convertible help?
Options
Hi
I finally decided on a new car - Mitsubishi Colt CZC2 convertible - and put a small deposit down yesterday. Today, the dealership phoned to say that there are none left in the colour I asked (silver) and will refund the deposit. Naturally, I am disappointed (& wished they had checked that before I left thinking that I had a new car at a decent price. Including scrappage allowance it was just over £9K).
Anyway, c'est la vie, but I would still like a convertible - any advice on any convertibles that I could consider??? Am back to square 1 again!
Thanks:beer:

A Colt in another colour if the deal was that good.Hi, we’ve had to remove your signature. If you’re not sure why please read the forum rules or email the forum team if you’re still unsure - MSE ForumTeam0

That looks like a very nice car, I think you should be able to find another one somewhere. I think there's a website that finds the car you're looking for at the best price.

I just had the same problem with my new car. Ordered a toyota hilux in island blue only to be called up a few days later and told it wasn't available. Due to the credit crunch they are only taking a certain amount of models and when they are all gone then they order up a new batch so there was only black or silver left. They didn;t cancel th order though, just told me to pick a new colour.0
