No , never go there, but I heard from within the ā€˜tradeā€™

Still almost on stop. :sunglasses: :frowning:

Yep, asked about a build date for my new car, the dealer hadnā€™t a clue :crazy: :astonished:

the next step is when they ask ā€œwho sirā€ when you callā€¦

I do have a piece of paper :slight_smile:

Lets hope history does not repeat itself, this guy had the 1st order for a british built 911

I have just had confirmation that production is returning to normal with effect from today :smiley:

Hopefully iā€™ll get a build date soon, once the dust is blown off the paperwork & overalls :slight_smile:

Tim , thatā€™s good news, :smiley: do you know , why production has started again ?& have they found some ā€˜newā€™ money ?? :slight_smile:

I think itā€™s just the end of the 60 (or was it 90) day hiatus or whatever thatā€™s required by Malasian law with the change of ownership at Proton??

Still no build date yet thoughā€¦

Yes, thatā€™s right - no cashflow (i.e. Proton paying the bills) during the handover period as all monies are frozen for a while.
