CassieFly - what you have described above was the same for me - it 2 weeks from the factory to the dealer - I'm guessing they were waiting to fill the transporter before driving down to the South West. I picked mine up 2 weeks ago exactly the same spec that you have ordered!After reading your comments I'm hopeful my new car will arrive in the next week - but you all have me worried
Jaguar F-Pace R-Dynamic SE D200 (MY22) AWD Automatic MHEV Bluefire Blue with Black exterior pack and Ebony interior.
Ordered 3rd September 2021 – was told 6-9 months; was really hoping for the former
25th Jan 2022 – Build 18th March; At Retailer 1st April
7th March 2022 – Build 25th March; At Retailer 8th April Committed to Build date 3rd March 2022
21st March 2022 – Build 1st April; At Retailer 15th April
28th March 2022 – Build 1st April; At Retailer 15th April
4th April 2022 – In Build 1st April; At retailer 6th May
13th April 2022 - Built 22nd April; at Retailer 6th May
22nd April 2022 - Built; retailer requesting car from factory - 5th May
Retailer has been ok with the communications sending regular emails and videos since January every few weeks or so. Frustrated that the commit to build was 3rd March since update on 7th March and its going to take 2 months to build and get the car to the retailer – not going to pretend I understand the process but seems a long time. I had to make balloon payment on current car (Volvo XC60) by end of April – finance company would only extend by 1 month – was originally end March; so had to dip in to savings.
I am really hoping that these dates are now fixed – they’ve not changed since 4th April.
Retailer says he needs 2-3 days to check the card and do PDI – which again I don’t understand why it’s going to take so long.
