I’m another Feb order for an ST with no sign of even an unconfirmed build week as yet. ST 4drive, mystery blue with no options...
Perhaps the options that you have specified mean it has been pushed back to MY19 and therefore requires testing, whereas more basic specifications (i.e no added weight) have existing data and therefore can be built.I just received a call from SEAT explaining why I don't have a build week and thought I'd share...
Is this yet another helping of misinformation...?!
So apparently my car has flagged as a MY19 and the WLTP testing data isn't available for it.
Due to this it won't be built until after that data has been received in week 42.
I asked about other Cupra's being built and it was suggested that they may not be MY19.
"facepalm"
Obviously at this stage I couldn't ask her to confirm that the others already being built weren't MY19.
I'd have thought it would have been more reasonable to assume that a Cupra with my particular spec hadn't been tested yet, whilst other configurations had - like @Liam suggested.
That would have been easier to believe.

Mine has a large number of extras, so should mean a nice Easter present at this rate!
On the plus side... competitive rates on hair transplant, might help with all the stress of ordering a Cupra haha

But surely they're all MY19 now?!
I have specified a few options but it's only the panroof and the Beats I'd expect to be different.
The acc, winter pack and camera are minimal.
I suppose it's sum of them all that need testing.
In all this time I could have justified the buckets with the money saved - only option I regret not adding.

I feel you, I've had all this time to think and I wish id specced the audio, the pano roof and the buckets
I keep thinking I shouldn't have gone for buckets when I see how much they're costing me each month!
I've not even had a chance to sit in them. Hope they're worth it.
Personally I’m pretty happy with the basic.. although maybe the audio would be good.. piano roof doesn’t interest me and the bucket seats just take up some leg room from the back.. I don’t find them any more comfortable... but that’s just me... maybe the Kessy would have been good, but a lot of people don’t lie that.
It is 2k worth of options though
To be honest I only spec'd the roof and audio because I had both options in the S3 courtesy car last year.
The B&O showed me how much better bassy tracks could sound and the roof brightened up the cabin and made it feel bigger some how.
It had the supersport seats too, so I was looking at the buckets but I was up to 3.5k on extras. Dropped the buckets in favor of the skirts - but now it's looking like I'm getting them free.
School boy error as I could have bought the skirts at a later date.
The 280 has the standard sound system and it's very decent.

Your's is a 4xdrive though. If that was an option on the 5dr I'd have gone without the roof and audio

Our boat's just preparing to leave Grimsby for Barcelona but it's a day or two behind schedule, only gets into Barca on the evening of the 9th!

Luckily, it looks like it's not stopping at Zeebrugge on the way back, so that'll save a bit of time.!
I am in a similar position, ordered late May.
Same spec (though with rear camera too).
The last I heard from SCS was that my order had not been accepted by the factory.
My lease company have said for months it will be delivered in late November, but I am losing faith in that date...
Just been mentioned in another thread thought I’d share in case others don’t see it.

SEAT UK have today announced specification changes for the MY19 CUPRA, that will come into effect once production starts in cw42 (week-commencing 15th October):
Exterior Changes
Copper SEAT badges
Black brake calipers
Copper SEAT logo on alloy wheels
Black CUPRA flag
Black rear CUPRA lettering
Interior Changes
Copper SEAT logo on steering wheel
Interior copper and black detailing (although what this actually means is not specified)
Copper media screen logo
As I understand it, customer orders originally ordered as MY18 and then centrally-amended to MY19 that are built before cw42 will not have these changes, but those built from cw42 will.
They have also confirmed basic technical data for the 290 models (although have yet to confirm whether it will be 6spd or 7spd DSG-auto):
0-62 mph - 6.0 secs (down from 5.8 secs on 300PS)
Combined CO2 - 152 g/km (down from 158 g/km on 300PS)
Combined MPG - 42.2 (up from 40.9 on 300PS)
More details as-and-when they become available...[/QUOTE]
