Lucky. I ordered my 2.0tsi at week 13, still no build week and showing engine production problems
Oh no - what engine problems?

Have you spoken to SEAT head office? They are usually super helpful!

Engine supply .That is what my dealer told me.
Sorry - you did write that!!

Check with SEAT UK - as my dealer said they had something was delaying my order - then I found out it was the actual dealer who put the delay on! Was not happy! And now I will hopefully have my car within 16 weeks of ordering (as I found this out too late - else would have complained before!)

VW hired a Golf GTD for me today, nice car! The centre screen in this vehicle is what I have in mind for Seat. Now I grant you that the Seat is a cheaper car brand and no doubt the screen is one of the ways in which they save some money. The option to have the much plusher screen as seen in the Golf would be nice as an option though.

Placed my order on April 27th and was told 16 weeks. Had confirmation of order last week and told next update will be mid June.
Sadly my company car a Skoda Yeti goes back on 3rd July so will be carless for a couple of months.
Buying my own car with my spec so drove the Karoke and did not think it was a big improvement on the Yeti. But as soon as I got in the Ateca I was impressed and the 1.4 petrol was so much more responsive than the Yeti's 2.0 Diesel. The Ateca is also far more attractive than either Skoda.
and the only thing I will miss is the removable rear seats in the Yeti.
Ordered a digital cockpit sight unseen so hope it is worth it?
This will be my fourth SEAT (Ibiza, Leon, Altea) and I am counting days.

I have the digital cockpit, its very nice, I would be surprised if you are disappointed with it.

Hi Legod2
Gave you my scenario earlier in this post. Dealer quoted approximately 2 weeks from arrival in UK plus a couple of working days for the dealer to PDI and prepare the car etc. Was actually closer to 3 weeks by the time I was given a collection date, hope this helps ?

Hiya - yes thanks!! Ah man - don't want to wait 3 weeks lol!!! I'm so impatient 🙈

I am just wondering if anyone else has heard of this? My dealership said my Ateca will be built week 24 w/c 11 June 2018 and then it will be a further 6-7 weeks before I actually get the car? Will it really take that long to be delivered to the dealership when built?

When I placed the order in April the dealership said he would give me fortnightly updates, in 5 weeks I have only had one up date and that was because I chased them to find out what colour they actually ordered for me as they could not find Lava Blue on the order form. So I said if no Lava Blue I would have the Rhodium Grey and the salesperson said he would confirm the colour when they placed the actual order 2 days later. Took them 2 weeks to get back to me to advise me what colour they had ordered.

1.5? Wait - what?
Yep. For example in Hungary it is advertised as available from week 43
Exactly You cannot get the 1,4 anymore but for the 1,5 you need to wait 10 months!!!!!
You can still order the 1.4 engine on the UK site.
