And my dealer emailed again today, confirming that my car is still scheduled to be built next week.

I'm not pinning all hopes on it, as I know it is subject to so many factors. But it was a nice email to get.

I’m in the same situation that my car should be built next week. Let’s cross our fingers because I read that Skoda are going to "significantly reduce or even halt production from Oct. 18 until the end of the year” so they can focus on the backlog.

/\ I’ve never been to a Skoda plant but I’ve been to the Porsche production line in Leipzig and a few JLR plants over here (work related) and they make LHD and RHD cars together.

Goaty, I've been following your posts as like you my car was due wc 6th March and was at Port the same day as you.
The difference is you seem to get better feedback about the status than I do!
My dad ordered enyaq 5 days before mine and only difference was his was metallic grey and mine is race blue. He has had his for 7 weeks and I'm still waiting! So any news, I can't wait to hear.
Away back when I ordered I thought it would be this week and with kids off for school holidays thought that would be nice to go and get car and gonout for lunch or dinner though thinking more month end now.

Cheers and keep posting!

/\ I think you might have confused me for someone else 🤣.

Probably hasn’t helped that I’ve changed my forum name once or twice 😜

Mine was ordered end of May and is due later this month. They started making it from 6th Sept though.

Indeed my dealership has kept me well informed (when I ask them) but I don’t think I’ll name them in case others here are having a hard time getting updates from the same dealership!! We get a lot of cars from them, albeit through our fleet company - so I think they are eager to please 😆

Mine was ordered the last Thursday in May with a build date of wc 6th Sep also. My dad's was ordered the Saturday before me was built on Wed the 14th July and was here around 20th of August.

My dealership said show some patience! I have asked twice for an update. Patience!

Hello all

I’m just waiting for delivery with little information coming in from Skoda
For the last few days I keep being told that the delivery checking system is down
Car ordered 29th June
Build week 32 (10th August)
I believe now sitting awaiting microchips
On the positive side I am still very excited about getting my new car, however long it takes to get to me I know it will be well worth the wait
