Soon to be new DS3 owner - how did you all cope?!

[jebrom]

Hello everyone,

I am a soon to be DS3 owner and am struggling with this whole waiting malarky! how did everyone cope? all i have been told by the dealer is that it could be up to a 3 month wait but they wont say anything more

I have gone for a 1.6 150 THP DSport in Sport Red with a Black roof and Chrome Wing mirrors and couldnt be more excited about getting it. For those that have got it, what is your fave feature of the DSport?

Can't wait to hear back

Jess

P.S. Did everyone get the "thanks for your order" and "what accessories do you want" emails at the same time?

Hi Jess + Welcome !

I Got The Emails At the Same Time About 3 Days After The Order Was Placed + You Should Get 2 More At Different Points In Your Waiting Time ( 1 To Say Its Left The Factory + 1 To Say Its Arrived In The UK ),

Waited 12 Weeks For Mine So Yeah That Sounds About Right,

But Dont Worry - Its Well Worth The Wait !

=D

[WTF]

Welcome!!

Yeah, I got the 'touch' brochure with my letter saying thank you for the order. Did make me wonder!

Welcome Jess, I ordered mine 4 weeks ago today, and the dealer said I should have it by the end of April, I hope I do lol

In the meantime, to make the time go even slower (As completely forgetting about it would make it go faster, and this is impossible to forget) try these

It should take around 8-9 weeks for delivery. 'Fave features' well there's a few! The exterior styling and all those looks you get. The LED's at the front which gives the car that signature feel. The steering wheel, which you'd normally get on more expensive marques. The pairing of the mobile phone so hands free phoning. Hi Fi system is ace, plays all your mp3's and downloaded Cd's. Love the arm rest and silver alloys. So far great car.
