I'm no nearer knowing when my car might arrive. See below from Leasing Options:

"Just to keep you updated the dealer has chased the factory and they still have no confirmed date / ETA, we will of course keep checking and let you know as soon as we get any more news."

Kind Regards

I got the same reply when I chased up mine on Monday. Copy and Paste job. I know it's not Leasing Options' fault and I feel bad for pestering but at the same time I just don't want my order to be overlooked because they're so busy whilst my car is sat in the UK for a week or two.
I want to cancel but have a feeling as soon as I do my car will arrive. Haha

Sometimes the overwhelming urge is to cancel, but in doing so, you’ll only put yourself at the back of somebody else’s queue. Unless of course, you’re lucky enough to find something that’s already in the UK

If it's any consolation (and not trying to make you even more jealous), I ordered late May as well, but my car has finally made it to the UK. The ship, United Spirit, is on it's way now and will have quite a few Cupras on it. I hope (for your sake) that you'll get some good news soon.

Yes like the guys said don't cancel your order, i have a friend that works for Volvo and their waiting times are much longer, some as far as next April, remember if you ditch or cancel your order you have 1 of 2 options, order a in stock vehicle or buy a 2nd hand vehicle. Just wait it out, im sure you will get the cars and you will be the talk of the town.

Ordered a 1.5 TSI DSG V2 around the 20th of September from UK Carline (was a stock order they placed in May). According to their supplier, it's showing as "In transit from Factory" since last week, update earlier today still showing the same thing.

On track for a late November delivery to me, car was also build week 36 according to them.
Just heard mine in now showing as 'In transit from factory' as well :) :)

I've got some positive news from Leasing Options on my car build/delivery.

They say:
"I have received an update from the dealer and its currently showing due to them 17/12/2021. This is only an approximate due date and it may change. I will, of course, keep you updated on any changes.
Documents will be issued as soon as we have a registration number"

So I'm a bit more optimistic that something is happening in the system.
Has anyone else got some news on their Cupra Leon hatch 300 VZ3 delivery before Xmas?

Did UKCarLine give you an ETA? I have a V2 on order with them.. my build week was wk37
Unofficially could be a couple of weeks to delivery - but standard 5/6 weeks is the 'official' timings. Build date was same as yours, it was stuck waiting for chips. It's all a bit flaky from Cupra's end.
