Hi peeps! Just been on the phone to the brokers. Bearing in mind it was due to be delivered mid Jan and I put the date back to get an 07 plate, they are now saying it's not arrived as there is a delay at the factory!!

I've been phoning regularly to get update to check everything was going smoothly. No problems reported. Sold my car yesterday (:D ) and it'll be gone from Friday. I'm going to be carless now :ar: :bomb:

Not a happy bunny. :madfawk:

Can anyone remember what the cause of the delay was? Something was mentioned about Recaro seats, but mine hasn't got them. Just don't want to be fobbed off. Even if it arrives tomorrow they said the transporter will be fully booked. Fuming about this, in case you couldn't tell.

I thought the delays on the Recaros were on the 197 only. I have had no word of the 225s being delayed.

Hmmm, seems I just have ****e luck with new cars then. When I went to pick up my VTR many moons ago, I phoned up two weeks, one week, the day before, and even the day I picked it up. Each time I was told everything was fine. On the day I picked it up after phoning to check it was there, I was told it was still in France!!!

Two weeks untill delivery! They wanted me to come back then. I informed them that I had just sold my other car so I would be needing a courtesy car. Did get to drive their VTR demonstrator for two weeks. I didn't thrash it though :headbang:

I'm buying through my girlfriends work (Barclays). Best price going, but worst service imaginable. Website is rubbish, phone service is rubbish, and it seems end product delivery is none too hot either.
