Originally posted by Whorty View PostSeems reasonable to me. Why should Porsche take the hit? Maybe SEAT are expecting to have your new car in the UK pre 29th March and hence there will be no tariff to pay should we crash out.
It will be interesting to know how many buyers just suck it up because they want a Porsche. Maybe this is what Porsche are banking on.Comment

Originally posted by Yorkie62 View PostWhy shouldn't Porsche take the hit? If they were that worried perhaps they should have informed their customers earlier at the point of sale. The normal lead time on any factory built car is 12 weeks therefore any car ordered after 4th Jan is likely to be delivered after 29th March. Nothing wrt to Brexit has substantially changed since the 4th Jan.

We knew this would happen if we crashed out. Shouldn't really be a shock to anyone should it? Not sure why you're getting het up about it ... this is what you voted for. Enjoy your victoryI am what I drink, and I'm a bitter manComment

But now, like the rest of the world, our government is being seen for what it is, incompetent and full of lies.

Originally posted by Yorkie62 View PostIt's not UK stock, as it is a factory build due to the options to be fitted (Comfort and Sound packs + towbar is a factory fit) and it is coming from the SEAT factory in Spain as its not a Skoda. The UK dealer doesn't don't have a chassis number yet so I guess its early days in production.

PRODUCTION AND QUALITYThe industrialisation and production of the Ateca have put the small Czech town of Kvasiny and its 1,500 inhabitants on SEAT’s map. Its factory has been producing cars since 1934 and in 1947, the first ŠKODA vehicle left its production line.
The Quality division’s goal is to ensure quality in the manufacturing processes and to guarantee that the quality of all parts of the Ateca is perfect.
To this end, it subjects SEAT’s new model to an exhaustive examination to test its quality, even in the finest detail.
...and some are now made in Algeria...
