My insurance had to be cancelled due to the gap between old and new car. I can reinstate up to 12 weeks after it lapsed and it will be as it was. 12 weeks are up on Monday, was hoping for confirmed delivery date today so I could call insurance, but surprise surprise, nothing.Just wondering what everyone does in regards to insurance? Do you insure the lease on the delivery date? Or input the vehicle details on CTM to get a quote and then buy the insurance when you know the registration?
Wow for a standard,interesting I have been offered a standard mag grey with BW 46,if you BW 47 you should have it by Dec,they told me it takes a week to build,two to 4 weeks logisticsMy local dealer placed my order on a Standard Cupra in Magnetic Grey on the 17th August and he's just come back to me with a confirmed build week of 47 so its looking like an early January delivery.
I'd originally been estimated sometime in November but January kind of works out quite well for me as the contract on my current Ibiza lasts up until Feb and it has just started telling me it needs an oil service and inspection within 29 days. It would have been kind of annoying to have to trade the car in straight away after shelling out for a major service!
I'm quite glad I thought ahead and placed an order well before my current contract was up, though. 6 months is a much longer lead time than originally estimated so I could have been stuck without a car! I remember that my current Ibiza also took around 6 months from original order to delivery so perhaps the Seat factory are a little too optimistic with their lead times in general.
I guess then, if we take week 47 as the 18th November and it takes all of that week to build. 4 weeks after that takes us to around the 20th December. Maybe the dealer is just counting in a bit of slack and doesn't want to promise anything right over Christmas. Would be a nice Christmas present if it does arrive then!Wow for a standard,interesting I have been offered a standard mag grey with BW 46,if you BW 47 you should have it by Dec,they told me it takes a week to build,two to 4 weeks logistics
Yep that is pretty much what I was told, although given everything else I expect at least another week added to that!Just got off the phone to nationwide, current dealer arrival is 4/11. He is hopeful it will actually be next week for a quick turn around on delivery. He believes I should have it delivered between 5-9/11. Let’s wait and see shall we

I just called, what a shambles. Basically the excuse is they have hundreds piled up at the port and it’s taking weeks to process them. No guarantee that the 1st November comes and it won’t magically move out another week.Me too, not holding my breath but they keep giving me that little bit of hope.
That sounds about right. It's like they suddenly had all these cars appear out of thin air that hadn't been on order for months giving them time to get organised!I just called, what a shambles.

I have a confirmed delivery to dealer on Monday. However, they’d also told me it would be there today. Which it isn’t.
Hoping for Tuesday Wednesday collection.

Fingers crossed for you! You will hopefully start the domino effect for us all. Just hoping that they won’t have a backlog on checks.
Thanks. It’s been in Grimsby for over a week. Apparently the manufacturers have flooded the uk with cars post Brexit (futile now by the looks of things) and logistics are under significant strain.
Zero communication from the stealers. All updates have been from CS initiated by me. I’ve even ended up with some goodwill from building a relationship there.

Cancelled on the 18th and didn’t get admin feee back. They tried to say I have to pay the 3% cancellation fee but I refused and then received the following email:Seems to be a few here saying they cancelled their Cupras from Leasing Options. Did you get your admin fees back?
Yeah mines currently sat there too. Glad you got some goodwill, nationwide pretty much told me to stop calling them
