Here is my tale of sadness. Part of an email I sent to Ford customer relations.

As yet I have had no response to my message from yesterday. So here it is again. I live in country NSW and ordered my XR6 Turbo through my local dealer for obvious reasons. This order was placed in early September and I was informed by my dealer yesterday that if I see my car before March 03 it will be a miracle. This is bloody rediculous. It will be 7 months from the time it was ordered until I get my car. What makes it even worse is I know for a fact that other people have ordered the same vehicle from different dealers after me and will take delivery long before mine even hits the productionn line. What a joke. I understand that this is a new model, hugely popular etc., but 7 months is crazy. On top of 7 months I will also be slugged with a 2% pice increase. I am kicking myself for not going through a large city dealer, maybe one owned by Ford. I think if I had done that I would not be in this situation. Another case of the country being left behind? I was quite happy and was expecting to wait a while for such a great car, but not bloody 7 months. I love my fords and want to stick with them, but Ford don't make it easy.

In addition to this I rang everywhere from Sydney to Melbourne yesterday and every dealer is now saying Feb/Mar 03. To be expected. If I wanted my car then I would be ordering now. Whilst I wait and twiddle my thumbs the km's on my trade in go up and the value goes down.

One seriously PISSED OFF Ford Fan :angry:

Just spoken to my dealer, now he tells me that he ordered beginning of Oct. Still that will make it a 6 month wait.

As to why it will take so long, dealer said they are only small and as a result only have a small allocation? They have not even been given an expected delivery date. Just sometime after Feb. 03.

Don't really understand why the hell it will take so long.
