This is a discussion on How long from order to delivery? within the Octavia II forums, part of the Skoda Model Discussion Area category; What is the average time from order to delivery, or is it very much model dependent? Thanks....

| Briskodian | Re: How long from order to delivery? It's going to depend on how far you delve into the options list. You would need to speak to a dealer. My factory order arrived at the dealer today which I think is about 7 weeks after the order was placed. |

| Go Gadget Octy! | Re: How long from order to delivery? Mine will be 10 weeks when collected tomorrow. Thats with quite a few options. Some options have longer lead times than others. |

| Re: How long from order to delivery? I am hoping to order a new L&K so on the one hand it is fully loaded, but they are standard and not options.... I could be lucky and get one already in stock but then with my luck probably not!!! |

| Re: How long from order to delivery? Watch out for some old model L&K's that might be lurking in the system. I've opted for sunset glass to avoid that happening. It's one of only 4 options available now. (Front PDC, sunroof and sat nav are the others)

| Re: How long from order to delivery? I did think about the front sensors as the only option I would consider. I presume you had a test drive before you ordered or are you a life-long Octavia owner? How are the 17" wheels on the L&K (if you know!)? |

| Re: How long from order to delivery? The L&K i've "ordered" is a company car, my current car is an Elegance so I know roughly what I am letting myself in for. It will be my 3rd Octavia (1 Mk1 and 2nd MkII) in 2 years.

  If you need front parking sensors, you either need glasses or a test re-sit!  LOL, there are plenty of better options for the cash.... | |

| Briskodian | Re: How long from order to delivery? They said, that my car will be produced in 16th week. Mayby you get your car in end of April they said. Car was ordered in March 28. As I was told, they changed one car that the dealership had orderd themselves. Otherwise I should wait 2 months. I give up the ESP. Who needs it anyway? At least I have the megagigaecoestateskoda  1,9 TDILast edited by PsychoDad; 14-04-2007 at 12:47. |

| Re: How long from order to delivery? I have been told 10-12 weeks for my L&K with sunset glass by the lease company  They said they have 8 siler L&K's in thier stock and you can bet they are the old spec L&K so my response was..................... "no, I'll wait 3 months thanks"

| Re: How long from order to delivery? Yes, there were 2 available. But with the L&K what option would I want-its a nice spec car! Can't wait now! The other colour available was yours - anthracite which I like but the wife was set on black. Who is doing all the cleaning though? Yep, me!
