Hi, couldn't find any info on the Internet, but got a call from the delear about my order at built status called 12/09/13
But can't tell me when it will arrive in the uk. (next phone call stage)
Just wondering if anyone can give me an idea of how long I'm going to be waiting?
Thanks,
Bex

I guess it will be on the same boat as my 500s then not too long I hope!

Ha, I'm hoping not too long I hate waiting! But it will be worth it! Fingers crossed they will both arrive soon. I've heard so many different time scales of shipping and the process.
Thanks for the reply though!

My dealer said the last week of this month which doesn't leave much time, I will believe it when we get a call!

Well all we can do is hope, I'm desperate to get mine! I know it will be worth the wait but so annoying knowing its built and can't drive it! What have you ordered? Spec wise?

Yes I know! I've gone for a 1.2 500s standard apart from electroclash grey paint, wanted a TA but couldn't justify the extra, it will be a bit of a change from my vw golf gt tdi, what about you?

Nice! I Love that colour! Good choice I've had a 1.2 pop. Have a TA at the min but ordered one volare blue with elec sunroof side strips upgraded alloys and sat Nav port thing mines the standard TA spec at the min but the dealer offered me it at a good deal so couldn't resist the extra spec. (yeah I'm easy persuaded)
I know probably be unlucky and they will say its been delayed or something, it will be a week 2moro from built phone call. Takes longer to ship than build!

Nice! I decided against the sunroof for the extra little headroom! My wife has a 1.2 lounge in pasodoble red with the chrome kit. It does seem to be the proverbial slow boat from China/Poland!

Lovely, well Ive always wanted an electric sunroof so went for it, I'm not that tall and generally only me and the boyfriend and he doesn't get a say.
Let's hoping all the order is right and arrives soon!
Good luck with the new 500 I'm sure you will love it!

I'm 6'2 so at least the sports seats seemed to be a bit lower than the lounge ones. Let me know when you hear anything and hope to see some pictures soon!

Well that might be a problem for you haha, I'm 5'6-7 ish so hopefully will be still comfy. I will do! And yeah hopefully see the nice colours of the 500 posted up before October here's to wishing anyways!

Yawn!

Thanks for that

Sorry. Just a very boring discussion. Important for you and your new friend. But boring for the rest of us! Why not PM each other.

Glad you have found time in your amazing life which is worth so much more than mine to comment on what I should or shouldn't be doing with my life as you can probably see I'm new to the forum and only posted a question as to which I wanted an answer, which led to conversation as many other question/post do so thanks forum police for giving me this lovely warning! I will do as I am told next time, please don't reply as I'm trying to have a nice evening no need to be commented on by someone who clearly has no useful input into a conversation. So nice one.

Oh god, why are 500 owners so freaking prissy?

Don't wish to state the obvious but if you don't like it don't read it!

Don't wish to state the obvious, but this is not your forum and general polite netiquette is to take conversations to PM.

Ok points made and understood
