Hi all

Just wanted to know from those who have ordered new cars in the past whether the initial delivery date given was accurate or whether you received delivery early or later than stated?

From the blogs I have read so far it looks like delivery is between 3 and 5 months after ordering. I placed an order on 11th Sept with an estimated delivery date of April 2015 which is closer to 7 months lead time. Maybe the lead time is seasonal?

Thanks in advance...

Pretty sure lead times over the winter/spring can be a little longer sometimes as they need to get the race cars out in time for the season (e.g. 56 new Academy cars) which might explain why yours is 7 months.
Ah yes of course that would indeed make sense. with 10 cars produced a week that would add on at least 5-6 weeks. Thanks for the info.
