Mine took a week from landing in Melbourne.
Does the skoda factory have a two week shutdown in august? I have found a few readings that seem to indicate exactly that......wondering if anyone could confirm. Man it's balls having to wait this long for a car.
they shutdown for a month in july, every year.
during this time they service & maintain the factory robots, paint shops, body shops etc etc. production/assembly is halted during this time.
this also signifies the change over from MY14 to MY15, for example, or MY12 to MY13, etc etc.
But people have July build weeks?!? I can understand shutting down for maintenance etc just wondered when.
My MY15 RS Octavia was built two Thursdays ago.. So MY15 models still built before the July/Aug break..
I think different factories have different shutdowns. I have been wondering about the MY15s built before the shutdown. I would hazard a guess and say they may be MY14 but with the tech packs rather than MY15.
I dont think so - guys on briskoda already have theirs flat bottom wheel (vrs models) and modified cup holders in the rear and all!
Flat bottom steering wheel is what i have and was advised tis MY15 spec.
My Octavia is at a port in Belgium.... now waiting to hear it leave and get ship details. To Cape Town then Fremantle.
Hmmm, maintenance shutdown may explain a few things ....
My dealer informed me that my car was about to be built when it 's status changed fro "Frozen" to blank. It's been this status for a week and a bit now until today as the dealer just informed me that its being built next Tuesday 29th July. So ... for anyone else who has been waiting a long time for MY15 Tech pack cars, check with your dealer as he may hopefully now have good news for you.:)
