12 months plus is the norm for the diesel as they are the most popular engine
due to fuel costs,if you want a petrol and their arent many on the road its around 6 months delivery plus, with my local dealer

if i was prepared to drive to the other end of the country i could of ordered one with a delivery of 9 months.

it also is down to car alocation numbers to the dealers

the only advantage is the residuals stay very high, my friend was offered £2000 more than he payed for a 1 month old car by the dealer he ordered the car from

3 year old cars with sensible milage and the right spec are only loosing about
£10,000
