New D4 on order
Just been in today and signed all the papers for a new D4 HSE, going for Aintree Green this time as the last 2 have been blue. Only downside is the expected delivery date is 10th of September (that's 184 days from today ) Although they did say the delivery date may come forward once it is on the system Cheers Ian

Nice one......
We have about 6 weeks to wait and that's hard enough. Fingers crossed that it comes forward.

Have just got the Aintree for the RRS and it is a lovely colour especially in the sunshine. Also there aren't too many of them around!

Good one Ian!
Wow!!! Six months expected delivery date?!?! I'm glad I got mine back in December and only had to wait for a bit more than a couple of months! But why so much?

Lucky man
Out of curiosity does the dealer guarantee a value of you car now for then or does he take it now at a higher value?

I was quite surprised with the delivery date
@blackbeltbob, the dealer could have taken the car now but I would need a 4x4 for the next six months as have events booked so opted to keep it, he will give me a price for it 3 months before the delivery date and then I will decide whether to part ex it or sell it privately
@Wiggs Is that for a factory order or for one of their stock cars coming in? Mine is going to be a factory order as I want the rear diff and a few other bits which is why the delay
@Mark, in case I forget happy birthday for the 10th of September Cheers Ian
