That only applies to those who have changed their mind about colour choice about 10 times since placing their order.

Great news. Please keep posting updates for those of us with much longer waits.

I am going crazy checking out every blue car on the road. I have ordered AW but will probably switch to blue if they look half as good in the flesh as in the various photos.

There should be a LBB DCT here by the end of the month according to my dealer. Looking forward to a decent test drive.

Now you just gotta get her to the port...and on a ship...and across the ocean blue.

I am still waiting to hear if it's been loaded on a ship yet, how long does it normally take after the car has been built?

My dealer was hoping to show me an LBB by now but rang on Tuesday to advise that no car will be available until the launch on 16 April.

Seems like there is a very tight lock on this 16th April date.

They are going to book up a test drive for me shortly after 16th April.

In the meantime wife has declared that she is set against the blue so (assuming LBB looks as good in the flesh as in photos) I have some negotiating to do!

Any progress on your delivery?

I'd just use the fact you have already placed an order and they have your deposit that the least they could do is let you at look at the car.

Nope, still no vessel details as yet.
