| Sounds like a lame excuse to me. I dont see why people bother making up stories like that. If it had got stuck under a bridge he would have known days ago as they drop them off at the dealers for PDI's a good 2-3 days in advance of customer collection. |

| Sounds like a poor excuse to me too. Sorry to point this out but the delay could be to repair some minor damage that happened during transit or similar. Just check the car over very carefully when you collect it.

The chances of one of these delivery drivers choosing a route that would run the risk of this sort of thing is minimal.they have a very strick threee strikes and your out system - wether there is damage to the vehciles being transported or not. My advice would be to get down there pronto and have a loook round,make sure the car isnt there, either being repaired or waiting for some part to be fitted thats been found during PDi - which are the two most likely outcomes. If there was a genuine delay they should have informed you before the actual delivery day -- not to do so is unforgivable in my book and quite frankly stinks

| Good idea, get down to the dealer and have a good look around before you go and say hello to the salesman. |
