Hi, I ordered my 1.2 lounge over 2 weeks ago via car lease scheme in pasadouble red and red cloth/ivory ambience interior. However, I've just noticed that whilst configuring this car on the website today, there's no option for red cloth interior anymore!! In fact there is this ivory cloth which I quite like. What does this mean?

Thanks,
 
It means that they've put new options on the site, an order that's already place won't be affected, you may or may not be able to change your order.
 
I'd phone the dealer to check as I ordered a Twinair Lounge, in countrypolitan yellow with brown and ivory seats, on 1st April 2014. A week later the dealer phoned to say that the brown was no longer an option and was I ok with the ivory. He also offered me the tft display which was not an option when I placed the order.
 
Thank you. I received confirmation that my car had been ordered on 10th April 2014, so I'm hoping that there's still time to make any changes (I really want the tft display as well!!). I've emailed the car lease company and hope I hear from them on Tuesday, I have this feeling that they may not be able to change the order once its been placed :(

JimL - how many weeks are you anticipating for delivery? I've been told to wait 12 weeks.
 
They told me 12 weeks too. It's a long time!!! Glad I was offered the TFT display though, it's a bit more money, but it looks great.
 
An update on my order in case others are interested - I was able to change my order and get the new all ivory cloth interior and TFT display (£250) :) what I found weird was that the lease scheme company said that the leather gear knob comes standard on the lounge, whereas the Fiat website says otherwise. Hmmm.

JimL - have you received any updates on when your car will be delivered? I haven't as of yet.

12 weeks? By the time I get my 500s in June I will have been waiting 36 weeks ...so 12 weeks makes me quite envious..?
 
The dealer phoned this morning. They're receiving the car in the next day or two and I'm collecting it on 5th June. I can't wait............

I picked mine up today and it drives like a dream. Bonus was they never charged for the TFT display!! Have you heard when you'll get yours? ImageUploadedByFIAT Forum1401990072.331198.jpg

Thats a beautiful car!! The yellow looks so good. :)
Thank you for updating me - that was really quick of Fiat (8 weeks?).
I contacted the dealer and they said they still don't have an estimated date of delivery in the UK :( I know I changed my order end of April, so maybe that's extended delivery (tft screen, new cloth interior, and ESP). Come on Fiat!!

That sucks. You ordered yours before me and I changed my order too. I would have thought it would have been built with mine as we're both in the UK. I hope you get it soon. Keep us posted.
 
I ordered mine on the 24th April and was originally told delivery to the delearship would be 26th June. But this week the date was changed to the 7th July. So if you've missed this delivery you should get yours around the same time as me. Hope this helps :)

The date which you order a car doesn't directly influence when you'll get it.


Two people could order the same car on the same day from different dealers and get it weeks apart, all depends where the slots are in the queue that each dealer has.
 
I ordered mine the 24th April I've got to wait till 25th July for mine
