Sub Date Availability At London, UK AD’s?

Does anyone have any recent experience with AD wait times for Sub Date in London or wider UK?

How long should I expect to wait if I go down the AD route?

Thank you.

Was in my AD yesterday in the midlands and a chap entered enquiring about a Sub Date and was told 2-3 years for a black and 3-4 years for a green. When he asked what he could buy instead he was told a Tudor.

If you build a great relationship with a local AD, I think you should have it within 6 months.

I have a strong relationship with my ad and got one in 3 days but it’s certainly taking longer to get a hulk though!

Depends, are you a flipper? Or rather can you convince an AD that you’re not?
