Not sure if this helps to show Asphalt blue in a better way, obviously for those asking. :)

Please ignore the dirt.
sorry i cant see past the dirt... ;):D

Blue looks great, i was torn between that and Graphene Grey. (I went with the grey) Not that I have it yet, only ordered it 3 weeks ago - I need to stop coming on here looking at everyones cars, its really not helping my patience!

I know it's shocking and I do feel ashamed. :ROFLMAO:

Unfortunately I didn't have a choice, but if I did have I would've selected graphene grey so you've chosen wisely. (y)

Hello guys,

I have some positive news for people who are waiting for a car with the top view cameras. My VZ3 ordered in November was given expected build week 55 which is this December... Today however the dealer let me know that it is back to 27 which is beginning of July. Still not confirmed but there is a hope that I might get it for the end of the summer.

The M135i. :) I'd had a mini countryman JCW on order since September, but after a couple of delaysI gave up and went for an in stock VZ2. Mini then called me to say the mini had gone in to production.:ROFLMAO: We decided to stock with the VZ2 as it's more modern looking. I'm happy with most of it, just some areas feel a bit cheap.
You didn’t have the M135 long ;)

If you picked it up from Arnold Clark in Glasgow, you possibly seen my broken Graphene Grey one sitting across from the showroom doors.

Picked up from Portobello, Edinburgh. Car ordered there as when test driving in Nov 21 they were the nearest to have the auto version available. Royston only had manual version.

It was the same when I had a test drive in Glasgow, they only had a manual V1. Still took it out for a blast mind you. At the moment I’d be happy with just a car as like that Ferrari F1 driver Sainz, I’m Car-less, and fighting with Cupra and dealer to get a courtesy car despite VW roadside assistance and dealer saying I have to get a car.

Nightmare, hope you get it sorted out soon. This is my retirement car so went for the more sedate V2 ,1.5 TSI DSG

Thanks. Got gearbox issues which turned out to be a gear selector fault, and apparently a replacement is on back order which could take three weeks, so I better get a replacement car tomorrow.

That is the same model as mine.

Just spoken to the dealers (Stockport) re my order. I ordered in build week 8, and just told it's now showing to be built build week 19, and it should be with them 2-3 week after that, i.e. week 21/22.
I originally was told 8-10 weeks for delivery (i.e. delivery week 16/18), so has slipped by about 4-6 weeks so far. Hopefully there won't be any further delays :(.

V2 1.5 dsg, no other options

If anyone is waiting for a car from Seat in Southampton, I drove past there this afternoon with work and they were unloading 3 Formentors from a transporter. A red one, a black one (mine I hope), and I think the other one was grey.
