Delivery time Type S GT ordered today

Dave 111s · 23rd October 2007, 21:01

Just ordered my new company car today, Type S GT 2.2 in Milano red with Blade Alloys and a couple of other extras (see previous post)

Really looking forward to fetting now, but i've been told there is a 20 week build time, which takes us to early March, can that be right?

what sort of time did it take you guys and girls to get hold of yours?

aslz78 · 23rd October 2007, 21:04

Well at least you'll get a nice new 08 plate right?

psykik · 23rd October 2007, 21:04

ooh enjoy! i got the 1.8 GT, feel like im missing a bit of grunt. You will obviously have none of those probs, or probs with ishift delay in gears etc, which im living with.

Mine took 3 weeks, they already had one ordered at factory and wanted to sell it, hence bargain.

robbo51 · 23rd October 2007, 21:40

Mine took 8 days. They had one at another branch. It came with 18" blades but they wanted too much so they put me 17" EX wheels on instead at no cost

Essexboy · 23rd October 2007, 22:25

Mine took 6 weeks. Originally want a normal Type S, but there was a 16 week wait or something silly so went for the GT.

5 month build time sounds about right

bit longer than some, bit less than others

If you are lucky, and your lease car co can do it, they may locate another one of the same spec on a dlr forecourt somewhere...

20 week wait for a Type S GT on tangerine and black also through company car lease scheme

Went for Alabaster silver instead, should be available mid November...unless they're having me on.

I ordered the NHB 2.2 Type S GT (18" Blades) at the start of August, It arrives 2nd week in November.

And worse still, time seems to slow down once you've ordered it.

Getting a neck like an owl now if I spot a Civi when driving.

No matter how long the wait, it'll be worth the wait.

All the best

My 5 door was about 10 weeks wait.
It is worth waiting for..

Holland · 29th October 2007, 20:38

My type S 1,8 is delivered within 2 weeks, so it took me also about 3,5 - 4 moths to get it deliverd. Can wait to get it.

BeefBurga · 29th October 2007, 21:06

ordered a few extras with mine.
Ipod connector
Blue tooth
Type R grill
Well if work are paying. . . . . . . . . .

Update from my original post. Looks like it's going to be delivered on 10th Jan which coinsides with the date my Merc goes back

I've got a C220 CDI Advantgarde at the moment which I've had for the past two years, but the lease expires in January.

Not a bad car, but not worth £26500 in my opinion.

I also have an old (but nice low mileage example) 300TE24.

Very nice, but new ones are overpriced to a silly level.
