I paid a good lump to my dealers as a deposit but that was my personal choice, some have not paid at all and showed interest in 2008 and some of them are on the list before me spec dependant or untill they drop out. And others only paid the 500 quid asking price which is refundable.

I think its down to the dealer what they ask for , but as said, some dealers are sitting on over 40k of deposits which is a little wrong me thinks.

Luckley for me if all goes to plan my car will be here in September 8th for the official release. Im told im car order number 6 so they wont have my money for that long.
