Please no..... - mywillia - 22-12-2011 01:13pm

My car was due at the dealers this morning but my wife has just sent me a link from the local newspaper.

I spoke to my salesrep early this morning to arrange collection for 3:00pm tomorrow. He said that they were expecting the car to them some time this morning!

That transporter is less than 100 yards from my dealers.

I cannot make out the photo, is your car on the transporter? or is the transporter blocking access to the dealer for yor cars delivery?

Either way its poor luck!

I'm hoping that it was transporting cars to the ford dealership and not Farnells!
There is a car on the back of the transporter but I can't make out the photo either
A later report says that the road is blocked and trafiic is being diverted.
I'm keeping everything crossed at the minute

story updated here -> http://www.thetelegraphandargus.co.uk/news/9434962.Three_people_in_hospital_after_four_vehicle_accident_in_Bradford/?ref=ec

A Clio and a Yaris involved -Firefighters had to cut the roof off the Clio, which had ended up on its side pinned against the transporter, to get the woman passenger out - Ouch! No mention of an Evoque!

WB

Thanks for the update. There's a new picture and it's not an Evoque on the back of the transporter although it is red (looks like a ford fiesta). Yeah!!!!
I can breath again..

Great news that your collecting tomorrow. I spoke to farnells yesterday to confirm when I need to firm up the spec for mine so they can place the order and was advised first week in January and that delivery will stiil be March. So I'm way off feeling like you do at the moment. It's a nice Christmas present for you, enjoy and don't forget the pictures.
