Greetings from Finland! I decided to join here while waiting my Up! White for delivery. I went to order one last week and it came out they have one with the specs already at the port available. Said it would take max 2 weeks to get it. What a joy! It has the panorama roof I wasn't planning on taking but the dealer promised me a discount on it so what the heck. Maybe it's a good idea to buy your car from a good friend of your colleaque, at least the service is exemplary...

Now the horrible waiting... Maybe next week...

Waiting? Two weeks? Pah!
Only joking, you are sooooooooo lucky.
Make sure you post some pictures when it arrives

Yeah, I got lucky with having one ready at the port. But I have been thinking of ordering one for more than 2 months.

Congratulations, that's so lucky for you, only 2 weeks to wait.

Looking forward to seeing the pictures when you've collected it

My up! will now also get Webasto gasoline heater installed before the winter. Expensive piece of kit but there is nothing nicer than go straight to a warm car when its -25C outside. Especially after a night shift...

Whoot!? Pick up day next tuesday! Wohoo! How can I handle the weekend and my night shift on monday?

 

[bugbabe34]

Yes, what a long wait! How will you cope?

mine came yesterday but because they got it all wrong on the order i now have to wait ...6 to 8 weeks again

late August and then wait till 1st september...

AAAHHHHHAAAAAAA

 

[Ackwell]

I actually feel sorry for being so lucky with my order.

But pick-up is tomorrow morning. I will make a straight away 250km country trip to my mother's place to try it out. Still couple days left of my first summer vacation so I might as well do so. Will post pictures if the weather is nice.

 

[bugbabe34]

Bet you are excited. Wish it was me, you lucky thing

 

[clowesa]

I can't believe you've got yours so fast, you really have been very lucky. Hope you love the car and have a great journey tomorrow

 

[Ackwell]

And here it is! At my mother's yard. Had to do a little sight seeing tour right away. Clocked 580km in two days. Runs like a dream.

same as mine! looking good, including the interesting entamalogical collection on the front bumper....you must have big flys in finland!

 

[Ackwell]

Yeah, keeping the front bumper and windshield clean is a nightmare
