Called my dealer yesterday, and he got back to me saying that it should be with them in 2 weeks!!

Our little 1.2 Sport, I cant wait :D
 
Do you mind me asking when you ordered? I ordered on 6th May and am still waiting for news :mad:

I wouldn't be too worried. I ordered first or second week of April and only a couple of weeks ago found out my car was in production and then this weekend found out that it's in transit to the UK.
 
Mine was ordered for my wife's birthday as a surprise, but I only have 3 weeks to go now, so it is looking a bit tight....
 
Wow a car for a birthday present?! You can marry me if it doesn't work out ;) lol. (Or just whisper a few hints to my fella on why buying extravagant presents is a good idea) :D

It does mean that I then get to change the family Galaxy for something a little more interesting to get me to the station, so there are advantages for me too :)
The scrappage scheme means that it works out cheaper for me to get a 500 then it is to run my old 1998 VW Passat for the next 3 years - crazy but true. I know which I would prefer, and certainly which my wife would as well!
 
all depends on what the dealer already has allocated to them and what is unsold and the spec is changeable on - 12 weeks is the norm, but if they have one on the system unsold and spec changeable for an earlier build week then they book the order against that slot.
 
a total of only 9 weeks after order and 3 weeks earlier than quoted, so maybe good news for all you lot who were quoted 12-14 weeks delivery!
i hope i get mine in only 9 weeks !! that's pretty good. the thought of waiting right round till september is killing me. i was quoted 12 weeks.

This was a new factory order with quite a few mods (16" Wheels, special paint, stripes etc), but placed just before the full details of the scrappage scheme was announced!
