Well i had a phone call this morning off my Fiat dealer, My 500 that i was expecting mid November will be ready for collection week tomorrow (y)(y)
I can't believe it!!
I cant get the time off on the Tuesday to pick her up but i have day off on Thursday which happens to be my birthday!! So il be picking her up then!! What an awesome b day pressie :slayer:
There was a slight problem though (n)the full body kit i requested hasn't been fitted due to some problems with the body shop , but I'm not to bothered as i haven't paid for that yet and they'll let me know when i can have it fitted.

Im soooooo excited!!
 
Thats excellent news, sounds like Thursday is gonna be a great day for you! I've a feeling you'll have a big smile all day :)
 
Thanks peeps :)
Ive had another chat with my dealer this afternoon, and she'll be ready Saturday now!! Its all happening so quick - not that I'm complaining mind (y)
 
I get my Ipod week Thursday :)
How come you haven't had yours yet chick?

Well you know UPS lost it when delivery it on 9th Sept - Apple agreed to upgrade me to a 16GB new Nano ....... but they are on back order and it's due for delivery 26th Sept to 2nd Oct - not even despatched yet. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrr. At the moment I have one cd in the car and I don't know how much more of the Muppets soundtrack (for my toddler!) I can handle! ha ha.

Bet Saturday can't come quick enough for you :)
 
Great news Jodie Lee. (y)
I must have the slowest dealer out there as mine has still not arrived at the dealership. (n):cry:

It's worth the wait though ..... was so glad when my toddler refused his daytime nap yesterday morning as I then had an excuse to go out for an hour and a half drive so he could nap then - it worked, what a smooth ride it must be!

It cant I'm soooo excited, the worse part is, my better half has been in a meeting all day so i havent spoken to him so he doesn't know.
I wouldn't be to amused about the missing Ipod!! At least your having the new nano mind, my other half nearly placed the order for my Ipod a couple of days before the new one came out! I was gutted cause i thought he bought me the old one - but i have the new one :slayer:
 
Well Ive just had a call from the dealer, i cant pick her up Saturday. They re having some trouble with the DVLA which means my Private plate isn't on yet - il be having her Monday instead. TBH I'm quite annoyed about it all. I was told the car was coming Saturday so they needed me to change my insurance for the 500 which takes affect on Saturday, all set for me to pick her up - i cant phone up admiral again cause they charge £25 every time you make a change to you policy so its not worth it for 2 days but it also means I'm not insured to drive my Beetle either :bang:

A nice chap on here who is in the know about these things told me that cherished plate transfers can take up to 7 working days.
I have no doubt that when my car eventually turns up this will be another cause for delay as I am having the plate from my current car transferred to the 500.
 
I'm really not pleased Ive been left uninsured on my beetle (n)
I might have to take my other half's car to work on Monday - but i don't like driving it, its so big and powerful, it scares me :(
 
Well its all been sorted (y)
They were going to deliver the car to me on Monday but i didn't want it delivered in case there was any damage on the car - i thought i would have hell of a job proving the damage wasnt caused by me, so for those reasons i wanted to see it before it left the fore court.
My Fiance called the dealers this morning and told them he wasnt happy with me being left uninsured on my car, the car being delivered as we wanted to inspect it 1st.
They we're very apologetic and said that if i come down tomorrow to sign an insurance paper, il be covered on my beetle through they're insurance until i pick up the 500 and also they given me more money part x on the Beetle and originally agreed!(y)
The only thing is, as i cant get time of work to pick her up Monday, i wont be picking her up until Thursday which to be honest I'm really pleased about - Me and Bella the 500 will share our birthdays :slayer:

What a great birthday present - good that the garage came through with some help for you.

My ipod is due by Monday - wonder if it'll arrive before you get your car?! We can share Ipod experiences - I've never owned an ipod and find it quite daunting even though I'm a proficient computer user! Hoping i'll have more luck choosing tracks than I do trying to call my mum - it keeps ringing "kitchen man" instead of "mum"!!!!!

Roll on Thursday for you :D
 
So not a bad result in the end ,i had a similar problem they wanted me to pick up mine monday ,but i just could`nt get the time off work so wednesday it was:).
With us all or (most of us )waiting 10 weeks or more a few more days did not bother me (y)soon be thursday.:)
