Not sure about the Scout. The new Skoda Superb Outdoor 4x4 is already here. It's around 55k for DSG, don't know about spec.
Walking Contradiction...
MY15 Skoda Octavia vRS 162 Race Blue Combi
Picked up my new Octavia RS today. Al l I can say is WOW!!!
Scout is expected in April 2015. Pricing has not been announced as far as I know.
2014 Skoda Ambition Plus 103TSI candy white wagon, 6sp Manual, Tech pack, Panoramic Sunroof, 18's, Colour Maxidot, Comfort BT
Ordered 07 May 14 (Wk 15), Built Wk 37, Loaded 27/9 (wk 39), Docked 12/11 (wk 46), DELIVERED! 12/12 (end of wk 50 - 7 months + 1 week).
I'm worried about delivery times. I'm due back sometime around the end of May/early June but if I wait till I'm home before putting in the order then it could be months away. And then have to juggle spending cash on a runabout and swap over.
Oh well, patience is a virtue (apparently, never noticed myself).

I was waiting for the Scout too but decided to pull the pin with new baby due in late Feb. Salesman iffy about April, but press seem to be thinking April.
Skoda Octavia Scout : Czech crossover arrives in April 2015 with first-time petrol option
I'm about to pick up a new Superb Ambition wagon at a good price - I just can't go past the size and value. I thought about an Elegance as they are loaded with kit, but I don't drive the VRS anymore - its become the family hauler, possibly a little bit selfish there.
Means I have a 2010 VRS DSG wagon up for sale next month if anyone is interested.
Interesing that AU will get a petrol option for the Scout but in the UK where the petrol was an option in the MK2 they appear to only have diesels available now.
Price seems hefty at GBP25k which is more than a vRS. Add all the options available in the UK & it comes to GBP38500!!! LOL

My unicorn has arrived... After a few confabulations, it was delivered right on the first estimate I was given (early-Dec) when I ordered (mid-June). So far, so awesome....
