They made a mistake at build and so they're swapping your Conti 5s for S(lippery)001s at portside.
Whey ya bugger! It's finally arrived after an 8 month wait....

Ha, ha. Your wickedness will be paid in full. But they will be better than the RE050 tyres that yours will come with.  :evil:

Just out of interest how many weeks did it take in the end, it might give me a better idea when mine will be delivered.

The car was already in the system albeit with a completely different spec and scheduled for build Week 51. I took over the order and reconfigured the spec and got a tracker number on 12th Nov. it was built and left the factory on 9th Jan and arrived at dealer 21st Jan
So I waited around 12 weeks from when I ordered but have no idea how long it had already been in the system before that  :huh:
