The dealership is not the same thing as Suzuki. Suzuki is the importer. Unfortunately what the dealer has done is morally wrong but there's not much Suzuki can do about it. Best thing to do is get on the list with another reputable dealer and wait. I reckon if you are prepared to wait 12-18 months you should get one at list price.
Unfortunately Suzuki BCC at Bolton sold out to Chapelhouse which took out a competitor for the North west area.It may be worth trying Collin Appleyard in Ashton, however they also pre-registered all their Jimnys back in 2020 so I would assume they will be at it again with the commercial variant.
Suzuki gb do have one major sanction they can apply, revoke franchise. They won't, but if vag can dictate what a dealership is called and jlr can dictate the interior design of the showroom then Suzuki can get the dealers to charge in line with rrp.

they can get them charge rrp for new, but they cannot get them to sell them new to who Suzuki insist, that is down to the actual dealer.
Suzuki themselves messed this up in my opinion, All the way through suzuki told us dealers it will be a central order system meaning customers will contact suzuki themselves direct to buy the commercial, Now they changed their mind and just told dealers to sell them.
