Is 24th your actual pick up date - can't remember are you getting yours from Norbury or Croydon.

No the 24th ( Sunday ??) was given to me as delivery, so another couple of days to prep the car on top.
Yes mine`s from Croydon, been dealing with a guy called Vic. What date did you order and what spec? Be interesting to compare progress!!

Alabaster Silver GT with mats, rear seatback pocket and parking sensors. Ordered 30/03/07. Originally didn't want the car until July and delivery date was 30/06/07 but then changed from NHB to Silver and date went back by a day. Call last week to say had been brought forward to 25th June with a pick up a few days later.

I`ll have to watch out for you as looks like our cars should arrive same time. This news won`t please my mate though who ordered a Alabaster silver but has been given a delivery date of mid July, mainly due to the Sat nav + HFT which we`ve been told is delaying production!

I read the top gear magazine version of the civic type r which was tested by the stig along with all the other hot hatches and guess what the stig loved it and voted it the best car by miles, so who's review are you going take notice off a tv presenter or a f1 test driver

Interesting that in the Top Gear magazine, the 'Stig' said the Civic type 'R' was the one he would want. This is in direct contrast to JC.
Good job they aren't in the Cabinet eh? No collective voice!
