I'm leaning towards ordering the M12 GTC, as I prefer open top motoring. Besides Joust, has anyone else got one on order ? What delivery date were you quoted ?

Yes and June. I ordered a few days before the motorshow so i think i'm one of the first few orders. However i think June is a little optomistic conidering the development work that needs doing prior to them shipping the final mould to SA to produce the bodies............then bring them back to add the engine etc..

Wing is under discussion. They can't make their mind up seems to be the truth. They have had it with and without it seems. I suggested a "smaller" wing would be nice

Roof is still under development - they are looking at a canvas "elise like but easy to put on" and then a targa type top that you can fit behind the seats later on.

I'm No. 11 (Lee's allocated the build numbers - give him a ring stub if you want yours) and quoted August/September "if all goes well" - just in time for when the UK gets days with sun

Hi,

We ordered one after the car show. Delivery 12-15 months quoted by Mole Valley. Bought the M12 GTO demonstrator to make the wait easier

ummm...right, Mole are quoting 15 months for a new order ! Seems they are probably being realistic (or pessimistic ?) about how soon we'll get full production of the GTC.

Still interested in a GTC, but MV are telling me that the first cars are due Dec 2004, so 2005 for a new order.

Anyone heard different dates ?

Sounds about right. I have order number 3 and don't expect anything for at least 12 months...............

Yes we have a GTC on order since last November; to replace our yellow M12 GTO via mole Valley

Have not even got a build number yet and quote likely 18 months time assuming Lee has time to sort our the "roof" !!

Last time I spoke to Lee (at Bedford Autocar/Noble track day) he was certainly into 2004 for the first cars.

He said earliest Q1/Q2 for the first cars but wasn't very sure about that - its then just a case of their run-rate as to how long it will be - but I would imagine for an order now you are going to be in for a serious long wait....

Think we will change from the GTC for an M14 and hope deposit transferable from the GTC! Should get better PX for our 3R. Will the factgory do this or Mole Valley?
