Whilst an expensive proposition for Oz, by comparison to UK, something of a bargain at that price and spec. mpv 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What info should I be able to get from my dealer at this point? sam67R310 and mpv 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sam67R310 Posted May 30 Report Share Posted May 30 My Car was built mid April and according to the dealer was 'released to ship' immediately. That was 4 weeks ago. Heard nothing since. Must be sitting at Emden in the 6,000 space car park!! Now over 2 years from I placed the order. 😬 sbee 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VAT in UK @ 20% would add £9k. (No idea about taxes applied in Aus, but they’ll be there😬) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperSaiyanAbz Posted May 31 Report Share Posted May 31 My car was delivered today. Just snuck into the full 2-year timeframe from order to delivery. Such an amazing car and I can't wait to put some miles on it. Thank you to everyone for helping me get through this period. I washed it and clay barred it this evening so will hopefully post some pictures tomorrow. She's a beauty and everything I hoped for and more. To those waiting, you'll soon forget the wait once your car arrives, believe me! guy1, TurboTrev, DTX3 and 5 others 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
