Default Ordered!

Dealer got close enough to DTD after upping my part-ex deal plus discounts. Pretty impressed, got within £500 which I am happy with.

Got a bit carried away with the spec though - thanks to you lot putting ideas in my head - just kidding, after all.... I did ask for ideas and actually they were most helpful in making decisions.

Setting me back a pretty penny but this is a once in a lifetime even for me, I plan to keep the car for around 10 years so hopefully get good value from it! Tried to scrimp on some extras but didn't want to regret anything after taking delivery so went hard on the spec!

Congratulations on your new order. I hope you are as happy as I am with my car. I also plan to keep mine for circa 10 years. Don't forget the 5 years servicing for £500. Good luck.

Sounds like that will be a lovely spec of car... i'm sure you'll enjoy it, especially the Driver Support Pack which is an excellent option.

Congratulations, excellent spec which you wont regret.
You'll feel excited then relieved then scared then depressed then really scared but ultimately you will be absolutely chuffed and grin every time you drive it..
(9 yrs 11 months and counting for me..)

Yes make sure you are down for 5 yrs servicing and I'm guessing your discount includes the £750 finance inventive (DTD always include this anyway), very well done..

Congratulations & great spec.

Was this the same dealer who initially said he could only offer you a £1,500 discount!! - and the one who refused to give you back your initial deposit?

The end of Swishy, chapter 1........

Not sure what the next few chapters will be, looking forward to it though

The final chapter will be excellent - I can't wait to hear the feedback on all of those lovely options.

That's a fantastic spec......seems you and I are only ones with electric passenger seat

I thought mine was well specced but not in your league.

I do have one thing you don't...front blind spot camera...great if you come up to blind junctions, but not something I'd lose sleep over if I didn't have it. Looks good to passengers though lol.

I can live without VOC & PCC but am thinking I should have gone for the 4C.

You'll love the car and you'll HATE the wait.

Enjoy.
