Delivery time I cancelled Tangerine, I'm waiting for NHB now! - Page 2

simon1 · 13th March 2008, 16:30

I drove past a dealership yesterday and there was one on the forecourt, and it really looks great. I've put in a new order today after being screwed around earlier this week so now I'll wait and see when it's due. Can't wait - my son thinks I'm ordering the Champagne Silver and really loves the orange. Can't wait to see his face when it's delivered!!

I still haven't seen one on the road yet though.

Better put your son straight right now with the proposed colour!

He's probably going to get down to Halfords to get the touch up paint, to use afterwards when he borrows it for the first time!

The Official Greek importer informed me that the ship (with my ORANGE spaceship inside) is at the port of Volos (350 km north of Athens). It has to pass the customs (4-5 days there) and then the truck will bring it to me. So I have to wait 10 days more...

I spotted my first tangerine in Harefield Hospital car park last week. I quite liked it.

And I don't care what my dealer said about residuals, I quite like Milano as well.

Rubbish! The Focus is a totally different orange. The Honda orange looks classy and far more attractive. Put them side by side and see what I mean.

Plus it's a Focus, nuff said!

Admittedly reports say its a great car to drive, but its got a "Rep Mobile" history to it.
The Focus's colour is what I would call a proper Orange, where as the Civ's is quite a bit different with the metallic.

I am biased as I am seriously considering the Tangerine on many accounts, one being that its different as all the Civic's I have seen on the road so far are black and also my partner isn't to struck on the orange, plus possible re-sale values.
Other than that it's great
