My dealer has nothing. No information. Without even requesting, he offered a no-fuss full deposit refund (£500). I'm going to hang on for a while as I'm in no hurry. Our current car, which is 8 years old still feels fairly new, is 100% reliable. Maybe by the time it arrives the charging network in the UK will be a little more established and reliable. If it takes another 7-8 months, it's really not a problem for me. However, there is a chance that in the longer time frame there may be other better options, but nothing so far has made me change my mind.

Ordered car in November 21. Dealer has kept me updated monthly. Car still hasn't been accepted by the factory, so sounds like it hasn't even begun the build yet. I am now in month 6 of the wait. Glad to hear that production had resumed two weeks ago!

Happy to wait, despite being a little annoyed about the delay! Hoping to get it before the end of summer.

No deals or discounts being discussed - got a really good deal on it anyway and they have offered me a large sum for my trade in.

I would recommend to modify the poll in order to do it more useful as follows:

1.- To Split in two different polls. One reflecting people already have collected the car, with the different times. The other just with people waiting for. Then percentages will reflect more acurately impact of delays.
2.- Since the waiting lists are much longer than 6 months I would add extra waiting time frames like 6 to 9 months, 9 to 12 months and over 12 months.

Those changes I think will improve the visualization and impact of delays overall.

I don’t know if ‘Nick’ - the author of the poll - is still active on this forum. Not seen him commenting on anything for quite a while. I suppose only he can amend it, and there aren’t any moderators (because we’re all so well behaved and don’t need them 🤪!!)

A positive update at last from my dealer this morning, they are getting orders delivered at last. My car is built and he is awaiting news of when it will be shipped. He hopes he will have some more information within a couple of weeks. Hopefully not too long to go now!!

That’s great news. Out of interest how long was it between being accepted by the factory and being built. Trying to guess when I should expect some news. Hope your car arrives soon!

My order was accepted by the factory last November and given the second week of January to be built, it then went on the delayed list. Since then I've had regular updates saying nothing had changed. I thought it odd this morning when it was a video message from my dealer and sure enough it was good news. If it arrives end of May into June from ordering it will have been a just under 9 month wait.
