So jealous!

A question for those waiting for 65 plates... Is it not an issue then if your car arrives there in August? Is it just a case of telling them to hold onto it until it can be registered as a 65 plate?

Well I was going to ask the dealer to hang onto it till Sept 1st but since the inevitable build week slip that will not be necessary  :rolleyes:

If you're car is delivered to dealer in August you should definitely be asking them to keep it till the '65 plate.

I wont be waiting! Mines a lease car so reg is not really a biggy as i dont care for residuals. After having it on order for what seems like a lifetime as soon as that baby is ready, im taking her! 15 or 65

I ordered mine with the full intention of having it as a 65 plate, which the dealer knows, so it will be going on the road on 1st September.  Quoted 19 weeks delivery and it will arrive in about 13 so that's good news.

Ok - so my original post said I had a confirmed build week, of 29.06.15.

Today is the last day of that week, and according to the tracker my car hasn't moved to stage 4 (build in progress).

Is this normal? Can anyone shed any light?

Thanks in advance

Mine was the same - it went to "left the factory" or similar without showing build in progress.  I think the online tool is a bit vague.

Interestingly, my dealer has more current information on the progress on my car than the tracker.

Tracker says 'Build in Progress' and has done for about 2 weeks.

Dealer told me yesterday that it had been built and was in-transit.

Just shows that the tracker is running a tad slow!

Hoping you guys can help me please.

It's likely to be about 3 weeks until my car becomes available (early-mid Aug).  At what point, do you think does it make sense to wait for the new 01 September plate?

Thanks

For me, if it arrives mid-August then it's only 2 more weeks until the 65 plates are out. May as well wait another couple of weeks for them!
