OK....so we've all seen and commented on the thread advising that 10 P1's were spotted on a transporter heading somewhere around Derby....now the question are "where are they now?....where did they go?....who's got them?....and more to the point...where are the rest of them??????

Ditto to that. The worrying thing is I'm getting used to driving a beat up Astra and thinking is it really a good idea to fork out £31500 on a piece of metal on 4 wheels!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Was in my dealer's (Fenny Compton Warwickshire))last saturday and they has two P1's ready for collection. Looked great - wheels look a lot better than pictures I'd seen. Salesman said he could probably source one if I wanted, but seeing as I've only had mine for 6 months, and I need four doors, decided against.

There's one around the corner from my work, here in (hot & sunny) Aberdeen. It seems to have been sourced from F F F F Fiskens of F F F F Forfar (excuse the s s s stutter). I think I first saw it last Wednesday (26th). And very nice it looks too, except for the teeny weeny spots, which look daft (IMHO of course, as a non-Scooby driver).

Not got mine either.....
Despite putting the order in on the day they were announced as well....
I'm reasonably hopeful of the next two weeks or so given that they seem to be making their way out to dealers now, but I guess it just depends where my dealer is in the queue...

Wouldn't it be interesting to keep a tab on:
a)How many of us on the BBS are waiting for their P1
b)When it was ordered
c)When they are delivered
d)From which dealer
any comments?

Called my dealer this afternoon to see if he had any news.
But alas – BUGGER all news
and still can’t give me a date either.
But what he did say is that they normally don’t get a call to say when they are being delivered, they just turn up.
I to like Cameron have had one on order since they were first announced – still I’m glad I didn’t have to put a deposit down. Just think of all the interest the dealers must be collating from the people that have put down deposits.
Looking forward to another week of waiting for a phone call to say my P1’s arrived – NOT

Mines coming from Adams in Aylesbury. They are dropping two off there, so onwards to a nearby dealer ?. From what Ive heard they are concentrating on getting each dealer two. So if your in the top two at your dealers, it should be soon. Loads more spoilers to fit next week !. After that ?
My dealer doesnt know when they will get the next lot.

My dealer also states that they don't get any prior warning of deliveries, they just turn up on a transporter out of the blue. If I treated my clients like this I wouldn't be in business very long. How did Subaru do so well in the J.D.Power surveys?

I agree with Phil....
Spoke to my dealer yesterday afternoon - he thought by the 15th!!! I don't think its the dealers fault - like you have all stated Subaru seem to just deliver.
It would benice tho if Subaru kept everyone a little more informed...
Maybe give people a set date - at least we'd all know what was happening then.
Phil - re your comments about finding out how people are waiting - maybe we should start a thread??!!
In fact I might just do that now

Yer quite right, Hawco had two P1s, both sold but further north in Beauly(my dealer),Aird Motors have sold their two and await arrival of a further two. Sadly none are staying in the area. FURTHEST NORTH SO FAR!
