[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]On Friday I was actually within 100 metres of 3 M's ( the 2 dealers here are only 5 doors apart) so I can claim to have actually have seen one (demo not for sale at the boutique) and each dealer had one awaiting customer pick up. Oz actually only got these first ones two months after USA, Europe, Japan and probably Outer Mongolia for all I know. I suppose that means they are post strap lug fault production. This is getting old waiting though. My original order was six months ago.
