[Tarracopad]

Having had a fairly good relationship with my Ateca i have finally succumb and bought a Tarraco Excellence Lux 2.0 TSi DSG i fully understand fuel economy will take a hit but just thought what the heck, Pick it up on the weekend at the end of the Month will let you know how i got on and also post some pics

LOvely, can't wait for mine. Hopefully you will enjoy it!
I test drove the 190 TSI DSG, was quite refined and relatively quick for such a big car.

Did you get delivery for yours yet?

 

[Leprechaun]

I took delivery of mine last week. There were delays with the order and the build week slipped by a few months, so I got a higher spec launch model that was in stock. Very happy with it so far and have not even had a chance to test most of the extras.

I'm confused, how can it be delayed ....when did you order initially? The car was only officially launched on the 22nd of Feb. I am assuming you are talking about a Tarraco here and not any other model.

I got build week 15 confirmed after a week of placing the order and have again been reconfirmed last week when I called Seat customer service.

Did you get it for the same price as your order or did you have to pay more for the higher spec?

 

[Leprechaun]

I pre-ordered in December and got a build week of 9. I was hoping to collect it about a week or two ago and called the dealer to see how it was progressing and when it was due to land. (1.5tsi)

He checked up the tracking and was a bit confused so contacted the factory who confirmed that it had not even gone into production yet....estimated build week went out to week 20.

I obviously let them know I wasn't happy and they offered to allow me to take one of the launch models that had just arrived. I went for the Dark Camouflage option, which was my second colour preference (in hindsight I probably should have chosen it at the start!).

The extra cost was absorbed by Seat so I did not pay any extra.

Good! NIce one. So what spec did you get in the end? DO you like the colour?

 

[Leprechaun]

Really like the colour actually. It looks like a dark grey colour when it is dull out, but you can see the green coming out when the sun hits it...but it's not too green!

The spec I have has the half leather/alcantara launch seats, panoramic roof, 20' alloys, heated seats front/rear,DAB radio, mapcare pack, safety pack, wireless charging + gsm booster....a few other bits that I need to check, but that probably come as standard.

xcellence first edition? or excellence first edition plus?

 

[Leprechaun]

We got this through an Irish dealer so it is an Irish launch model. It seems to be a combination of the two UK First Editions.

( I work in the UK and Ireland but due to company changes for Brexit, the bean counters in the head office advised it now has to paid for in Ireland)

Have finally got still working all things out but a lot of the foibles on the Ateca have been ironed out on the Tarraco and although the brochure says it has Halogen front fogs mine has LED :?:

And so far Loving it just want some goodies for it but nearly all are Not Available According to my dealer and the Seat Shop so will have to wait

Looks awesome, this is the xcellence lux spec in the UK as it is the only one with the Leather Seat so you got a nice upgrade and the pano roof as well. Well done! I thought the front fogs were halogen so thought it cheeky stating in their marketing blurb that the car is FULL LED but if it is indeed LED as well the better.
Mine's being built next week hopefully.
