New Jimny waiting list

It was a joke, Suzuki are blamed for everything else, why not for me forgetting my purse.
Just got home. One less person on the waiting list, dealer was faultless.

Many congratulations JodieMarie! . . hope you're having lotsa fun . . so let's see some pics please

Meanwhile, for the rest of us, this whole 'shortage of supply debacle' is completely deliberate on their part because they (Suzuki) would be in breach of their CO2 emissions commitments if they were to supply a Jimny to everyone who wants one. It's all about quotas these days. The customer has to decide whether to 'put up or shut up' . . . so far, I'm still putting up . . and it feels like being dangled by a thread :woohoo:

I am assured by my dealer (who is just as frustrated by the shortage!) that if it all becomes too much for me to bear, they will gladly return my deposit . . and I take them at their word.

Well done wigit. I have written to Nobuo Suyama, Takanori Suzuki (no family relation) and Junita Fernandez, Company Secretary, who are the three active Directors of Suzuki GB, at Steinbeck Crescent, Snelshall West, Milton Keynes MK4 4AE. I kept it formal and to the point, and referred to this forum for a selection of the answers people have had, and customer reactions.

I’m told delay is due to weather in Zebrugge, funny as car ferries still operate.

Entirely possible. We live in a world where we make things happen by ourselves.

Meanwhile, in The Real World Where Everything is Really Loads More Difficult Than People Not in The Job Think they likely have to wait for space on a car carrier, the one that should have taken them but couldn't because it was a bit windy has gone off to another job, and the rest are likely booked up.

"Mine" was supposedly due last week, haven't heard anything.........

One more Jimny on the road!

Heyyy...I never got a pussy cat with mine...

Woah! I can't believe you ran over that cat! :ohmy: :huh:

Even the cat is looking under it and thinking hmmm it could do with a bit of rust prevention under here!

And to think i gave up a white one. Very nice! Congrats.

Meanwhile in limbo land

Andy dont.....Just dont.

Just seen on my Facebook that botb have a Jimny as one of their 10 quid prizes. Might be worth a punt for a tenner?

Hay Lambert my friend, what do you make of the Skoda Karoq 4x4. I realise its a tad limp as a 4x4 in terms off off-roading, but as a car able to go down farm lanes?? The Scout 2l diesel looks good at least.

We very nearly had it's predecessor the yeti instead of the grand vitara. We were only put off by the VW emissions debacle.
