Greetings to all !

Hi All,
Newbie here.

I have been a long-time lurker of the forum. I don't see too many Australians here.I have only recently decided to join as I have recently (within 12 months) showed an 'expression of interest' at my local AD for my first piece. I have sent a few emails and followed up with a couple of visits. I don't plan to ever sell any of my purchases and I hope that I have said and done everything right so far to convince them so. It's not a money making exercise for me. It's about owning a piece/pieces of mechanical marvels/artistry.
I am a patient man and will not entertain the grey market. There is only one AD local to me so unfortunately I am at their beck and call. My AD assures me that I am on the proverbial "list", but TIME WILL TELL.

Cheers All.

Welcome
Good luck with your wait hopefully not too long.
I waited for 5 years to get a Daytona and never got the call.
I then waited about 18 months and got the call for an Explorer.
So it can depend on what model you have requested and registered your interest.
