Sprint'n'Go

Coming back from Fareham this afternoon when I spotted a white, lwb, high roof Sprinter, roaming free in its natural environment (i.e - southbound on the fast lane of the M40). I know they are supposed to be launching them officialy on the 18th as I already have my personal invite to Enza in Manchester to join in the festivities (face painting and similar to keep us van drivers interested
) and take a spin. Has anyone else seen them out and about? I will be keeping my eyes peeled from now on. I only had a brief glimpse as I was northbound but it was enough to get my pulse racing, perhaps I need to get out more! Interestingly i didn't see any trade plates unless he had one on the dash so it must have been registered? Could a large fleet buyer have jumped the queue? or perhaps there has been a staggered earlier launch in some of the european countries?
Heres a question for you. I have always had a theory that you shouldn't rush out and buy the latest model when a new vehicle is launched but should wait 12 months so all the production problems can be sorted first. Is this sensible or just paranoia?
V6 Sprinter here I come.
