I'm off to my dealer tomorrow to finalise as the decided to close on Saturday.

Order was made in September, spec confirmed early October.

Similar to me then as I ordered on the 1st of October for 1st of March delivery & have heard nothing other than when I have rang the dealer just to ask if there were any issues plus alter spec but they told me all seems ok so I will wait"n"see.

RE: January Order Calling (Dealer Allocations)

My deposit was paid in mid-August and I've been sat in the holding pool since.

The last update that I had, that was of any use, was that I was 17th in their holding pool at the end of October so I'm fully expecting to hear some good news soon.

If not I'll be asking for a full explanation as I was originally told to expect delivery in December, then it was moved to January once my deposit was placed.

RE: January Order Calling (Dealer Allocations)

Received an email from my dealer today with an estimated build date of 3-5th February. He will be in touch again in about a week with a firm build date. Smile

Could I have views as to whether I should delay collection until March from a financial perspective (not bothered about the plate). Even though I can't wait to get the car, if a March registration makes a big difference I would be silly to take delivery in Feb.

I'd definitely wait. Mine arrives at the dealer at the end of January and I don't intend to collect it until March 1st. Delayed gratification and all that.
