Goffie - Hope you don't mind me asking.....
I'm guessing the car's 'in stock' somewhere? Just out of interest did you have much choice of cars in stock, and was it a national search or were you just lucky with a specific dealer?
Cheers.

Yep Guy Salmon who i had the D3 off were my first dealer as they were on the way home. Appreciate not many vehicles about with 3/4 month delivery times. Coventry had just had 3 off XS in which had been ordered 6 months ago. Probably still 2 left.

Thanks - that's interesting, especially as one regularly gets the impression that stealers want potential owners to think that there are none in stock and that one would be privileged to get a build slot for delivery in 4 months time; no discount, etc, etc.
I got cars that were in stock when I bought both my D3s, but that was in 2006 and 2008. I appreciate that the times they maybe are a changin' but I've always been happy to compromise on spec' for a good deal and early delivery (which was same day, in 2006!) and preferred it that way.
I guess that no snow = fewer orders
Enjoy your D4!!

D4 Delivery
Just fell lucky for a change. Choice of 3 xs they had just taken delivery of after a 6 month wait. All came with I Pod lead,Full size spare ,Black wood pack and i had the on with reversing camera and got them down £1600 on list price without paying for the extras as well. I delayed the delivery till 1st March for new plate and they offered me £3k more for my motor than they did 12 month ago and it has another 20K on the clock.

Result I ordered mine last week and have been told June delivery, it must be because they are making all these cars for stock On a mission to find the perfect Pork Pie. Just Found it (I think)..(Yes I have)

Biggests sales growth is China,Russia,North America and together with Ford restricting engine supply im afraid Allocation of vehicles to GB is low down on Tata,s priorities.

I know that with Merc and Audi it's also about a three month wait.
