Happy rides! In my VZ the demisting is quite good, it takes a couple of minutes the most and then it demists in notime at all, as for the lane assist and start/stop function I deactivate them as soon as I start the car and everytime I restart.
I ordered a V2 with pan roof which meant I had to pay extra for the black headlining. After I placed my order Cupra changed the spec for V2 model to include black headlining, but I never got a refund on the extra I had paid. I got a good discount on the original list price so not too fussed, but just to respond to your comment about the manufacturer not reducing the price for changes in spec.@Baron; That’s an interesting situation you’ve been placed in. I’ve no experience of buying a brand new Cupra or Seat, but my experience with VW is that historically, if there are any changes (upgrades) to spec, then customers with existing orders waiting for their cars to be built just get the benefit of those changes when their car is built without being asked to pay extra.
I wonder whether Cupra/ Seat would reduce the price of a customer’s car if they reduced the spec of a customer’s car? Will all those owners whose cars were delivered without an engine cover get a refund if the cover is never supplied? I very much doubt it.
Edit; it’d be worth checking the small print in the T&C’s on your original order form to see whether there’s an item covering manufacturer-initiated changes in vehicle spec and whether it gives Cupra the right to make an adjustment to the contractually agreed price you signed up to.
Well I’d be saying erm no chance, you will be entitled to your deposit back as they have changed the terms.
Do you not have a contract of sale and purchase to cover this? I live in Portugal and my deal was fixed from signature.
They have the right to change spec as long as they let you know, but price increases are not covered by that. They have to tell you and give you the option to agree or disagree so you are entitled to a refund.
That is absolutely disgusting and unprofessional behaviour and I'd be visiting the dealer showroom and letting everyone in there, customers and staff, know what sort of business they run.
My V2 standard was built mid October but has been stuck in production ever since. Dealer says it's status is still stuck in production.
I was given a original delivery date of December but as it's a 6 week delivery wait to the UK so looks like March at the earliest if and when it finally leaves production.

Ordered VZ2 310 DSG early April 22 - arrived today!
And its awesome!

Unfortunately if there is no contract there is nothing to bind them and they would have to absorb the increase themselves and may end up turning a loss.
Picking up my VZe (PHEV) tomorrow after nearly 14 months (!). Got a good discount on the vehicle when I signed the contract , plus a now discontinued hefty Government subsidy. With CUPRA increasing sticker price by around €5000, i'm driving out with a car that is woth 60% more then when ordered. All in all, hopefully well worth the wait!
V2 1.5 finally built and has left the factory, was told a couple of weeks until I finally receive it!
Ordered back in May 2022 btw.

Me too order for a v2 on 2nd May 2022! build week 39 at end of sep allocated, finally arrived at a uk dock last week, won't be ready until feb/march
RJP have you heard anything yet?Good luck, This will be a gauge for everyone with similar spec.
Mine has gone into build (last week), apparently. Lease company said there won't be any further update until the factory release the vehicle! I'll update when it leaves the factory. Not sure how long that will take, but almost 2 weeks in build so far.
