Hi, followed this forum with interest for months already. I ordered late September and was lucky with a build week 1. But since then there is no clarity on when I'll receive the car and I have started to look elsewhere.
Car is status 20 (build to be completed) for months already and the dealer is getting no information from the manufacturer, nor the UK country manager.

Mine was ordered end of September 2021......I get that 80x, 80 and all retail orders are being prioritised over lease/Motability and I get that, totally do but would be nice if they did it on a month by month basis or something....ie for Sept all retail and higher priced orders first, lease last.

Just worried retail orders received weeks or months after my lease one will get put first and i'll be left waiting for an unspecified time. Mine is currently estimated October 2022 of course and I am just hoping against hope that it might improve by a month or two.
Yes its good to see things are moving forward but i dont share the sentiment re lease vehicles, mine is private lease, its not linked to my job or anything else, all these orders retail or lease etc all have a customer waiting at the other end... my order was accepted by the factory 2 days after i ordered at the end of June, and has been prioritised down the list on several occasions only to be given a build date which was then put on hold due to Ukraine supply issues a week before build was due, after being told they were building based on order date, in order so to be potentially re-prioritised down the list is a bit of a joke...

Why JR1 is waiting im not sure but that's ridiculous....
Yeah I feel your pain, I was told mine was to be built now.....then the lease company sent the last delay with "no build slot available" as the reason....now I have no idea when it is to be built, just hoping it's in the next couple of months.

Hi All,

Finally received news my car is in country and should collect this weekend. I ordered on 2nd September. An IV60 with only a couple of packs. Seems like pot luck as was meant to be built week 52. Then was partly built in March and finished last week.

Good luck to those still waiting.

Emailed the dealer yesterday, and got a reply to say it's left the factory and is on its way!

Not sure how long that will take. I would have thought travel time would be a couple of days at most, but customs? No idea.

Transit might take also weeks. But every step will be closer to the pickup.
