I will be going to a dealer tomorrow to order a black Trailhawk.
I have been told delivery will be in late October or early November.

Congratulations. What options are planning on getting?

Good choice in color although it will be a bit of a PITA to maintain, but if you're willing to put the work in... it'll be really worth it!

In for pictures when you take delivery.

Thanks guys. I think I am getting everything other than the hole in the roof.
No hood decal Or the split seat option.

I live in Scotland. Our version of dust is called mud.
My current car is black and looks okay even when a bit dirty.

I have black. My first car was a black Mustang back in high school and it was sharp...for the first 20 minutes after washing it. 5 minutes after that? Layers of dust, water spots, smudges were visible everywhere. I swore that I'd never, ever own a black vehicle again, but couldn't resist with the Renny.

So far, it actually hasn't been too bad. It can handle rain without leaving water spots everywhere. The only time it looks dirty is when I've gone on a dirt road, but other than that, it's been fairly low maintenance.

Then, too, maintaining a black sports car is one thing, and a black Jeep is another. At the end of the day, a dusty and dirty Trailhawk probably isn't such a bad thing.

How did my post replying to your post get above your post?

Congrats!

Did they let you order the parking pack? I've been told it's not yet available as parking assist isn't yet "working". Instead they offered the parking camera and blindspot detector for £200 less. Is that the same for you or was nothing said?

It might be worth double checking?

 

[syzygy]

They never said anything. I was told they were putting the order through yesterday and I have heard nothing from them since.

 

[syzygy]

Did your dealer place the order then find out later that was not available, or was he not able to place the order at all?

 

[Adi]

I've not placed my order yet, but when I was getting my finance quote he "mentioned" that the parking pack wouldn't be the parking pack ...

I will try to phone the dealer tomorrow to see if the order went through.

Dealer has just phoned saying the offer is the same as yours Adi.
No parking assist or front sensors for £590.

Yep, I had the same in a Cardiff dealership, no parking pack........until Spetember. I'm still waiting on a response from them about side bars - cited in the brochure as available but can't find them anywhere on their pricing

 

[syzygy]

Just phoned the dealer to ask for a colour change to carbon black. Hope its not too late

That's the first time I've seen a time scale for when the full Parking Pack will be available. I do hope so as that's what I'm waiting for before ordering
