We started to engage with Tartaruga, the distributor of Bimobil in Switzerland, in March 2021. A visit in late March with a close inspection of the EX 366 display model confirmed that this was the "right compromise" to fulfill our dreams. We then agreed on a face-to-face meeting in April to define the requirements. A few email exchanges later we confirmed the purchase intention and the contract was signed in May 2021. Target delivery is expected for around January 2023, a bit more than 18 months later. We were lucky as we managed to secure an existing build slot as normally, as of May 2021, the delivery waiting period would have been around 30 or more months!
We are waiting, counting the days, building a list of changes ... which we can communicate all in one go latest by January 2022 before no further changes are permitted ahead of the build.
