Just found out car is coing to be ANOTHER two weeks late... it was origonally due last week, then poss this week, but now I've been told its not going to be delivered to the garage for at least another two weeks - that means that with the PDI, its gonna be at least another 3 weeks before I get my hand on her ..!!

And do you know the really annoying thing..?!? It's all finished apart from the exhaust!!!

Commiserations. I know how you feel - my car should have had the snags sorted and been PDI'd by now ... I'm waiting on a call back from the dealer. It had better be ready this weekend or I'm seriously considering starting to lose my temper (I've been ultra patient up to now).

Since yours appears to be delayed at the factory perhaps you can get them to fit the new style seats or make the suspension geometry changes mentioned in the motorshow press pack?

I was guessing (hoping) that they would be fitted anyway as its only just coming off the production line...? (or am I being too optomistic.)

Also, I'm not sure what the new seats look like... do they look much different..?? Has anyone got any pictures...?!

I guess it depends how far your car is along the production line. From what you're saying it's near the end.

Update on mine - the dealer called and I collect it at 2:30 on Saturday

Just had a thought - any chance you can collect it from the factory?

The dealer normally needs two days to PDI the car.

Thought about that, but it still doesnt resolve the fact of the missing exhaust...... and it still will need to go through a PDI by the dealer...

Mine was delayed as well. It was due this week, now due to be collected by me on 19th June (they must be related!) I am getting by not worrying about it!
