Dealership promised to expedite the order as I was out of a car (see fire thread). Just shows what can be done.

It just shows what can be done! It's decent that they have worked with you to get you moving. Though, I expect they were highly motivated to make amends.

I ordered on Tuesday and my paperwork shows 30/09/2016 for expected delivery. They really pulled that one out of the bag for you!

Just go onto the bow.co.uk site, start up a configuration and a genius window will pop up.
