I was going to order my car from Ford in Campbelltown too but decided not to after speaking to the sales guy who wasn't too informative about the car and didn't even offer me to sit in one, said he'd show me what the premium sound was like but didn't, ohh well lost a sale didn't he.. ;)

I placed my order for an XR6NA Merc Sliver (the best color) somewhere else, the guy rings me the next day saying he has one with all that I want in stock but the only diference is that it has the back power windows option, because its going to be a fleet car I'm not allowed to grab anything but what I ordered which was a big shame, but anyway my car comes at the end of the month :D . I hope Ford Cambellotown don't mind me taking a car I didn't get from them serviced with them ( I'll just tell them they sold it to me B) ). I've seen a few T's in Campbelltown including one Merc Silver, 2 acid rush ones, and a few NAs too.

There is a Turbo in the yard there at Ford, its a Ute near the front next to the blood orange XR8, been there for a while too. :oohwoah:

They've had a few in the four months I've been waiting XRSICKT ... none optioned the way I wanted unfortunately.

The sales manager and I have an understanding, he doesn't bullsh*t to me, and I don't abuse him!

That reminds me, I must ring him and tell him where my car is ...

I'm having serious doubts about getting the car serviced there, after chatting with the service manager. Gave me the impression of being a bit dodgy brothers ... we'll see what sort of job they do on the options, etc.

Gotta go now, time to ring FPV and find out whether my baby shipped last night or not ... fingers crossed. :blush:

I sent an email to my dealer last night asking where my car is up to because I couldn't get any info off the Net using the SIDO number he gave me last week ( I just wanted an update). This morning I see a reply, He got it elivated for me so that it leaves factory today arriving to them by the end of the week and to me beginning of next week. :blush:

exactly as promissed too.. Where is this guy from? :alien: .. Couldn't be happier with the service...

Boys,

Soon....soon.

Now's the time to rest your hands (Ken at least) so that you have a bit of time to regain your strength for all that twisting and turning and pulling and pushing and knob fiddling (all with the vehicle controls you fool you fool) together with much jumping up and down and finding every possible excuse to go out in the car, and washing,.... bloody washing, crikey.....I've never washed a bloody car so much.........SHMBO thinks I've lost the plot (Though she secretly does love the car as well)

So there.......we'll brobably not hear from either of you once you get your birds, so rest up now.

I don't want to do this anymore ... I'm just not up to it!

My beautiful baby T is sitting in the Toll Transport yard in Melbourne and won't be on a truck until Friday! It was ready for transport last Friday.

I don't have the strength anymore ... I've abused FPV and told them that I will never buy a vehicle from them again. I've abused the dealer and told them that I will never buy a vehicle from them again.

I just can't believe that there is a process in place that warrants a 4+ month wait on a product ... local at that! It took all my strength to not tell the dealer that I wanted out of the deal, he could keep the deposit and the car and I would go elsewhere ... probably back to Mitsubishi.

I've had enough.

Naaa,

It's just a bit of a speed bump Ken.

A couple of fingers of Scotch and a bit of a lie down will soon ease the pain.

Guaranteed, it will all be worth it. Especially with that spec which I am extremely envious of.

Remember.........precioussss.........

Well that's customer service at its best :blink:

l would be pi$$ed off if l was you! The problem is they have you by the nads, what alternative to the T is there?

Ever heard of red wine? Drink copious amounts and another week wont seem as bad after all :lol:

Maybe its time to use those LOR magic powers Ken.
