Be patient. I was waiting for 4 months!!!

Was it your spec that delayed it
I’ve ordered a FR Sport with pan roof and parking sensors (which would be full spec in uk)

It wasn't my spec. As dealer said every Ibiza here takes 3 to 4 months to be delivered.

It takes at least 12 weeks, 14 for a FR Sport - from dealer placing order to collection.

I ordered a few days over 14 weeks ago, finally collecting today. Factory order was initially provisional then a confirmed build week after about 4-5 weeks.

Mine took ages to get to collection (ordered in October, collected March!) but it’s well worth the wait!

Any pics ?(granted you may have posted already) I ordered mine in magnetic grey and the blue in the grey sold it for me when I saw one in the showroom

I assume yours is the 1.0 lump how so it?
From my test drive it was smoother than my 1.2

I have the same. I will get a picture of it in good lighting... The grey is really lovely, like a Graphite kind of colour. Seeing lots of people going "oooh, ahh" at it. HAHAHA.

It’s exciting picking up your new car I’ve had mine almost 5 months now and nearly done 4000 miles and it’s better to drive now as it’s loosened up a bit. I’ve got the 115ps car and have averaged 45mpg, most of my driving is in town with 20mph speed limits and a lot of stop starting so I’m pleased with it. It is quick enough on motorways and picks up speed well in 3rd & 4th gears pulling hard all the way to the red line.

Mine's definitely improved over time too! I absolutely love it. The interior feels so nice for what is really quite a cheap car, especially the seats. The tech on the Xcellence Lux too is on point. My long-term average is around 51 mpg right now, but that's with a fair bit of motorway with my commuting to my new job.

Collecting the car on Sunday morning - really looking forward to it. Went for the FR Sport 115 - the FR styling swung it for me, although the extra toys on the Xcellence Lux did have me sat on the fence for a while.
I'll be mostly driving it around town so if I can achieve similar economy to you guys I'll be more than happy. Did you notice the economy improve as your cars loosened up a bit?

I also prefer the look of the FR Sport but wanted the extra kit that comes with the Xcelence Lux so compromised by having the FR Sport’s rear diffuser and fake exhausts. I’m sure you will enjoy your car when you collect it on Sunday.

Just collected my Ibiza FR Sport.
Liking it a lot!
One surprise for me was the roof lining being dark grey thought it was going to be cream, which I’m happy about lol!

How did you all go about getting your Ibizas? I'm looking at getting one on PCP - not sure whether to go through a dealer, carwow or one avilable immediately listed on autotrader. What is the wait time for an Xcellence Lux atm?
