Two words 'it better'. I've been amazingly calm through this ordeal, but I would lose my **** if the car got wrecked now.....
It won't be an issue for us day to day, car will be in garage (we can walk to train for work it's only a few mins away) and both myself and the wife are savvy enough to use weather radar and discretion when our and about - never had a car damaged by hail yet.
Good luck with things GTR. Sounds like GCS are doing a great job.
Went to see my dealer the other day and the best he can offer is to sell me a trade in at the the trade in price and buy the car back off me when my car arrives (at the sale price). I would have to pay for rego transfer etc in that time..... Dealer is avoiding my emails and calls. Patience has just about run out.
The worst part is, from speaking with Skoda, each dealer is allocated a certain number of cars. Once they sell their allotment, that's it for the year. The number of cars coming into the country is restricted, and each car is coded to a specific dealer, and its very difficult for dealers to share cars (and most dont want to because they know they have a rare commodity).
Was your car manual or auto daMama? Is it possible to call up dealers around you (all of sydney too) and see if any of them have a "like" car in stock? You may not get it as cheap, but at least you'll get it quicker. Has your "new" one been given a build date yet?
If this is true, no wonder they struggle with their dealers. There is no incentive for a dealer to excel in customer service to build sales - they can sell their quota just by being mediocre.Quote:

Woohoo, only rain no hail, car is safe for another week. Got a call from Skoda finally. Telling me what the dealer has organised. They also said they would organise 'something' for staying with the order. We will see, I just want the car.
That crazy that I'm seeing more Porsche Macan on the road in Melbourne than MK3 RS.Quote:
