Ariel will bump people up the queue if a buyer gives up their place, I think Ariel prevent the selling of slots quite effectively, might seem unfair from the outside but it would quickly turn into a Porsche GT situation with cars only going to the richest folk who will overpay

The factory seem to work with buyers whose circumstances have changed over the years, so all come out happy.

Is Buying a Build Slot an Option?

Hi folks

Quick question if I may… and apologies if it’s an oft-discussed, or contentious issue.

If someone has had a change of fortunes and no longer wishes to progress with his / her new car build-slot (but doesn’t want to forego their deposit), then could someone else (I.e. me!) buy their place in the Queue?

Thanks.
