Hi all,
I've been watching the forum for a bit but never posted before. I put a deposit down for an EV6 with a local dealer here in Ireland and was told the cars were due to arrive on a boat by the 15th October (today) and would be registered and ready for collection by customers by the end of the month.
I got a call today and the dealer told me the cars have arrived, but they have been told by Kia HQ that NO customer cars were to be registered until January. The cars are in the country, he has chassis numbers but they can only register one demo model per dealer and thats it. Customer cars are going to be held in storage until January.
I can't get my head around why they want to do this, and am not sure what recourse (if any) I have to get the car by the originally agreed date.
For various reasons to do with my own circumstances, waiting to January is not a good option for me and the fact that the ev6 was promised for delivery this month was a key factor in my decision (aside from it being a great car)
Anyone else in Ireland, the UK or elsewhere had similar issues?
