Got a call from the dealer today, my RS has been built and is en route to AUS on the boat. ETA 22nd July, weather permitting.

Tracking the boat begins!

Good news. When does the boat leave and when was it built?

Oh so the handful that got loaded 12th June? Gosh took them a while to let you know!

Boat left Germany 12th June, currently sailing from Durban. Order was placed end of March and build completed June.

Yes, one of the handful. My dealer is really proactive that way (NOT) I guess . Either way no complaints, when I placed the order he told me to expect delivery mid August. There is almost a 10-12 month waiting on new orders placed now.

He also mentioned something about Skoda moving to electronic service logging as opposed to the use of service books.

They do that electronic service loggin in the UK as well, but I think you'll find that due to australian consumer laws, they would have to provide a paper service book so you can get it stamped/certified at an independant.

EDIT: congrats on the news! Not long now then and you'll be in your sweet ride!

Hmm, I thought the MY for Octavia's started after the summer shutdown and especially the tech pack was for July builds (my15). May seems too early.

Thanks mate! Anxiously waiting...

I think my biggest two fears are it arriving here, and someone at the docks crashing it or something stupid like that. Or even worse, taking delivery, then having an accident that writes the car off.....

I mean, i've never written a car off before, and havent had any accidents but still......dont want to make a first on either account.
