interesting tactic by skoda oz - link

and while we're on exposure, Fifth Gear motoring program in the UK has just awarded the Skoda Superb Wagon as the 2010 Family Car of the Year - link

There is a pattern emerging here. An annual promotion for vehicles purchased from early December through February. If I was looking to buy at this time of year from now on I think I'd wait a little until I saw what they were giving away.

I wonder whether this is just on brand new my11 skoda's...we haven't completed full payment on our skoda coming in yet so i wonder whether we will be lucky enough to be eligible.

Based on last year you will probably be out of luck.

The sales invoice will have to be dated after a specific day and you will have to have the vehicle delivered prior to the end of Feb 2011. The whole basis for the promotion is to clear stock on dealership floors (you know the huge number of vehicles you see whenever you go into a dealership ) not to cause people to place orders.

When you see an actual ad for the promotion from Skoda read the fine print very carefully and if you qualify do two things. Keep a copy of the ad and notify your dealer that you believe you qualify in writing and ask for their confirmation in writing.

as K1W1 mentioned the fine print is where the truth lies.
below r the terms and conditions:-
- available for octavia 118tsi 7sp wagon
- available for octavia rs 147tsi 6sp liftback
- available on vehicles purchased and delivered between 18 dec 2010 and 28 feb 2011.
- not for drivers under 25 years old purchasing the octavia rs petrol turbo model.

Makes sense now why dealers have stockpiled those models...

The under 25 part is a no brainer though.
