Order to Build Week
« on: 12 August 2009, 15:33 »
Could those that have ordered, please let me know how long it took from when you placed your order till you got your build week ?

I'm 3 weeks in and I don't have mine yet, not sure if thats the norm or not.

Obviously they have an amount of cars per week that they can build. Im sure as the orders come in they just fill the production week quota, Then move onto filling the next. I assume that there is already a large backlog of orders coming in.
