Not sure if it's a record yet but I originally ordered my Tdi 170 Roc on 03/07/2009 and am due to pick the car up on 03/12/09....... 6 months!!!! Have just about managed to keep my sanity 'JUST'. 1st introduction is a drive straight from the dealership in Newbury up to Scotland for a wedding this weekend and the fabulous roads around Loch Lommond.
Will post pics on collection day.
Waiting......... Nearly over!!!

Hi
You're lucky. I ordered pretty well the same spec Roc on the same day and I'm still waiting. It has at least been built but is sitting at the docks in Portugal.

Hi HH,
I'll keep an eye out on the site for photo's when yours comes in as I was very very tempted to go for the Rising Blue too. Hope yours is shipped soon!! I've been pretty much car-less for 6 months (running around in the wife's Mini) and the petrol head in me has been crying out to fill the gap left by my BMW 120d M-Sport...... surprisingly fantastic car. Can't wait for the Roc. To say I'm excited would be an understatement.

Re: Waiting......... Nearly over!!!
I ordered mine end of June and I'm still waiting! I have a build week of early December but thats unconfirmed. By the time I get my car it will have been at least a 7 month wait.Roc-on wrote:Not sure if it's a record yet but I originally ordered my Tdi 170 Roc on 03/07/2009 and am due to pick the car up on 03/12/09....... 6 months!!!!
