Understand your keenness for the car, and the way you're avoiding the wait.

You've obviously thought about the decision, and have done your best to limit harm to your car. BUT.............

To expect a demo to be "looked after", either by sales guys or the customers they are servicing, is a bit "trusting". Neither have an interest whatsoever in protecting your interests. SA's job is to get the next order in. Customers job is to push the car as much as allowed. If it means Cozza is allowed to push the boundaries of the drive in order to clinch the deal, they will.

The SA will be your best mate to get the deal done. And genuinely so. The problem is, they will also be the next customer's best mate, and so on. Once you've bought the car, you become a bit like the ex-girlfriend. Calls will become less frequent, no more dates, eventually your name is deleted from the address book.

Do yourself a favour and get possession of the car ASAP. Otherwise, offer a few of grand (if you have it) to get it off the road ASAP. Final option is bit the bullet and wait for your own to arrive. The increase LCT will "only" add about 6 grand. That means you could offer 4 grand to get it off the road, and still be in front (again, understand if the extra dough pushes you over the limit).

Not meaning to criticise, just want to help you look after your interests. Agree you should confront them about it, with our backing!
