When did you order, when is it arriving?

Well the signed contracts were sent back yesterday so whenever they decide to process and update the status...... I think I'm looking at 2-3 weeks at a minimum.
Is there any way to waive this 14 days nonsense?

No delivery date as yet but as mine is a lease I have a 2 week cool off period before the car can be delivered.
The 14 day cooling off period starts on day 1, when you collect the car, regardless of when you signed the agreement.

Has anyone who’s Formentor was on Aquarius Ace that docked on the 17th been given a collection date? Nothing from my dealer yet.
Hi, yes mine was on the same boat, its at the dealers today, I'm living it up Friday! Actually excited. Chase your dealer I reckon

Not really a bad thing to be honest, I'll be paying a full month's PCP for a car I will only have for 6 days of September. I'd still recommend you chase your dealer though, if others have been delivered from the same boat they must at least have an eta for you 🤞👍

VZ2 310 Midnight Black, Blue Nappa, no extras. Ordered from Company new car discount scheme late May (not through a dealer). No build date as yet. Last communication less than two weeks ago when I enquired about adding the newly available 'top down' camera. Suggested still on time for a 30/10/2021 delivery date.
We’re you able to add the top view camera ?

The car was scheduled to arrive at the supplier during the week commencing 11/10, with delivery thereafter. I’ve just received a call saying it’s already with the supplier and will be delivered to my home on 29 September!!!

That’s fantastic… which model have you gone for? Do you know what build week you were? Enjoy the car. Can’t wait for mine, no idea when though

Great news! Are you out of the 14 day cooling off period?

That's awesome I bet you're well happy. I ordered through UKCarLine too and they told me the 'supplier' won't be getting the car till November now :( was supposed to be build week 37 but CUPRA SLI system is showing that it's still in production. What spec did you go for ? And what was your build week just out of curiosity?

Thanks

This is what i was told today:-

SEAT decided in the end to have a factory close down [ 18th August ] , they weren't going to due to high demand, but the chip shortage forced it, so they are out of sync on all builds. They are now building everything up to stage/wk 20 status, with missing parts on the production line, then they go into a compound and are completed there as they get the missing bits, then they go to 30 status and can go on a ship. But they are having trouble filling the ships with status 30 cars, so the dates are a little haywire and hard to work out .

So the status that we are used to seeing isn't there anymore, even though the car is built, we do not SEE it as built until it hits status 30.

I’m absolutely buzzing! I ordered a VZ2 310 no extras on 13/5, haven’t got a clue on the build week, sorry. I’m having a really strange experience with the insurance that looks like it’s going to reduce by 50% from my existing premium.

I ordered my VZ2 late May and was pleasantly surprised when I received a confirmed build week of 32 (9th August). Although it went into production at the alloted time it still isn’t built. I check every week. Here’s the latest message:-

Hey Steve, we’re sorry but your CUPRA Formentor still hasn't been able to complete production, this is most likely as it is awaiting parts due to the ongoing global parts shortage. We'd recommend dropping us a message next week to check for any changes, however if you have any concerns over your order or any issue surrounding this please contact your CUPRA Retailer to discuss this further. Thanks.

Ordered a VZ3 late May and was also given a confirmed build week of 32. I’m getting exactly the same info as you from CUPRA- it’s half built, awaiting parts they don’t have, and no timescale on when it’s likely to be finished…
