If it does get here end of june thats 9months wait!
Might be time to start looking more closely at the amarok maybe..


Wow. I ordered mine on the 28th of feb. salesman rang me yesterday and said it will arrive at dealership on 28th of April. Allow 7 days for fitting of bar work and other accessories then pick it up


Sounds like im getting shafted by my dealer then, what dealer was that through?


Jacob Toyota in Wodonga VIC. Only problem is its a 3.5 hour drive to pick it up ;). Bought it from them when on holidays at Yarrawonga. Salesman was great, country boy who loved fishing, set my son up with some rigs and places to fish. VERY happy with his attitude and service compared to any of the 6 Melbourne dealers I went to. Oh, by the way, they were the only dealer with a demo model to test drive.

Just noticed my car is now in production.
Paid deposit late Dec.
Estimated delivery date is 9 May 2012.
Which is great... But I'm overseas for work/pleasure and won't get my car until the end of May.

AT LAST :D
After nearly six months finally picked it up yesterday and must say the wait although very frustrating was well and truly worth it.

Unfortunately I was in the same predicament, I ordered mine in Nov 11 and it landed in Mar 12, however it seems your order is being dragged on !!
