Frustrating! Iv'e had Status UK port now for 4 weeks!

Yeah it’s the same issue with lots of dealers, because post Covid and huge reduction in new car deliveries a lot of dealers gave up valuable storage space for vehicles. Now the volume is picking up they don’t have the storage for cars so they are stay at port until dealers make space…

Mine has arrived and is at the dealers. I went and saw it last week. Its all wrapped up in a white protection sheet but I was able to sit in it, start it up and give the noise pedal a little press to listen to the pops when in sport mode.
Collection set for the morning of 1st Sept.... , have booked the day off to put some milage on it.
I should have taken some more pictures but this was all I got.

OMG! Look at that rust on the hub bolt and disc. It's been sitting somewhere a good while. I would ask them to clean that all up and put some anti corrosive wax on the bolts before the caps go on.

When I went to look at the car I had previously asked that their team did not wash the car in their 'dedicated free car cleaning bay'..... but as I walked round the vehicle the passenger door was literally covered in bird sh1t; like a seagull had eaten a curry and then shat it out whilst perched on the roof of the car...... 
I mean, any car enthusiast seeing that on their car would instantly run to grab the hose to remove it, but at these dealerships they're not concerned in the slightest.

I do wonder if I popped back if the sh1t would still be there, as I don't collect the car until next Friday.

Nice, when did you order? How long did it take from going into build to arriving at the dealers?

[Jonny2021]

Order was placed October 2021.....
After the build week being put back multiple times, I finally received confirmation mid June that the order had gone to Status 20 with the build week confirmed as from 3rd July onwards....
I then got an update to confirm, YES, the car built on 13th July and it'll be planned for shipping to the UK for August.
True to their word, it landed on UK ground on 3rd Aug and was then transported to the dealership, arriving there on 10th August. (guessing it arrived into Sheerness, Kent and was transported to Romford, Essex dealership and the sales rep has been great keeping me updated)

I could have taken the car within August, but it makes sense to wait for the 1st Sept and have the 73 plate, next Friday can't come quick enough after such a long wait.

If you are using VWFS.... check with the dealer that your quote will be honoured... because they have been saying that unless you collect in XX days, it needs requote.... to the current (much higher!) APR

[Adammd209]

Thats what i dont understand. Ordered mine september 21, arrived at UK port on or before 18th July and im still waiting? Makes no sense at all.
