Forgot to add we can't decide on the colour would like either Black Pearl or Pewter Grey. We have seen the Black Pearl
but not yet seen Pewter Grey, would love to but they seem thin on the ground. Perhaps a good photo would do or if any are near to Kendal could travel?
Pewter Grey looks better, but I'm biased
Pewter Grey in both dull uk weather and sunshine...

Hi Trix
Thanks for the photos, really good. I tried to rate them as 5 but would only score 2
Hope the photographer isn't upset, can't alter the rating.

That's not to bad, you ordered three days after me and i've been told week 46, mine you that was a couple of weeks ago, my salesman is on holiday and not back till next week so will get an update then. Were you told week 46 when you ordered.

That's very lucky to be honest - I ordered June 20th and have been fixed in week 44! Seems like the retailers in less popular, probably more rural/less affluent areas didn't use up their allocations as quickly.

Sorry can't help on that one. I apparently went from no date to confirmed in a week. Guess the dealer is one of those who doesn't give unconfirmed build dates.

Took delivery of mine today after ordering it early June. Worth the wait though although it's siting outside the office begging for a drive, roll on 5.30 !!

Did you order with any optional extras or just box standard?

Hi Brian
what a car to have as your first car!! the car will arrive at the dealers roughly 3-4 weeks after build is completed it may be slightly quicker or slower than this due to ships available at the time but that should give you an idea.
once it has arrived at the dealers they need to pdi it which doesn't take more than a few hours itself but if there is alot of demand at the time (ie close to the new plates being issued) it may be a few days before it can be done.
so in theory you could be driving your car by week 7 2010 but you will most likely be in a position to wait for a new **10 *** plate

Hey, I feel sorry for you and although my car hasnt arrived yet I am sure this car is worth the long wait...
I ordered mine at the same time as you but because before I even decided to go for this car, it has already been ordered by my dealer to sit in the showroom...hence all the sales had to do is to assign this car to a customer's order...and add all my options in of course!
Hope that we both get to see our Rocs soon!

Hi all. I'm still worried about the extra Vat due next year. My roc was an Oct slot but told it could be late Feb or early March (good 10 reg!) With the possibility of the extra VAT I have now paid in full to ensure 15%. Deadline is Dec 31st for that.

VAT is chargable at date and tax point, which is the date the invoice is raised, further guidance can be ontained from the publication section of HMRC
