Spooky, you seem to take an interest in me!
I just have a very good memory and your Younger Topless Model was an eyecatching Introduce Yourself posting all i did was cut a paste your spec easy. Anyway i reckon from what you say it could be a Status 20 or maybe a 30 In Transit which would mean it is on a train from Tychy or at the holding area at Antwerp Verrebroek. Ben (Research) should have an estimted arrival in UK date as well as the status code so come back with that and we will see if it can be tied up with a ship (and you can then track it). The September schedules have just become available so ill put them up on Thursday. The only thing im not to sure on is if BiColour like skydomes causes a longer wait in production scheduling if you ask Research for the update it might well reveal.

Many thanks, yes I love writing attention grabbing stuff - at work I once wrote an e-mail with the heading 'six sentences and a funeral'. It's just that it is a brand new car, and my own specification, and the brand desirablity that has fuelled the flames of my antipication. I am not really bothered about 1st September collection as it is on a private plate and I have never been a fan of the bi-yearly plate change. Also I am keen on bringing it to AutoItalia in three weeks time which I now appreciate is looking remote. Again, many thanks for the kind offer - most gracious of you.

Ben has confirmed my A500C as fixed for production - about time - and will be built next week (6 - 10 Sept) and added it might sneak in this month since he has sales targets to meet. The 60 plate rush doesn't apply to me. So any idea which ship, Delaney?

As promised here is the latest schedule.
Thu 09 Sep GRANDE SICILIA ANTWERP Verrebroek was down for Wed 08 Fri 10 Sep GRANDE SCANDINAVIA SETUBAL Wed 15 Sep GRANDE COLONIA ANTWERP Verrebroek was down for Sun 12 Fri 17 Sep GRANDE NAPOLI ANTWERP Verrebroek was down for Wed 15 Fri 17 Sep GRANDE ELLADE SETUBAL Thu 23 Sep GRANDE ROMA ?? Sat 25 Sep GRANDE DETROIT ANTWERP Verrebroek was down for Mon 27 Sun 26 Sep GRANDE EUROPA ANTWERP Verrebroek was down for Fri 24 Wed 29 Sep GRANDE ITALIA ANTWERP Verrebroek Fri 01 Oct GRANDE MEDITERRANEO ITALY Fri 01 Oct GRANDE PORTOGALLO ANTWERP Verrebroek Fri 08 Oct GRAN BRETAGNA SETUBAL Fri 08 Oct GRANDE COLONIA ANTWERP Verrebroek
You will have noticed that GRANDE ANVERSA (down for Mon 13) has disappeared out of the schedule 3 in from Verrebroek in 4 days didn't ring as being correct. You will notice day changes showing on all the ANTWERP Verrebroek deliveries to almost the end of the month.
Exotoholic in respect of your 500C i assume that Ben can see a Status 16 Fixed for Production showing this will become a Status 20 Assigned once it has been built but Status codes do sometimes revert so watch out. If you ask Ben to contact you when he gets a Status 30 In Transit at it will then be moving from Tychy across Europe by train (although transporters can be used) up to the holding area at Verrebroek. It is normally around a week from production / gate release to Verrebroek as the vehicles are moved in large batches of which your vehicle is one so at Tychy they wait until they have a load to then move to Verrebroek and loke wise from Verrebroek there is a holding area for the Vessel assignment with lots of checks etc along the way this is a logistical masterpiece and very very costly opperation which is why there are delivery charges.
I would recon on either GRANDE NAPOLI (Fri 17) at the earliest but more likely GRANDE DETROIT?EUROPA. BUT wait for BEN to confirm the Status 30 befor getting to excited. Status 35 is when it is on the Vessel.

Thanks a lot, the wait continues. Of course Ben is keeping me updated but I couldn't tell him to update me weekly as it would have been sheer torture. I would certainly be very interested to know the sales figures for A500C, by colours ordered though.

Hi exoticaholic I would certainly be very interested to know the sales figures for A500C, by colours ordered though.
If you read my STATOHOLIC posts in http://www.abarthforum.co.uk/general-abarth/abarth-registration-data/ you will find anwers or if you want to know more please ask in that thread (or we could face the wrath of Admin for going off of thread) The A500C has been a bit of task!!!! By the way if you want to do something to take your mind off of your wait are you going to be doing the karting as your in a part of the world that you' be able to get to it and by the time we do it you would be able to show your brand new Abarth to all attending dont forget as at today there are currently less than 50 A500C's registered in the UK. Regards

Many thanks, I'm sure Research's Ben will update me as soon as he knows - he knows I'm keen on laying my hands on it - pronto. The last time was that he said it is set to be built next week, on 2nd September. Once I know latest status, I shall PM you. Exo-Ed
