When did you order, when is it arriving?

I guess it's all in the eye of the beholder, personally I don't like this car in yellow :(.
I was remarking on how much better the arches look all the same colour, rather than the colour. 😂 I you re-read you'll see I said I'd like it done in nardo grey. (y)

Sorry, I did read your thread and should have commented separately, rather than reply to you post. 👍

Hello, ordered my VZ2 310bhp 28th January and had confirmation it is now in the UK, just waiting for it to be transferred to the dealership. Hopefully collecting it within the next two weeks
I am guessing you dropped on a dealer or cancelled order to get it this quick! Well done 👍

Pretty much like me. I finally placed the order for my VZ2 on the 10th of March and I was told on Monday mine is in the UK, so hopefully a couple of weeks and I'll be able to pick it up. Apparently it was Cupra stock released to dealers, whatever that means. :ROFLMAO:

Not that I am aware of, I just went to the dealer mid-January placed the order as normal and they phoned me a week or so later to say I had a build week of week 10 and then it got pushed back to 11 but was confirmed as build early in 11. I was really surprised how quickly it was turned around after reading the forum and hearing such long lead times.

I felt the same way when I found out my car was sitting at the port from the 24th of Feb, only for it to have been delivered to the dealer on the 22nd of March.

Did you order yours with the top view cameras? Mine ordered in mid November 2021 was given build week December 2022 due to the bloody cameras. I am getting a cancelled order hopefully next Friday just without those cameras but I don`t want to get too excided until I am sat in it... I have been trying to get a new car since last April...

So today is a good day as I picked up my new Formentor. Happy to say that it has arrived with the virtual pedal but obviously without the spec'd Top View Camera (I can live without that). First impressions is that it is great and I am now working my way through all the setting etc. I will post some pictures when I get a moment and its not raining/snowing!! Had a quick play with the infotainment and all seems to work as expected. Fingers crossed it remains this way. :p Blue leather interior is lovely and the pan-roof gives a light feel to the interior.(y)

Hi, yes I did with a tow bar too. Guess I was lucky? It arrived at the dealer today and will be picking up Wednesday or Thursday next week :)

First of all I am really happy for you! But will the car actually have the cameras? Because mine ordered earlier was delayed into the eternity because of those, Gbbeesls`s was delivered without them and he ordered much earlier even than me as far as I remember and if they now all of a sudden start to deliver cars with the cameras ordered later that`s just a sick lottery!!!

Could you please check with your dealer (and which dealer that is? ) whether the car will actually have the cameras before I call mine because I feel they owe me at least a very good explanation!

Thank you in advance and once again congratulations on your new motor!

Just a note to say United Spirit has left Barcelona today, on its way to the UK, so if anyone has had there's built in the last 2 weeks, then there's might be on it!

Got a nice car from the dealership this morning, the car has officially left left the factory after being delayed from Build Week 11. Hoping it's on United Spirit. Does anyone know roughly the length of time from the ship leaving Barcelona to the car arrived in the UK/at the dealer?

Well first of all hopefully it is on the ship, like I said its on its way to Sheerness, which I would imagine would take about 5 or 6 days? My car is through Crewe, so suspect mine will be going to Grimsby perhaps, so next stop on from Sheerness hopefully by about a day or 2, not sure how long after port it would take to dealer, probably half a week? Then again depends on the dealer how long they have it to get ready for collection? Few days perhaps, I've asked to aim for the 28th just because I'm in Edinburgh the day before then will get a train down the next day (I'm based in Sussex) so it's about 200 odd miles back home!!
