Question

Anyone know what areas the P1’s have been delivered to and where about’s they are now in the country??

I’m getting very impatient, as I’ve been waiting 7 months now!
My expected delivery date of mid to end of April has crashed & burned and now one can tell me a date.

Rob Barron.
I want my P1 NOW!

I understand the first ones in the country went to Aird Motors in Beauly (north of Inverness), and also some to the dealers in Forres. I know that Aberdeen has had two, and Perth 3, (both a few weeks after the first ones were delivered), but no others in Scotland as far as I know - just lots of people waiting....

You get covers for the fogs if you prefer with the P1 logo on.

I think most owners will go for a personal plate. The other guy at the same dealer as me did.

P11 WRX

Cool

Phil,

According to other threads on this subject each dealer will be getting 2 cars ASAP, so you could be in luck.

However, my order went in on 16th December and I have no idea when my car will get to my dealer - Lancaster Sevenoaks - so perhaps I'll be able to enjoy it by the end of the summer

P1 5UBU

No idea on delivery etc though.

Remember, to misrepresent your vehicle registraion on the public highway is an offence punishable with a fine of up to £1000!

John,

Out of interest how much did your plate cost? Mine was £650 -probably been done. As for misrepresentation, I didnt spend £650 for P15 UBR. Doesn't quite have the same effect.

Phil.

p.s. when did you order and from where?

spoke to my dealer this morning

still no word on my car although apparently another 6 have made it to scotland this week (2 to paisley, 2 to strathaven, 2 somewhere else?)

apparently ALL dealers are supposed to have two cars by the end of the month but we've heard this before, haven't we?

Phil,

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news - £250 direct from DVLA.

I also bought it for reasons other than P15!

Ordered car from Lavender Hill in Enfield in March. They have not had anything yet.

Could be a long wait.

Have you thought about contacting EVO Mag & see if they would like you added to their long-term test fleet.
Would be great to see a P1 status report every month...?

Still not had any news or a phone call.
