ED30 Just been built
« on: 05 October 2007, 10:52 »
Just had a call from my dealer and been told that my ED30 is built and is now awaiting shipment from Germany to the UK!!

The waiting is almost over and I can feel a tingle up my spine at the thought of getting my grubby mits on my car after placing the order in late June  :shocked:

He said that it would either be on the ferry this Monday or Thursday and then he expected in Edinburgh for either late next week or early the week after.

He is calling me on Monday to arrange for me to come in and do the paperwork and give me an exact date for collection.

Was never really given a build date as such.  Ordered it on June the 20th and was told that I would get it around the middle of October. For some reason build week 38 jumps into my head but I may be wrong with that.

Pretty much happy with all I was told by the dealer and he was always realistic with me about delivery times so as not to buuld my hopes up. 

To be honest I have tried my best to put it to the back of mind till now as I would have been chomping at the bit to get hold of it otherwise  :smiley: 

So all in all if I get it a week on Wednesday it will have been 18 weeks from order to delivery.
