Transportation to dealer

Spitfire4 · Aug 28th, 2014, 08:17

My Volvo has gone from 'ordered' yesterday to 'transportation' today, so maybe it might be at my dealer by 7th September, getting closer.

Lucky you, must be getting excited! Do we know if the time from transportation to delivery is a constant or I wonder do the times vary hugely?

Mine was locked in yesterday, don't suppose that means much though!

Not sure on delivery says can take up yo 10 days, ours was locked in at the end of July, if that's any help, and yes getting excited, so is our daughter as she is going on the insurance so her and the wife can have girlie days, more expense I think!

congratulations - only call it 9th September as he's promised me a track day with yours before you take delivery

Lol, naughty, there'll be an argument when we pick it up as to who drives it first, and as usual I'll loose!

Just explain to them that the first one to drive it off the fourcourt has to pay you the £2-3k depreciation that first revolution of the wheels inccurs

Guarantees you first bite lol

Awesome.... fingers crossed.

Hopefully Flux wont put too many miles on the clock.
When did you order?

Flux · Aug 28th, 2014, 14:38

Yeah but when they've all gone to bed ...............

I took my children (in pyjamas) for a 6.30 am drive the morning after I took delivery of mine.

We ordered on 23 May this year and original date was around end of September, then we changed spec and it came forward a week and now dealer says it should be there around the 7th, fingers crossed.
