I've ordered one, due for delivery end of September / beginning of October

They're not available until the beginning of September, how did the owner of that one get it so early?

I like the color, but not the Checkmate pattern on the sides. Will this particular blue color and silver roof/trim be available in the States in 2006? Thanks!

It's a Checkmate-only colour combination - Space Blue / Silver

The only thing I don`t really like is the way the seats have been done. But I didn`t hang around to much as it was chucking it down with rain.
