UK Dealers were specifically instructed by Suzuki NOT to take any deposits because Suzuki are are not taking orders, they are simply allocating what they have based on last years sales by the dealer, Some dealers however have decided their own rules.

I remember paying a £200 refundable deposit but the receipt print-out was an excel spreadsheet thing and refered to the used car department. I can't see any harm in that.

I think there maybe is less of an allocation than expected. I have been offered one, as I said, I'm at the top of the list with the dealership I registered an interest with. The one that they offered me wasn't what I was looking for and the ability to do a dealer exchange didn't amount to anything.
This left me wondering, if the allocation is short and they only get one rather than two per quarter, could they simply swap the car I declined for the demonstrator they are next allocated if that spec matches what I'm looking for?
I do think Suzuki should be upping their game with car allocation and customer expectations, the main reason most folks buy a new car is that you can pick the specification and colour you want. The take it or leave it attitude is not doing them any favours..
I agree its not doing them any favours in the eu market right now, but remember they are not really fussed about the eu market right now as its a small drop of their sales compared to worldwide
Yes its frustrating but they are doing whats best for Suzuki.
