Build week for new Cupra 290's
- Thread starter CupraRobX
- Start date
Im with freedom, when did you order? I ordered july 13th and my cars registered and probably going to be with me in a few weeks. Did you get your build number and call seat for a proper update as freedom seem to lie alot when i asked, you get a much more accurate idea direct?
I was one that accepted a full tank as 4000 miles of excess over 2 years, the additional 1.1p/mile on top of the 7.2p/mile is £44. A full tank is going to be ~£60-65 so quids in if you ask me.
Can anyone confirm how long it normally takes to get the car from the dealers? is it days or weeks? Currently car less and dealers have offered me an alternative due to mine still being "Unconfirmed" Build week (Order accepted by factory 1st August!)
Depends on the finance docs and things, I had mine 2 hours after the transporter dropped it off, others have been weeks at the dealers

Cheers, luckily all paperwork is dealt with, just need them to get the the car through docks and to the dealer who said they will prep it same day all being well
Mine arrived to DM Keiths in York on 18th October after arriving to port of tyne on Friday 14th. I signed my paperwork on 19th (not at the dealership as I'm ~300 miles away) and my 14-day cooling off period expires tomorrow 1st Nov. It gets delivered to me first thing Wednesday morning. I ordered it on July 5th...
Just been told the transport guys have been instructed today to pickup from Sheerness, hopefully not many other drop offs on route so should be with dealer next few days. They are just trying to source a loan car whilst i wait as i need one for work.
Just had an update about my order !!!
''Unfortunately we have just been updated today that Seat can no longer build your vehicle. We haven’t been given a specific reason as to why this has happened however I do know personally that Seat did cease production of the Cupra not long after your order. I understand this is inconvenient and frustrating. I have been looking into various options we have and Seat have sourced an identical vehicle for you. This vehicle is based on ‘emocion red’ paint and has the following optional extra’s added;
· Adaptive Cruise Control
· Front Assist''
On first reading this from my lease company i was thinking
no more Cupra being built at all !??!?! BUT then i phoned up and its just no more black editions being built, so i've gone for the standard Cupra 290 in red.
What are the differences between black edition and normal?

You'll get normal Cupra wheels not the upgraded ones.
Normal seats not bucket seats
No winter pack included (heated seats etc)

Ordered end of August.
Just been on the blower to confirm the order... and it IS the black edition. That email he sent first was just to say i couldnt get it in Alor blue!!! But it sounded like the car couldn't be built at all! So ive got front assist and adaptive cruise control for nout! Not all bad in the end! Just a bit of mis-communication.
4-6 weeks now for delivery, already waited 8 weeks.

Thats good, my original order was alor blue and ive been offered Monsoon Grey which to be fair i quite like plus a 'token gesture' from Seat for the delay and trouble which makes the wait more bearable

Order went in end of July and accepted by the factory on the 1st august so i would probably expect yours to be cancelled as well, probably best to chase the dealer/lease co tomorrow
