Delivery time How long did you wait for yours? - Page 3

allan40alt · 14th August 2006, 13:30

Hi Steve, you could try contacting your local dealer and asking "if I was to order one of these...how long would delivery be?".

SteveWatson · 14th August 2006, 13:38

Good thinking Batman! I'll give that a try.

elfa7 · 14th August 2006, 13:56

Anything up to six weeks, at a guess.

Big-Chris · 14th August 2006, 14:01

I'd be prepared for a long wait - as seen in the 'how long...' poll 40-odd percent of people here waited longer than 8 weeks

or you could be lucky I guess

I ordered my civic in Galaxy Grey, 1,8 petrol, Comfort without any extras on the 9 March 2006. Delivery date was week 27 ( beginning July), it is 17 weeks. Unfortunately when I called sales manager at the of June he informed me that due to a big demand on this car, my delivery date will be postponed to October 2006. If I calculate this correctly it is 30 week waiting time. I wrote several emails with complaints both to Honda Belgium and Honda Europe, but I did not receive any reply.

I ordered my 1.8 ES in Cosmic grey on the 7th Aug and i drove it home on the 14th, thats the same day the dealer said it would be ready!
I was thouroughly impressed with the level of service and i will be recomending Honda to all my mates!

elfa7 · 16th August 2006, 17:09

Welcome Malk. Did you get it from A.L.M ?.

The Great Soprendo · 16th August 2006, 17:15

I've just been told by my fleet manager that the royal blue pearl model I've chosen has a delivery date of Dec 31st (though they expect this is probably the worst case scenario). I have a choice of either waiting till then (and keeping my Alfa for a bit longer...which is more costly, but in some ways tempting), or selecting a more common colour ). They ordered a galaxy grey one at the same time and the delivery date is 24th Sept!

Malk · 16th August 2006, 17:15

yes
in macclesfield

What about you?

elfa7 · 16th August 2006, 18:06

Same here. Ordered 8th Dec, received it 21st Feb.

Malk · 16th August 2006, 18:24

How have they been generally?
The sales guy was great and i am hopeing they manage to keep up this level of service!

As I don't have an option of calling a dealer to find out, can anyone give me any kind of ballpark figure on how long you think I'll be left waiting? Can't wait to get shot of this 307!!

Do you know what lease co you are with?

I think you will be looking at about 10 weeks for i-shift

elfa7 · 16th August 2006, 18:33

The present salesmen are o.k, but there was a right cocky bugger there originally, but I think he "left" a while back. I had a right do with him, but its too long a story.

Malk · 16th August 2006, 18:40

Are you in Tytherington by any chance?
I have seen a black civic a couple of times in the last few weeks could it be you??

elfa7 · 16th August 2006, 18:46

Fiveways area H.Grove

Malk · 16th August 2006, 18:49

thats a long way to travel!
Why didn't you go to the stockport dealer?

elfa7 · 16th August 2006, 18:56

They had the Civic before S'port, and its a nice trip to Macc.

lee · 19th August 2006, 14:33

I ordered mine on 10th July, for delivery on 1st September. Just spoke with dealer - it arrived yesterday - just being prepped - booked in for handover at 9am... 13 days and counting... Can't wait now.

BL · 22nd August 2006, 16:27
