Current lead time?
« on: 11 July 2015, 18:21 »
What's the current lead time for GTDs? It's a lease car and the lease company have said delivery in Mid-October. The tracking number says the order has been sent to the factory. Presumably it won't be any sooner? I had spoken to a dealer a few weeks ago who said the lead time for new orders was 6 months?!?!

Sounds about right. I ordered my GTD at the end of June and it's due in September.

To echo what everyone above has said....be prepared to wait,

I ordered mine Jan 28th...its being built next week so by the time it arrives at the dealer it will possibly be a 28/29 Week delivery

Hi,

I ordered mine on May29th and it arrived in the UK yesterday so that could be less than 10 weeks from order to pick-up with a bit of luck.

Very lucky by the sound of it.

Neil.
