Sorry for the delay in responding and thankyou for the update.
Ive managed to get an appointment at a local skoda dealership later day (the one who suggested I could cancel) and now feel more confident regarding the approach we should take.
I intend to order the 85 edition with the 500 additional contribution , and then await the Q4 price list… I’ll ensure to mention the option of cancelling and re-ordering if the AP drops in our favour or the 85x reduces significantly just so they are aware of our intention.
Once again thanks for your help and clear explanation – its really appreciated.
I’ll be sure to feedback on the next steps..
