A while back I posted to this board that I had decided to get a Yeti.

My Lease Car Manager got the approval of the Directors; the lease company (very big and reputable) have the money burning a hole in their pockets. (The scheme is a Local Government Lease Car Scheme.)

However, my Yeti has not been ordered by the Dealer. They seem reluctant to do business with the Lease Company. This is the first time that my Lease Car Manager has ever come across this; the dealer is sitting on the fence and will not commit either way.

Two weeks down the line the lease company will now give up on this dealer and will approach another.

I am sure I will get my Yeti eventually, however my current lease runs out the first week of July, this 2 week delay will be cutting it fine.

I am totally un-impressed with the Dealer. When I went for the test drive, the sales representative showed a distinct lack of interest in me when I explained that It would be a lease car, but I did explain that the order would be placed through the dealership. They must be doing so well that they can afford to pick and choose who they supply cars to!

They are now going to lose the sale.

I really hope that I can get confirmation soon that my Yeti is definitely on its way. I have never felt this excited about a car before!

Fingers crossed.

Mine was a lease car through Lomabrd - it's been an 8 week wait, and i was told due to their 'buying position' that the dealer would priortise. Turned out to be complete bull****. It will now be 12 weeks before i see my Yeti.

It's been so long now, that i've started to lose interest and wish i'd paid the extra and got an XC60 from stock.

As a private buyer (opt out of car scheme) I'm glad there was no queue jumping !

I am most happy to wait my turn; I just wish that the dealer would pull their finger out and make a commitment to the deal.

My car should have been a confirmed order by now.

I will hopefully get some news next week.
