What is the general consensus on the accuracy of MB build dates and delivery times?
I have been given a build date of 14/02, with a delivery date of 12/03 and collection on 15/03. Does this sound fair enough? I've seen in a few places that from build to delivery at a UK dealership is usually around 10 working days, but I guess end Feb/early March is the busiest time of year, so a delay would be understandable.
With previous cars I have seen build dates come forward considerably, particularly with Audi, who built one of my old cars 3 weeks earlier than originally planned.
As this is my first experience of dealing with MB, I'd really appreciate some real world experiences of how your orders progressed, in comparison to the dates you were originally quoted at allocation.
