Any recommendations on how to sell a January/ February x3 build slot? Still time to change spec I think.

With the long waiting list the dealer should buy it back off you.

Call the LSE they might start a tradeable index in F25 build slots so you can jump the wait time

Not sure what you mean by this? Do you want to trade your Jan/Feb build slot because you need to change your spec? You should be able to make changes up until about 2 weeks before it enters production

I don't think it's yours to sell. Even if you found someone willing to pay for a 5 month wait, you only have a contract to buy the car. You can cancel it and lose the deposit or pay on delivery

Hi all, just found his site wish I'd found it sooner.

Ordered mine mid march, rough estimate for late September delivery, September came and went and was advised a week 48 delivery.

Out of the blue on Friday got a call from the dealer to say it had arrived, so only a couple of days to go!

It's been a long time waiting!!

Congratulations on your order Gossy and welcome to the forum. Finding it late probably saved you some money in extra options!! Post some pics when you pick up. Enjoy
