With stats like those I might get the wife to let me add a second Skoda to the fleet next year

I agree. My Superb is an MY 13 and took 4 months to arrive. From build to delivery was one day short of 4 months.

The all black leather looks good. Think I d prefer the faux alloy trim panels over the piano black though. Its just too black.

Check the build dates on the plate itself, it will be a MY13 as anything in the latter half is, but it would be a record to get here and be complianced in a couple of weeks. From memory one build plate is in near the hinge on the passenger front door and there is usually a second along with the compliance plate on the right hand side where the spare tyre is (under the carpet). My guess is that they ended up getting an earlier built one for you to speed things up.

The plate under the boot floor beside the compliance plate does not have a build date on it. The plate in the front passenger door frame which is a skoda plate says Built Jan 2013.

I knew it got here quickly as I was expecting end of April. But given I wanted a manual tdi with factory leather and tint, it is not like they would have had one lying around.

I was thinking maybe it was a cancelled order, they nabbed, but interesting to know a Jan build got here so fast, hope that trend continues.

I dint get a choice with the trim. It is just what they did. Same as I couldnt get red stitching with the leather. Now that would have been nice. The black trim is more a faux carbon fibre. It has little triangles in it, so doesnt quite look like carbon fibre, but it is not straight black.

its very much possible to get here quick.

mine took 3 months from rolling out the factory floor to handing the keys into my hand.
took 3 months prior to that though, to get from order date to production date.

as u said, this looks like a cancelled order that's been nabbed :)
