simontelfer Posted August 12, 2003 Report Share Posted August 12, 2003 Just been to my dealer and my car is here.... The dealer is being a bit helpful and sitting on it until 1st September as I am on holiday until then. Its in the showroom under armed guard, i've wired it to the mains, left a number of small but lethal snakes in the glovebox and under the seat, dusted it for prints and put chalk marks on the tyres to make sure it isn't moved, touched or dribbled on. Its a 5 door, black with black leather and looks drop dead. I've had a sit in it and the general fit/finish is pretty good, the engineering and detail under the backend is also quite impressive, even the springs are branded 'R' sport. Can't wait, but i've got to.... Dealer is in Watford if anyone wants a look, but its mine, all mine... my precious... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

simontelfer Posted August 12, 2003 Author Report Share Posted August 12, 2003 Shao, you could try gazumping, but i've got their gti courtesy car as ransome and I don't mind running around in that for another few months until the mkv comes around (business [email protected]/mile on 160 miles a day is making it a right little revenue earner) mind you all things have a price and I could be tempted to join the ranks of autotrader for something north of £30k, but on the other hand I reckon the wait is worth it....

shao_khan Posted August 12, 2003 Report Share Posted August 12, 2003 It is a practise in the UK house market where basically people who think they haev a house deal sorted at the last minute find that someone else has put in a better offer and you have to start all over again - quite often you will have paid out survey fees, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
