RE: Xenon delays

Again nothing personal Ali but really annoying if some dealers are 'cherry picking' customers and orders especially those who've previously bought from them or buying two cars together. Just picking up on your dealer saying he's got orders in the system and he's specced one for you.

Been to dealer today, he checked the system and advised that the date has been brought forward to November 17th. He said that they already had orders in the system and they have specced one of those for me!?!

I asked about any potential problems re xenons, he smiled (as he already suspects I am a 'mystery shopper' as I seem to know more than he does about whats going on thanks to this forum) but he said that it will not effect my order......

I hope he is telling the truth and/or is well informed, only time will tell........

If the November delivery date turns into a reality I will be delighted to say the least......

Only the Pure models are affected by the Xenon problem

RE: Xenon delays

@wicksy - "only pures are affected" - that's part of my point, having had deposit on for over year - I should get my pure with xenons before alibeau gets her prestige. Model should be irrelevant.

Sorry b4 Ali gets her dynamic.

Pure 3dr SD4 Tech Man ; Firenze Red ; 19" Style 3 ; Pano ; Ebony / Ivory Int ; Auto dim rear view ; 2 seats ; Park Aid - Rear cam ; Ext. folding mirrors ; Adap Xenon ; Fogs ; Mud Flaps ; Side Steps - Rec'd 28/12/11 - Sadly going 6/6/14 - Gone, now running BMW X6

Yes, I understand that - but in her post she mentions that she has ordered a Dynamic and says her order is unaffected by the Xenon issue - that's why I pointed out that this only applies to PuresConfused

RE: Xenon delays

For what it's worth, I've ordered a TD4 Dynamic and was told yesterday that my build was complete even though my build sheet gives 18 October as the complete date.

Good that you have got your date brought forward but the Dynamic isn't affected by the Xenon problem in any case - its only us poor souls who have ordered the Pure that are going to be well and truly peed offMad

RE: Xenon delays

Dynamics are affected by the zenons, i have 2 cars on order a coupe and a 5 door and up to now only the coupe is affected but dates are constantly changing daily for both cars.

That said the coupe is affected a lot more than the 5 door.
