Hey Guest👍👎 We're looking for reviews of your local CUPRA or SEAT Dealership - it's quick and easy to do: Leave a review now
Just been speaking to the dealer about the delivery of my Cupra tomorrow and he reckons if I ordered one now I would be looking at build week 49 which is December... Sounds like I fell lucky.
SEAT normally reckon around 12 weeks for a factory build. At least you'll get it as a 57 reg. Probably better it coming in mid Septmber and beating the 1st September rust, meaning they are longer to PDI and prepare your car properly.

My new candy cupra
should be ready for the 1st september, they expect it to arrive sometime in august, factory closures permitting, so if it does come early, they're gonna do all the pdi stuff before the rush, just leaving the wash till last. mind, i've heard a rumour that they're only closing the factory for 2 weeks now instead of the original 4, so we may all have a pleasent suprise.
I know its not an FR, but was ordered begining of june, and thought it might be a good yardstick for timings.

Sounds almost exactly the same as my FR order, car was ordered begining of June, the dealer says it is being built next week and they will get it around the 20th August for collection on the 3rd of Sep as a 57 plate. Ive just sold my Fabia VRS so it cant come too soon!!!!
build week 28 for me, which i believe is this week! but my eyes are a bit funny at the moment and i may not be reading the calender right.
Hopfully the spaniards wont get too sloppy just before the big holiday, I don't want a friday job!

Same as me, I ordered mine at the start of June and have been told first week in NOV!!!!

Guys, unfortunately I think it first week in Nov may be true. The dealer I got my car from on Saturday reckons a Cupra would now be build week 49, so maybe the FR is also suffering delays.
My car got delayed and at that time the manager stated that I would be looking at 12 to 16 weeks for a build to order, if I didn't go with the order I had already placed.

OHI wonder what the problem is? I hope mine isnt delayed as fingers crossed mine goes tomorrow and I couldnt cope for 3 months without a car
My Candy White FR with a few other bits was ordered in the first couple of weeks of May. Build week 27 - am waiting for confirmation it now exists, but expected delivery was Sept 3rd.
This allowed for the importing and the fact that anything arriving during August they didn't wish to deliver on 07 plate.
Seems a long time, but over half way there now........

I ordered my leon today, Fr tdi in Luna grey, Zeons, 18" alloys and the Tom Tom ready wiring. Not got a clue as yet when its gonna come, after reading this looks like I will have a seriously long wait
Ditto, I ordered my Candy FR today with Bluetooth, iPod Prep and 18's
I think the SEAT business model is that generally they build a batch of cars for delivery over the next few months to put in a stock pool. But not in the sense that other manufacturers do, where they are left for years. (Leon Cupra's are an exception to this and are generally build to order).
As far as I know they generally do a range of colours for each model but not options. If you look at the back of the brochure it says any options apart from metallic paint will mean the car is subject to a 12 week minimum delivery time.
I was told when I ordered my Cupra that I could have had an FR almost immediately, as there are plenty already built ready to be registered.
A dealer will also try to get one from another dealer by doing a swop rather than put a new build order through.
