Ordered today! We were told it would arrive in february, and if course we will wait until the new number plates before taking delivery.
Took a 2.0d manual with quite a few options, and got a bit mire that 7.5% discount. We did take the finance, after a lot of hesitating as we are more cash buyers than anything. Ultimately, we did take it because 1) it's reasonably easy to walk out of 2) it's pretty cheap considering the money we don't have to pay up front is kept in our offset mortgage and 3) the criteria that the finance company can 'lean' on the dealer/manufacturer in case of recurrent issue is pretty good. There's nothing worse that being ingored for a recurrent manufacturer problem ( I hope there isn't!!) after paying premium money.
So, now going to have to be patient for ~ 3 months :-)
/me starts biting nails!
