Sick of waiting

[Trialmaster]

I'm a little bit sick of waiting. I did order within the first 3 hours. However I don't expend nervous energy on things outside my control. So I accept it for what it is., part of the journey.

In that I agree!

Never been asked two days before, but I do realise this is what the contract says. Plus I have bought loads of vehicles over the last nearly 50 years of buying. A few listed here: https://rockenterprises.co.uk/vehicles/cars-past/

I'll take the 6R4 please.

What was the MG like?

Like the XV231 landing, wow.

Just had my email telling me to log in as my car is in production ( funny that as its sat at the dealer), they want to know how I intend to pay.
Bless !

Snap! Same here

Had two 6R4's - shame I didn't keep them! Fasted car I've ever owned, just adding a few more pictures of the past cars - all a bit silly!

Always used to see them down at the New Brighton rally, crazy fast! My uncle used to rally Opel Manta at the event. No longer held there anymore I think.

First batch of invoices went out yesterday.

wonder how many on here have paid and what they were told regarding collection.

It's all new but it shouldn't really take too long

Famous last words.

So long add the dealer has all the form's and compliance certificates to register in QLD, then it's about 3 days to have the car on the road. Any longer and your the horse being led to an empty dam! I would therefore expect collection within 5 business days of being asked to release full funds. I would hate to pay, then have a 2 month wait because the contact said they could... this surely won't be the case right?

Yep, you don't lose sleep nor worry about things you can't influence.

Including your partners temper?

This has always been the case for me with BMW when paying by card in the showroom, pay on the day no problem.

Is there any discussion between yourselves and Ineos to allow the payment by card on the day as an option?

how will the registration numbers be generated ? any time i buy a new car its registered via local dealership (starts with an s) are these getting registered locally or via some nationally generated number ?

I wondered that, I presume Ineos will register them all together somewhere so the letter will be the location they decide on. (all mine start with a P) The letter is based on where they are registered not where they are bought. The dealer always gave me the list of registrations he had been allocated and let the customer pick.

I think Ineos had cars registered on HF (Bournemouth) for the Scotland event. Others I recall were on a LJ (London Wimbledon) plate.

The London cars they may have done themselves, but I'd guess the Bournemouth ones are via one of the companies handling the vehicle movements dockside.

The Grimsby ones may come from Beverley, so YV, YW, YX, & YY.

The two Hard Way Home cars were LJ London & and WX Bristol ~ which both reflect, pretty much, where the winners live in terms of local DVLA office.

I understand within a very short period of time the Sales Agents themselves will be dealing with the actual vehicle registrations.

Meantime a copy of the Pre Delivery Inspection (PDI) process:-

Are we doing typos...

Excellent doc ~ thanks for sharing.

I wonder if this can be printed out A0 size and made into a paper model?
