Factory Tour - Production watch!

[NickR]

If anyone is going on the tour from week beginning 23rd can you report on whether the factory has started production? This will give us our best estimate on when the car will finally arrive.

just thinking that also when we will we get to know exact delivery dates - Mine is supposedly July and I haven’t been asked where I would like car delivered to ? I don’t live near any dealers so correct arrangements need to be made I’ve even based my holiday aboard around this blumin car so I hope they give us more than 5 mins notice ! We’re all busy people

I suspect further delays. Hopefully not but it all seems a bit too quiet.

They should be in touch at least 30 days beforehand, to confirm expected delivery date and ask you about delivery location, financing, part ex, registration, paying the balance etc. So in theory early in June for the July delivery batch.

I think we are all holding our breath hoping and praying that we don't get moved forward another month or worse.

This has been the longest wait of my life but i'm sure it will be worth it.

Went on the tour on the 9th, lots of staff hanging around, supply chain delays the problem as mentioned on here previously

 

[TomE]

They’ve also been encouraging staff to take some leave now while they are delayed waiting on parts. Hopefully that means they can ramp up abs run at full output from July.

thats weird as I am July too, originally June, and I was asked in an email at least 4- 6 weeks ago where I would like to collect the car from, factory, agent or..... They said I can change my mind later, but the initial question should have been asked..... But again, until delivery date confirmed, doesnt really matter.....
Yes they need to be entering into production over the next 2 weeks or so, or else there wont be anybody receiving their car in July I'd say..... i'm 50% confident..

 

[TomE]

They asked a sample about delivery options so they could gauge interest in factory collection. They didn’t ask everyone and it was indicative rather than a firm decision.

I can wait but if they move the price up as well ...
