Default Replacement parts from Sweden

Following my misjudged pavement incident in November I've been told my 2018 V60 needs a new front strut, which is coming from Sweden.

Anyone know how long it takes? I'm suffering in the garage's 59hp Skoda Labia at the moment and have 1500 miles to do over the Christmas period. They ordered the part last Tuesday.

As I understand it, they ship products over on a daily basis, so it could be just a day or two if it's in stock. If it's on back order then how long is a piece of string...? Could be anything from a few days to months; I needed a new set of keyed locks (supplying dealer lost the key blades so had to get all the locks swapped out) and these were on back order for about a month..

If you ask the dealer they should be able to request an estimated arrival date from Sweden for you.

Better that than a Labia Skabia.
