Thread: D4 delivery delayed again

    Angry D4 delivery delayed again

    I ordered my D4 on the 24th May and was promised delivery in late September early October, after numerous follow up enquiries the date has changed several times since and is now a "possible" date in early January 2011. I have also had a new caravan built to fit with the origonal dates,it has arrived early with nowhere to go. I know you will say its all worth waiting for but I'm getting quite frustrated with it all and in hindsight wouldnt have bothered. I'm also interested if there is a 1st rate service agent close to Albury NSW as the local dealer is fast becoming a dealer with no creditability for sales / service.

    If it's any consolation, I'm sure we can find someone to iron out any bugs in your new caravan.




    Just trying to help.






    Honest.

    D4

    I ordered my D4 28 April and it arrived in Australia Sept 3 and I received it late Sept, so your wait seems odd. I ordered it with a few options like rear e-diff so that was reason for the delay I believe.

    Welcome Lanesend,
    Yes i understand your frustration. I see it daily.
    I would take it as a guess that you have ordered a 3.0 HSE variant?
    I also undertand from the factory that there has been a delay on all HSE variants-Worldwide.
    If it is another variant, Then there has been delays, but admittantly not that long.
    I ordered mine in Early Sept 09 & received it in mid March 10'.

    It will be worth it, So go read the brochure again

    Cheers.

    Ordered my HSE in early May. Was told that I was "lucky" that LRA "Picked up the order" and slotted it into an August Build. Should be here end of next week I am told. Hope I really am lucky!!

    Thanks Pete, but I'm waiting for a stock standard 2.7 White/Arabica Leather with gps / reversing camera. My main issue is the value of my trade in, a Ford Territory purchased from the same dealer 1 year ago and loosing $$$$ every day and as dealers go they just don't care.

    What a pain! I purchased a white 2.7 with ebony leather at the end of July - it is on the boat now and due in at the dealers in about a month (mid November)

    Lanesend,

    There lies the answer, This is why the delay.
    It is mainly the Camera system's because of availability.
    The manufacturer cannot supply enough to meet demand!!!

    I promise the wait will be worth it....

    Cheers.

    p.s. an after thought, maybe approach the dealer about pre-trading & see if they can offer a vehicle for the time being...Even a 2nd handy to run around in?
