Hello all,
Ordered a new CLA at my local dealership in a specific colour where they found one in stock. Was called a few days later to be told that one car was no longer available. I guess this colour in particular is quite uncommon as I also could not find any used ones nationwide.
I asked whether they would build a new one in that specific colour and they said it was just a case of waiting to see what Mercedes HQ sends them each month. They said there was no point requesting that they build it as that could take longer.
Separately I was in touch with two other dealerships via Carwow who gave conflicting info and offered me much better discounts. They both said they had build slots allowing for a March delivery. I was reluctant to go with these as they are quite far away and I would not be able to speak to them face to face to discuss the details or part exchange. My local dealership said they were probably lying about the build slots.
Can someone please help me clarify who is giving the correct info here?
