Not too sure if formal welcomes are allowed until ownership is proven with a picture!!! Welcome to the permagrin club in any case.
Don't forget to post a picture when she arrives.

Welcome to the D4 club and permagrin club as stated!! You'll love it and sounds like the perfect vehicle just what I would order, although I would add probably radar cruise and that's it.

But welcome and sounds like a great vehicle. Just the wait is so hard!!

If you would like to move to a proven vehicle, my d3 is available as a swap:-)

Yeap... definitely will post pictures.... on arrival... and the build. ~3.5 months... it's a long time!


I looked at the radar cruise (RRP $2,300) but decided that as it could not emergency brake the D4 to a stop... did not meet my cost/getting-out-of-the-poo ratio.


So, pondering the future build/fit-out is want I have now.

Jesse thats a heavy option price, i guess for me doing long distance highway kms it might be a worthy option but its still pretty up there and i cant see why they cant make it brake the car!!

I recently drove a new S class Mercedes S500 at the roadshow and wow the cruise in that is amazing the way it brakes the car to a full stop then a quick tap on the accelerator resumes it again and it steers as well just a gorgeous amazing machine!!

I agree with previous posts Nod. I ordered similar options except for electric column. As everyone says on here -It's just great to drive. The 3+months wait does go fast though! I've had mine for 6 months now after ordering it last Xmas Eve. Regards, David
