Now looking very unlikely that there's any money to be made on this (which is a bloody shame seeing as I've had this on order for nearly 3 years

), and I'm being pushed by the dealer to finalise spec

So, before I call & cancel my order (& get my deposit back), is anyone interested in a queue jump for free?

All I need is my £500 back

They have a demo car (or at least they did last week, so maybe 'had'!) at Peter Vardy (resists commentary on the new dealership) in Edi... would have thought they'd be selling every example ASAP, but then I guess maybe a couple demo cars shuffle round all the dealers in such cases?

Have you test driven a demo, Ross?

Mag articles sugg ave ~£5k extras required to meet desired spec

Not driven a demo, no point - was never intending on owning the car

Hey ho, looks like a quick call to John Clark today....

Call made, he seemed none too bothered, plenty people waiting he said

I created a C&B story about waiting for the Touring

what a pity - I wonder why the backlash.. anticipation of a CSL or depreciation.. reviews have been very good.

M6s starting to look tempting..

..got to be a good buy at that and performance to give your new steer a go.. cracking GTs imo.

Just checked - it's this Fri!

Not a hope my friend

Always fancied OP in the future tho, there was talk of doing a Jock7s.co.uk trip down at some point
