Well we spoke to a Skoda dealership today, the guy reckoned he could find two 7 seater Kodiaq SE L’s and that we should be able to get it by beginning of next month. So we chase up the Vauxhall dealership and finally cancel the Frontera order (we were holding on as a safety net but now a new special needs car seat has thrown the back seat room into doubt when we’ve already proven the kodiaq doable with new seat) blind panic waiting for cancellation to go through in time to drive to the Skoda dealership before they shut at 4.30pm to pounce on the offer. We do some googling to learn we apparently can still place an order while the cancellation process is going through. So we load up and head off for the 1hr+ drive. A short while into the drive the Frontera cancellation goes through…HUZZAH! not a wasted trip! We arrive at the dealership 40mins before closing!….to be told the person we spoke has gone home, family emergency, and noone there has the contacts and expertise to locate the cars he did for us to order one “sorry”. So back to the car we trudge just in time for a thunderstorm to kick in and drown us.
Our…..luck….sucks
