Dear Mr. Jones,

I am so sorry for the delay in delivering your order dated 9 May.

There are some problems in obtaining components for our Audi range from Germany.

The manufacturer promised to have the components ready in 2 weeks.

We will forward your order as soon as the components reached here.

Your understanding and patience would be greatly appreciated.

With my apologies once again.

Yours sincerely,

Susan Brown
