Ours is down for a May/June build, hoping to get a firm date soon so
Hopefully Mountune will be able to provide some good figures but retain the Ford warranty and not cost the earth of course.

Yea I'd be worried about killing the 4WD system with slapping that much extra torque on it. Big repair bill if that goes wrong!

Yep... I did read Mountune have had a car from the end of last year.... Not that it will need more power, but I'd wait for them and go "official"

Lucky, I've been told August/September after ordering at the start of October last year

Basically don't believe what the dealer is telling you, Vista (the dealer system) can only be relied upon when when they have a predicted build date. Check with your dealer for the order number, if it starts with a J (which seems likely if you don't have a proper build date) then you can look to expect it a bit sooner than September.
I need to chase my dealer again for the Ford order number.... as they haven't shared that with me yet!!!.... Anyway I'm told/expect it to be Feb17.... I wouldn't want it to arrive till the end of the year anyway...

Wooo picking up tomorrow
You must be one of the first in the country.
Saw my first RS out on the roads last night, loitering at Tescos in Widnes.
Thought the owner would have been more interested in driving it than being sat in a car park
<stereotype mode> maybe just resting having lapped the car park a few times, impressing dem bitches. </stereotype mode>

My Fiesta ST is at my local Ford dealer having the MP215 upgrade fitted today, whilst there I noticed that they have their first RS waiting to be picked up later today. Looks even better than I thought from seeing pictures of it although my suggestion that I borrow it for the day wasn't successful (I'm sure the owner wouldn't mind me "testing" it for them 
).

Tease
e: Oh wait, it wasn't actually your car you were picking up. Now I feel even more cheated

That's pretty much where cars like that spend 99% of their time if it's anything like my local Tesco

"I see you have your demo, when can we come & drive it?"
Hartwell Ford Kidlington.
It may help that we have had an order in since October but a number of Ford Stores now have their demo cars. I have better things to do than BS about something so trivial....
