in Cupra mode. It was a near 200 mile round trip to collect and it simply ate up the miles on the way home with ease. The cheeky crackles from the exhaust are enjoyable and not at all intrusive. Blown away by the virtual cockpit too, the amount of functions and clarity it offers are superb.

For evertyone still patiently waiting, hang in there! Its worth it!

My ST 4Drive is currently in transit to dealer - not collecting until 12th May to coincide with return of my M135i. Have to say communication from dealer has been very poor indeed, put me off using them again
