Thanks, Arif - shame I have to wait another 4 weeks to be able to use it properly :shock:

Good news, Spook! Is that a positive movement from your last build date given to you by the OPC? :)

They are definitely trying to move them more quickly. My build date was 12 Jan delivered to OPC 8 Feb so if yours follows suit, Spook you could be picking it up end of March. Here's hoping for you.

Wing Commander that is the 1st actual date I have been given previously in January I was advised that it will be an end March/ April delivery, and hopefully VanB it might arrive early :D :D

2nd best news i've had this week, I sacked my solicitor (house sale/purchase) on Monday, now thats back on track after
instructing a new legal firm.

I've just messaged my approved Gtechniq detailer Adam at www.finestdetail.co.uk (Huddersfield) with the latest info, he works well with my SE at Wilmslow, they will talk between themselves and it'll be sorted out at the OPC before I pick up.

Going for Crystal Serum Ultra this time topped with Exo and i'm going to get a price for PPF for the front only. I did see a 2014 911 at Nottingham OPC about 3 months ago that had had full PPF from new and it was in incredible condition.

Yes, I know Exo does need reapplying after a length of time but with my Macan Adam advised me to stop using snow foam and just use a diluted Gwash instead as a prewash.

I’m probably going to build my hopes up here only for them to be cruelly smashed to pieces, but all this talk of early deliveries is getting me excited.
If I have a build (or completion date) of the 20th of April and an OPC collection slated for May, how likely am I too see a new model in the Porsche line up delivered early?
Damn these threads!

Very unlikely for a new model I would think. I'd heard that the factories were ramping up production where they could for existing models to fulfil orders asap prior to the shutdown.

Am very pleased for you, Spook! :) My build completion date is quoted as 20th March, so my car may be going through the factory shortly after yours. They could conceivably even end up on the same ship...!? :)

Spook - have you used this detailer before? If so, can you share his details with me please as I'm thinking of getting mine done too.

Thanks
