dude... where’s my car

[fizzy_drink]

Estimated delivery was end of December...

... this is the end of the first week in Jan and still no 182!!

Apparently, its in the UK and waiting to go on a transporter, so delivery is imminent..? Ive already called insurance and given them the details, so it can be taxed... so now Meggys on temporary cover...

Anyone else waiting for their car?

Can RCS find out more details ?

 

[Pete]

Ah I remember the wait for my 172, had to wait from June till October!

 

[lifelong 172]

Estimated for a reason, we never give an actual date for you until the car is in our showrooms, we cant stress how important the ESTIMATE is. Hope you get it soon mate. Phone up your dealer where you ordered it from and ask them to trace it. If it is in the country, expect it within 10 days at the latest to arrive at the showroom, then give them a few days to sort out the safety check and tax etc.......... Have fun..........

If its in the UK, they have a bit of work to do at the docks before is sent to the dealer. Not sure of the actuall work, but its things like adding the uk spec alarm

meh, most cars get raped on their PDI roadtest so people babying them running them in are blissfully unaware the tech who drove it before them has already caned the ass off of the car from cold anyway.

You lucky *****!!

Mind you, I got my first one in less than 24 hrs!

 

[Lee]

I did have to wait 6 - 7 weeks for it though. I was lucky enough to get in well before the factory shuts down for hols.

 

[Toypop]

Mine was getting on for 16 weeks then another fortnight on top of that as I sent it back with a load of faults.

 

[dazraffan]

i got told 4 weeks by renault 3 months later it turn up

 

[Munson]

Im waiting for mine also. Its apparently in the country I am hoping to pick it up next weekend - fingers crossed.

 

[fizzy_drink]

Well... you wont believe this.....

Got a phone call to say that its arrived and I can have it this afternoon if I could get the insurance docs to them before 6pm.

So I get the docs to go to the dealer, and look at them, and direct line got it wrong so now I have to wait until Monday!

I cant bear to wait another three days!

 

[Toypop]

Dipsh1ts, took three attempts to get the correct docs out of Tesco (rebadged directline).

[RS-Steve]

Ha Ha Mine came 6 weeks late an in the wrong bloody colour!

I kid you not! i still have the paperwork ordering a BLUE 172 an it came silver 6 weeks late!

 

[ChrisM]

My V6 took 30 months to arrive.

Including a nice 4 month period where it was sitting in a depot at Dover cos the morons working in distribution or the Renaultsport division forgot to communicate with the dealership that it had been shipped!

4 months sitting in a delivery depot all on its own in the wet and cold. (It was December to March)

 

[telford_mike]

Dealer told me its be 13 or 14 weeks for mine. 7 weeks later there it was
