Just for a Change- What is the Shortest Wait Time?

Like so many others, my car which was ordered 1 June has been delayed several times and wont be here until at least late Dec.

I just wondered who has had the shortest wait so far from order to delivery?

That's a recipe for angering people!

Well - for what it's worth, I paid a deposit at the end of April and car arrived at the dealer on Monday this week - that can't be too bad??

Arrived (5/11/11): SD4 5-door "Presnamic" Lux Very Happy Auto, Fuji, Spirit/Tan, Style 8 20" Wheels, fully loaded (bar RSE, smoker's pack and Homelink)

There's a few trhreads with this info around and you'd need to know when the order was placed as well as the deposit paid. I'm beginning to wonder what paying the deposit actually acheived...

Deposit April, Order June, Still waiting... but only a few weeks to go hopefully.

To be fair acwats, IIRC you ordered a pure no Xenons, so you probably luckily fell into the group of cars they could complete.

Interest for the dealers I guess! Then the advantage if you blow out in most cases they make more money by keeping your deposit Mad
