    I didn't actually pay a 2nd depost. (I did offer, but OPC Exeter said they weren't bothered). Just the 2k down, then the rest on pickup day.

    Re: Question to UK P owners ..

    Put my initial 3000 down in November last year.

    They want the rest of the 10% by this October. (when I spec the car). Car is to be delivered 1st March.

    Strangely, I was in the dealership the other day and the owner approached me and asked if I was bothered about having a 1st March delivery. Odd question! Having ordered a year in advance for that day. How could I not be bothered. odd!

    They are saying that the sooner i get my spec done the better. (For them or me?). So apparently if I can get it to them in August that would be better. (so they tell me!)

    Cheers!

    They want my 2nd deposit mid August for a November production and then for a pick up in the first week in Jan 06.

    I did'nt take a December delivery so I would have 06 on the log book..

    madadd you going for the 06 reg plate then , I was also tempted , plus the fact it gives P at the factory more time to sort out apparent teething probs ..

    Good Luck..

    Do the 06 plates differ from the 05 plates? I have a Jan 2005 build and it still has a 54 plate. Was told the numbers don't switch over into the 0x range until 1st of March.

    It will still be a 55 plate. He just means it will show as year 2006 registered on registration document.
