    Columbus and bluetooth were standard on my vRS...

    The options available for the MY12 vRS are:
    AFS Xenons
    Leather
    Sun roof
    Front park sensors
    Cornering fogs (free via VCDS)
    Alarm w/ interior monitoring
    MDI
    Privacy glass (Window tinting not including front windows)
    Metallic paint

    Taken straight from the brochure.
    The only option mine's got specced is the metallic blue paint.
    2012 Octavia vRS TDI. Darkside big turbo, 3bar tune, other stuff. 200kW/650Nm.
    1990 Mk1 Cabrio. 1.9 IDI w/ 18PSI.
    1985 Mazda T3500 adventuremobile. 1973 Superbug. 1972 Volvo 144 in poo-brown.
    Not including hers...

This means there will be no MY 13 Scouts of the current shape. Quite different from what you are being told so it will be interesting to see where the truth lies.
    Well got a call today and was told that there are only two cars of my colour coming, one had front sensors and one had mdi...

    Why would they be on the ship with accessories already? I think they just found a few locally so what you said makes sense.. I can't take delivery until mid December so I guess it makes no difference either way to me...

    Congratulations on your new car. Couldn't be happier with mine which we picked up in November last year. We've done 25K in it since then (!) and it still looks, drives and feels new.

    Had a bit of a similar experience - I wanted them to throw bluetooth into the deal when I ordered, and the dealer rang me a few days later to say that it was standard in the MY 12 models. No one was too sure about it before that.

    OK all makes sense, there may not yet be an MY13...

    They sent me a new contract to sign showing the MDI option included now, and I just noticed it no longer has MY13 on it, they have changed it to MY12..

    Guess there is no MY13 model until the new version/body comes along... Funny they could have just admitted the mistake...

    All good I only went to buy the 2012 model anyway.. LOL

    I was going to say there probably isn't a MY13, although anything built after July usually is teh MYnextyear anyway.
