A picture is worth a thousand words, so let's start with some:
Car ordered at the end of December 2016, delivered at the end of May 2017, picked up in early June 2017. I have not experienced any problems that I had the opportunity to read on this forum. Waiting time just as expected. The dealer was very sincere in this matter; he said that based on the experience of the previous highly anticipated Skoda models, e.g. Yeti and Superb, the estimated delivery time would be about 6 months, so I should get it before the summer holidays and so it happened. So I waited [un]patiently...
While waiting, I had plenty of time to read the entire instruction manual, watch all possible tests and reviews and gather all the necessary car cosmetics to appease my OCD [Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder], should the time come.
When the day came, I quickly picked up the car, drove home, and got into a 3-day car detailing frenzy of washing [Meguiar's NXT Generation Car Wash], drying [Monster Shine Fluffy Dryer], decontamination [CarPro IronX], degreasing [CarPro Eraser], taping [Aqua Dynamic Masking Tape], waxing [Meguiar's Ultimate Liquid Wax] and applying various coatings: on glass [Soft99 Ultra Glaco], on alu rims [CarPro Cquartz DLUX], on plastic trim [Koch Nano Magic Plast Care].
The outcome is truly rewarding. The car not only looks stunning but is so much easier to wash now. The dust, bugs, road grime, bird's poop and brake pad dust do not stick so much to the treated surface and power wash removes most of it in a single splash. Hydrophobic coating on windshield makes the use of wipers redundant while driving, helps to prevent water spots and makes deicing easier in winter time.
