Order coming "EARLIER" now

[Kentviking]

I have just received an email from CS

My March '23 build order (prior to which it was a November build/December delivery) is now coming in February! ( ie. soon ! )

Either there have been a number of cancellations, or production is going well, or maybe both

But a rare piece of good news from Lotus CS for a change (though I am still contemplating a switch to McLaren)

I've just had an email confirming my i4 build has changed from September to October 23. Any more news like this and I'm out 😠

Same for me. Just told production February. I don’t know if this means I will have the car before or after new registration. No big deal, just pleased that things are looking better.

My V6 auto was scheduled for production in March '23 and I have just had the update today to say production in March '23! At least it hasn't slipped any further, I guess that are leaving that until nearer the time!

June has now moved to May. Just as well I didn't sort out that fixed term investment....
I am taking this as a positive though as it means I should have it in time for my birthday.
I'd suspect this is a result of a fair few cancellations (a hundred would do it I'd guess at current production rates) rather than discovering new efficiencies in production sadly.

Same here. My March build for an auto gearbox is now Feb.

Yes I have also had an email from cs , my car an automatic has been moved from April to march for production so good news, BUT I have just checked on compare the market car insurance website ( I check different sites quite regularly) and on the transmission drop down box it only has the manual no automatic, so is there still a problem with the auto approval 🙄 and is this the real reason for the delay.
