The Final Straw

[DSLiverpool]

Last tuesday I paid my deposit of £10k the first time I had visited the dealer! I signed up as the car was physically in the Speke compound.
It went from Speke to Warrington on thursday (!) and before the valet they noticed a wheel had been damaged (not the tyre the wheel) so on friday they put in a warranty claim for a wheel and think there are some in the country. I was astonished that they dont take one from another car (they have lots of Mustangs at Warrington) but its not Ford policy.
So I have no delivery date although the car is at Warrington we are now waiting on a claim and then the parts may not be available.
90% of me says to cancel the order there are loads of Mustangs about just not in DIB.

What would you do ? - remember this is a January 2015 order

Parts for the Mustang in the UK have been absolutely awful to get hold of. Someone crashed into the back of me in December and i was without the car for 7 weeks whilst they fannied around ordering a new bumper and a few other bits...

I havent got it yet! I told them today tuesday or shove it. Would MB do this? no they would 1, have a wheel on demand or 2, take one off a car!

They won't release it probably because I put the fear of God into them regarding the prep.
Also it needs tracking and I won't take it without this report also it's pissing down here today so no point.
