Four weeks is typical from build to delivery but it can vary depending on what else is waiting to be shipped to the UK and how busy the port(s) and ship(s) are.
However long you wait it will feel longer...

Re: Karoq front seat
Andy, I can't say that I have had any issues with the seat adjustments in my car, but we may be very different shapes :) If you are struggling with getting the right balance of settings for you I would suggest that you go right back to basics. There is loads of advice on setting car seats on the web...

Re: Worth the wait - I hope
I think you will find the Karoq quite a change from the Mercedes. My neighbour had a B180 (retired it when the gearbox blew up at just shy of 1100K miles). After a short stint with a Hyundai i20 he saw my karoq and had a wander round it and we will soon have two Karoqs living side by side. (He was g...

Re: Thinking of buying a Karoq
[Off topic] I know Watchet, my grandfather was the Methodist minister there for some years. I was astonished by how gentrified the harbour area is when I visited a couple of years ago after a gap of more than 35 years. Taunton was where my father was a GP for a few years, though I do not remember it...

Re: MPG on 1.5 petrol SEL
To be fair it was the trip computer but with an 8 gallon tank you know when it's drinking it and we covered 250 miles on just under 3/4 of a tank indicated by the gauge. Don't thinks it's a million miles off. Assuming the gauge is linear and accurate (both brave assumptions!) that would be 250 mile...

Re: Thinking of buying a Karoq
Hi Alan, Always good to "meet" someone from the county God made after a few practice runs; Somerset, county of my birth :) . Sadly, I was forced by economics to migrate up the M5 / M4 and so cannot give any guidance about the dealers in your area. I have the 1.5TSi with a DSG box and have ...

Re: Thinking of buying a Karoq
I suspect that most Karoq owners will have had little contact with dealers yet unless they managed to buy a lemon. Some folks seem to be getting a bit of a run around over delivery dates thought whether that is due to the dealers, Skoda or the revised rules regarding fuel economy / emissions testing...

Re: new member
Hi and welcome to our corner of cyberspace.
Feel free to tell us as much or as little about yourself as you wish, some idea of your previous cars and how the Karoq compares is always interesting.
Have fun,
Ian.

Re: Cd/dvd
CD? How quaint
Once you have put a few hundred albums on a card you will wonder how you ever managed all those CD cases rattling around in the car. I am not a fan of tech for tech's sake but the switch to memory card from CDs was a huge improvement.
Have fun,
Ian.

Re: tablet holders
Not unless you ordered them. They are a £50 option according to the configurator on the Skoda website. I don't know how much they are to purchase aftermarket but before committing to buy them through your dealer have a look at the Superskoda website or even ebay.
Have fun,
Ian.
