I was in the same position last year. In the end I decided it wasn't worth the waiting around and had it registered on 21st December and picked it up the following day when I got back from Hols. Might have cost a couple of hundred quid in resale value but at least we made all the Xmas dos we had to go to.
I'm inclined to agree.

Just got an update from my dealer - build date is now 10th November with factory completion of 15th. Then it needs to be delivered to dealer (how long?) then the dealer will screw on my bits of bling, so hopefully will be in my sticky hands before the end of November.
I'm starting to get excited now (reaches for mirror to start practicing permagrin) 8) 8)

you were lucky then as the locking rear diff has always been an optional extra on all models of the D3 and D4.
