due to pano and manual gearbox. will post with there reply.

I feel the same, my gripe is not with the owners but the system, hence my having gone to ground for several days, the whole thing really sucks at the mo.

RE: Yet More Delays

Whilst we're all pent up and full of energy... I heard back today that I missed the allocation for Jan, (and therefore miss the original March delivery).
I am now number '3' on the pool list (was number 27 when ordered) so (technically) am in on the february call for expected April delivery.

RE: Yet More Delays

Spoke to my dealer this morning and they confirmend that there are some delays
due to pano roof and manual gearboxes. They also assured me that if you have
been given a build date then these delays will not affect you and that most of there
orders are coming in on time or slightly earlier. Good news in my book but I have
asked conformation for that in an email so I can use it against them for freebies
if my order is late.

Cheers
Chris

My sales guy is my old friend and I can't think he's bulls****ing me. The only common thing for the delayed cars is the manual gearbox. Of course it is the view of one dealer from the very marginal markets:Surprised.

I am orientated to get my car before winter 2012/13. Can't take more stress out of this anymore.
