I ordered a V2 1.5 DSG with the Beats option direct from Cupra on 15/10/2021. I’ve been given BW 3 (Jan 17th - 21st). How long do you think it’ll take till I’m behind the wheel?

I’ve been given a rough estimate of end of Feb/early March, so just wondering how it’s been for everyone else who has received their car.
My build week was the 13th September and I picked up my car from the dealer on 1st December, so going on my time scale I would say you should get your car towards the end of March.

Ordered mid October 2021
Formentor V2 TSI Petrol 150 6-speed manual, Graphine Grey, Black Nappa Leather, Virtual Pedal / Elec Tailgate.
Dealership saying they don't have any idea of build week - looking at delivery May / June! Really, really hoping it's sooner than that. Any chance?

Similar timelines to me. Ordered 27/10/21 and forecast May/June with no current updates available.

Hoping from the sound of other orders that this could come forward if things go well! We're on the order journey together by the look of it!

Without trying to sound like I'm peeing on your chips, I think you can probably expect a summer delivery. Fwiw, I ordered my VZ2 in June, and was told just before Christmas that my car had been given a build week of 5 and should expect delivery late March...

Have they given you a delivery date at all mate?

Not yet mate. All they disclosed was the registration number in preparation for when the car arrives it can be delivered straight away. I guess its just waiting for the paperwork from NVC to sign and send back now.

My car ordered in March 2021 will enter production next week! Hopefully, I'll get it in March! 1 year of waiting for a new car...Jesus! 😌

Thanks - it does indeed sound like we’re in it together. I’m not sure I have the patience! 🙈

Disappointing but always helps to be realistic. Thanks for your thoughts. I shall remain ever the optimist.

Stay optimistic, I ordered a VZ3 with added options in July and picked it up in December. There doesn’t seem to be much of a logical order to production regarding order dates so you may not wait as long as others.

@MrBiggles87, spoke to my dealer today and he has told me my car will be with them Monday/Tuesday, and I should have it to pick up on ThursdayFriday. Finally it’s nearly here🎉🎉

Amazing! Congratulations bud, I am hopeful that mine will arrive on the same/similar day, then sign the paperwork and arrange delivery.

I better go and get on first named terms with the local fuel station ;)

Thanks, and likewise about the fuel. I’m definitely going to run mine on premium instead of the E10 stuff. What about you?

I placed an order for a VZ2 Hybrid at the start of July 2021. The estimate for delivery back then was 28th of January but that's probably because I asked if I could take delivery towards the end of January to coincide with my previous lease ending. It sounds like people who have put in VZ2 Hybrid orders have been getting their deliveries all around now, so I'm hopeful the dealers will have some good news for me in the coming week! I'll come back with more news when I have it.

I still think the Formentor is a rare car to see on the roads - in terms of sightings "out in the wild", I see an average of about 1 a week at the moment, so they're still incredibly rare sightings, which makes me feel like I'm going to be getting something very special when it does turn up!

Yeah, they are rare beasts, but where I live there are two Formentors – a VZ2 310 and VZ2 Hybrid (both on the same road. Really thought I'd be the first one in my housing estate to own one. Anyway, I don't care, I just want it on my drive.

Yeah I think so! The good thing about my situation is that I have a young toddler who used to ONLY nap in the car... so I used to drive around for an hour every day... I used to fill up my current car every week. So I reckon, now that he has dropped his daytime nap, I will spend LESS time at the fuel station!

I did an 80 odd mile journey yesterday in mine and seen three others on the road (silver and two black). All were on the opposite side of the road, so couldn't tell what models they were, but my first decent run since getting mine and couldn't believe seen so many despite hardly seeing any on usual commute.
