Amazed at the turnaround you have managed.
Which dealership have you used?
I put my deposit down in July 2001 and I'm not likely to get my new car until September 2002!

Hope you like the car!

it's a london thing methinks, order now for oct/nov.. guess they know we'll just be sitting in traffic for the first few month, so by the time everyone else has their cars we'll just making it onto the open road.

minicoopersgirl · Aug 2nd, 2002, 11:04 AM

I'm also getting DS/Black.
I'm with the others here...How did you get it SO fast. I put my deposit down November 01, July production and it will be delivered in 2 weeks.
Anyway, Pictures Pictures Pictures!!!!

Congratulations toombs. Enjoy

Obviously England is getting priority on S orders, which is a bit naughty, but that's life.

Cheers

So why is there such a disparity between waiting lists....it's weird. Almost as if the early orders got lost.
