Ok so mine was built on the 21st March and awaiting gate release :)
Sorry to ask as I`m sure it`s here somewhere, where and how do I track it`s progress ?
I truly didn`t think I was going to do this but I guess it`s all part of the process of Mustang ownership !
I thought that yours was built the same day as mine (15th)

Well, finally picked ours up 14 months after placing the order. Absolutely love it! Not had much of a chance to do much other than drive home in the rain so far, but the V8 is exactly what I'd hoped for, smooth, revvy and a fantastic noise. It's also got quite a lot of poke :)

Even in gloomy conditions the ruby red is lovely, was worried it would be a bit dull under grey UK skies, but it's nothing of the sort. I'm also really glad we went for the black wheels and trim, really suits the car and colour imo.

Only got a few quick snaps as it's wet and dark. Got to put the plates on tomorrow btw!

Looks amazing :thumbsup:
Ruby Red is one of the colours that looks great with or without the custom pack and my preference is no chrome so good choice!

And thank you David! Exact same spec as mine & love it!

Glad to hear you say that about the ruby; was a little concerned with our skies. Also good to see the ruby and black.... pretty but with a hint of muscle car meanness, so glad i did the same.

Thanks for posting (more.... more! :))

I got an interesting call yesterday from my dealer (yes I was shocked too.) They had a Mustang delivered last week but the person that ordered it wants to put off delivery to August/September, so they wanted to swap orders with someone. So anyway dealer asked me if I wanted to have this car, same spec as mine except it is an automatic instead of a manual, I said no. Dealer said that my car is to be delivered in July/August (didn't bother to correct him) and he didn't seem to know that mine has actually been built already (no surprise there.) I'm going to go in this afternoon to have a look at the car anyway and teach the dealer a few things :lol:

Was he going to give it to you for your price, ie free auto box?

Just come back from the dealership.
All my documents are signed and my trade-in price has been locked in. The new V5C should be arriving fairly soon. It means on collection day I don't have to do anything except grab my new car keys and drive away! :headbang:

What's more, my car has a solid delivery date of Wednesday the 30th. I'll be collecting it Thursday morning and I have already asked for the day "off" (AKA work from home) so I can spend all day fitting mods and valeting the car. :headbang:

The pony is almost home, ladies and gents, and I'm itching with anticipation!

Pat Kirks? You told me before....I forgot
Yeah that's them, it's just a symptom of getting on in life ;)

That's the car there.
