or it could be unregistered sitting on a compound at the moment
That's where I got told mine is, absolutely insane it's sitting anywhere given there's so little new cars coming into the UK to begin with.

Unfortunately having enquired about collecting directly from the dealership this is not possible as they are not direct representatives of ZenAuto... Which is such a shame and should've sped up the process even more. It doesn't rule out asking them once I do get word from the dealer, though.

What might happen instead is that the vehicles go directly to PDI centre's from the holding compounds, in which case they're not areas open to the public.

Exactly, of the 100 Cupra's that ZenAuto ordered, only small batches at a time are actually making their way into the country... (Said the guy on the phone to ZenAuto as I was getting my deposit taken)

So it's not like they've to deal with them all at once either!

🎉💔🎉🎊 So pleased for you. Dealer said mine would prob be end of next week due to the limited transporter movements. They used to get a full transporter every week. Apparently last delivery was 1 Formentor on a wagon full of VW vans

I get that you're excited to get your cars ASAP, but please also be mindful that we have a worker shortage and the whole car industry is a mess so it might not be as swift or smooth service as it would have been 1.5 years ago.

Show these hard working people some love, especially the ones doing all the manual work, maybe less so for those sales people who sit in their desk all day :p

I thought cupra sold themselves on a more personalized service, it seems they are no more clued in than seat.

I regret not sticking an order in a couple of weeks ago, I've had an extension till this coming April so not much wiggle room and prices shot up overnight, I'm not paying the prices quoted now.

Might be a bit screwed now 🤣

Have they fixed the wheel arch gap for the new hybrids?
The MY22 hybrids have revised suspension which sits how it should.

Here's a photo from another forum about the difference.
