My17's look to be being built stupid quick.. The turn around n them at the moment for new orders looks obscene :O. Which makes sense as ford will want them all off for the inevitable jump in production for the 18s.

There's less new orders obviously, probably some cancellations of MY2017, so the waiting list is much shorter (or/and RHD cars are being built more often) :)

Bit of the latter element to it ;)!

Am I just being sensitive here, or could someone explain why I receive no interest in anything I post whereas all others do?

If, for some reason I'm not welcome here, please someone say or just delete my profile.
Easy Nige, this is a bit of a dead subject for some - truth is, as soon as you collect - you will forget about all the drama leading up to that point. Ask me how I know! I completely ignored this thread until i ordered again...

I enjoy your input as much as anyone else and i genuinely look forward to pick up day for others. You are one of us mate, one of this great community - keep at it and get ready to clear your weekend plans for all the summer meets!

Nige, you want to try and be Scottish, I get ignored and have the piss ripped out me :D

Kristian's right buddy, I very rarely post in this section, that's Manders job :lol: Wait till you get the car, once you start putting pics up and modding her, there'll be jobbies loads of comments :thumbsup:

Ridiculously quick..

I see the Americans are getting great deals on '17 MY now so they're obviously slowed by less demand, or as has already been mentioned they're building more RHD more often?

I'm glad I got my '17 on the way, I'll bet we're close to the order books closing in the UK now?

So, I had a mail from the dealer yesterday..

"Hi Nige, just checked the systems and it looks like your car is getting closer so you might be in it mid month"?

I replied, "Hi Andrew, actually she arrived in Zeebrugge last Sunday morning and was immediately discharged, so she will more than likely leave for Southampton next Friday so will be on British soil Saturday.At this point I shall commence the process of nagging you to get the car up to Gloucester so that I can place ÂŁ37K in your hands and drive her away. The money is burning a hole in my pocket ".

As yet I've had no reply...... Mid Month.. yeah right!!

@Kristian87 - Quick question on this. How long after ordering did it take you to receive your VIN?

Just want to know if I should be pestering the dealer as yet. :D

Wow! If they can keep up this timescale ont the 18MY I may order one!
Bet they don't manage that, more likely to be back to a year wait again for 18's

It might already be in the UK, given it arrived in Zeebrugge last Sunday?
