This isn't quite true.  The warranty *starts* when a dealer sells the
machine to a "customer."  Mont. Grant is NOT a dealer.  Therefore, the
warranty starts when Mont. Grant buys the machine from whoever it buys
it from.  (Usually a dealer who has too many and will take a loss to get rid
of a few.)  Then MG sells the machine to *you*.  Guess what?  You don't get
a warranty from Commodore.  MG has a warranty from Commodore, but that doesn't
do you much good.
