Can I asked who installed the Zappi and are you getting the grant? I ordered my IV60 at the end of Oct and the paper work has a delivery date of June. When I rang one installer he said they could only be installed within 4 months of the delivery date in order to get the grant. I asked the dealer if he could knock me up a letter stating a April delivery date but he didn't appear to want help. With the grant ending in March I wasn't sure if I'd end up qualifying but you're not the first who seems to have it installed well ahead of a delivery date. Maybe you haven't bothered with the grant though in which case the limitation wouldn't apply. Or maybe I need to try your installer!
As I understand it the only proof that is needed for the installer to receive the grant from the government is a proof of purchase and a copy of the order from your dealer order will suffice. I know that you want a Zappi, but I had a Sync EV charge point installed late last year and I have not received a delivery date for the EV.

Cheers Ian - I’ll have to try the installer again and if they insist on 4 month thing I’ll try some others. These guys were recommended.

Stratford Energy Solutions installed it for me (based in Stratford upon Avon). They took copies of my paperwork/till receipt for the deposit so they could get the grant for me.

I think they're quite busy now with all the car sales (all the installers). We had to wait about 5 weeks. The irony is we now have to use our granny charger on our plug in Prius for at least the next 6 months :cry:

If Zappi isn’t a must have, I used the Sync EV website to complete an easy online survey, uploading photos of where I wanted the charge point located, the consumer unit, the meter box and mani fuse, together with one of the earth bonding. The quote was received from Mr Charger, Sync EV's local installer within 2 days and the installation was set for a week and a day later.

The installation is neat and tidy, and the whole process was efficient and pain-free.

This is indeed correct. I had a Zappi installed on 8th Dec and all I had to provide the installers was a copy of the order form.

For those of you twiddling your thumbs waiting for your Enyaq, I set up a countdown as my home page in the browser
https://www.timeanddate.com/countdown/g ... sive&csz=1

Just edit the 20220131 to the expected date. I'm sure there are better ones.

I needed something to give me hope during the wait.

My wife has an Enyaq 80 on order that she's just been told now wont get until May, originally ordered in July last year with expected delivery in October. Seems to be getting put back and back each week.

Had the DC fast charging, Family pack and electric towbar as options, she'ss going to ring the lease company next week to try and find out what's going on.

With the DC fast charging being standard now should she be having that removed from the options?

Interesting, ordered ours 4th October . Wonder if we are far behind, going to not bother them until next month. Any contact beforehand would be a bonus
Hope
I’m not far behind yourself I ordered the 16th oct .

When did you order?

Been reading this since early Sept when I placed my order - it’s been really useful.

Was given a build week of 45 then told it was built on 23 Dec. Today it reached the UK my dealer said! Hoping to pick it up in the next couple of weeks. I have my private reg on hold at DVLA as I part exchanged my BMW i3 at the time of order.
