Ok now I'm pissed.

[slowhand99]

April (This year). If it arrived when they're claiming, that'd be a 10 month wait and I was told about 12 at the time.

I ordered in March and am still being told early 2016 but probably new reg end Feb beginning March. No dates or VIN on Vista and dealer always says "no news from the 'Mustang team' ". He knows there was a delay on V8's, but doesn't know why (!). I haven't tried the direct Andy/Karen route as I can't see the point. No one appears to have yet had anything reliable from them either. 1st March would be three weeks less than the promised year. Meantime my Mustang fund has won £200 on the premium bonds

I'd want chapter and verse on how it's getting from the port to the dealer.

Congratulations!... Now the excitement moves up a gear for us all...

As far as i know mine's still sat at Baltimore waiting to be picked up, so I'm going to need all your pics, reviews, to keep me going over the next month or two.... I guess we'll start to see UK press and magazine activity in the next couple of weeks also.

Unfortunately I received some really bad news within the family over the last month and with that it's a real shame my mustang looks to still be sitting in Baltimore :(....

Not to go in to too much detail but basically my brother-in-law is terminally ill with Cystic Fibrosis and has been deteriorating since I met him (nearly 10yrs ago) when his body started to reject his lung transplant. He is nuts about cars like me and even more so with American cars because his dad is American. When I told him I was getting the new mustang he has been excited since and can't wait to see it. Now fast forward from the day I told him I paid the deposit (20.09.14) he has deteriorated now to the point where we have been told by the doctors to spend as much time with him as possible :(. He is a massive Star Wars fan and with the new film coming out on 18.12.15 it hit me hard when I was told that he may not get to see that film and with the latest delays I also realised that my mustang may not make it hear in time for him to see it and make memories together driving around as we have been speaking about every time we catch up
Don't get me wrong I know delays can happen and things go wrong so as such I am not blaming anyone BUT with the car just sitting at the docks while other cars sail away and latest being that 1 car built after mine may even be delivered next week, it just hits me a little when I think I could be enjoying it with him.
Life deals some cruel cards and I wish I could swap the hand he has been dealt!!

Sorry to hear that mate, very sad.

 

[Holf]

That's really tough to hear, and really hard for you to deal with I'm sure.

All the best to you & the family & fingers crossed he gets to see both.

 

[Stark]

Thank you guys and yeah I am praying he at least can see both of them but obviously mainly just keep fighting on for more time.

If any of you guys and girls are on Facebook, it would be greatly appreciated if you could share this page https://www.facebook.com/Sithtic-Fibrosis-787839381344227/ with your family and friends to help him at least achieve seeing the Star Wars Film.

Sorry to hear this, truly tragic. I read only yesterday about another Star Wars fan who had the wish granted (http://www.theguardian.com/film/201...rs-fan-who-saw-new-film-prior-to-release-dies).

I will share and hope that he achieves this too.
