All the cars used in the launch events were prestige or dynamic.
All the cars used in magazines or promotional literature were prestige or dynamic
Now a so called shortage of xenons only effects the pure model
Already a few people on this forum have changed from pures to prestige or dynamics - think it may be working
Conspiracy theory??........Cool

Wink Doubt it's a conspiracy theory, if you were giving your new car design it's first public airing, you'd want people to be wowed by the top spec's to get the best reviews... just plain marketing. They probably just underestimated the demand for xenon's or got hit by teething problems with a supplier, gonna happen.

It is also on Prestige models, my vehicle has been held up two weeks due to problems with Xenon's, came off production last Friday, should have gone into build on the 9th Sept,
will be at the dealers the week, so things are moving Very Happy

They did a damn good job of marketing such a good product and now all they need to do is communicate with us,then there will be no speculation.

I think you have been reading to many comics. Such a suggestion is commercially naive. Sorry Vinny I don't agree because in the long term it would do more damage than good. Wink

Hey the comics I buy only have pictures of ladies in with only a few stories dotted around!
