UK order status and delays?

[simcity]

I've written a really nice letter to Santa and I've got some very expensive sherry, mince pies etc in for him...so fingers crossed ?

After an extra 5 week delay (other parts in short supply ???)...mine apparently gets here a week after yours.

How much extra do I have to bribe Santa?! ?

Being realistic I reckon it could be a January baby. Poor thing.

Has anyone started to receive any allocations from what I understand to be the Dec-Mar batch?

1st plan - build complete 30th sept delivery 28th oct,
2nd plan - build complete 14th oct - delivery 28th oct
3rd (present) plan - build complete 4th nov - delivery 18th nov.
4th plan ???????

no idea if/when build started - OPC not forthcoming on that one... a tad defensive on it TBH

But its a 1st world problem - and other Taycan expectees are much worse off

MY24 looks tempting now........

EDIT - My OPC just informed me my car is built! can't see it on My Porsche yet - hopefully soon . - delivery in early November (touching wood)

Hey that's good to hear Alan,
They usually get to Emden Port the same day as production complete.
Another uk Taycan was at Emden Port last Saturday and at Sheerness this Tuesday so hopefully it will move quickly to your dealer now.
My 4S CT is due to start production on 4th November having slipped one week.
Reading are super transparent and keep me updated with screenshots as below.
Good luck...

Thanks Simon - For personal reasons it's actually VERY bitter-sweet for me to be getting this car now.

Anyways, I hope yours gets delivered ASAP.

Hopefully there’s a few of us on here who will get some good news next month!

Similar story here in Belgium, ordered back in November 2021. First I was supposed to get TC in July- August. The date has been moved so many times, I can't even keep count. Latest info was supposedly coming from the importer (for Belgium) at the very worst worst case delivery will be November... Somehow I don't believe that anymore... I'm running out of positive patience. In Belgium we don't get any information about the reason of delay or we aren't able to follow things online...

I'll admit that I am starting to think that it is a cunning ploy to get us to cancel our orders as they can re-sell them (brand new) for a lot more than I suspect that we are all paying for them....

My Taycan RWD delayed again, this time from Feb 23 to at least April 23.

Received my build plot from my SA and the locked-in date has moved to the right by two weeks. He has advised me that the arrival at dealership delivery date should be treated as a marker only as he thinks it's likely it will also move to the right. Hey ho.

So, next milestone for me is to get to the lock-in date which will feel like progress of sorts.

Your exactly a week behind my 4S CT. Fingers crossed ot runs to plan ?

 

[MrBlueSky]

Fingers crossed. I'll be watching your progress closely Simon .

Just been told by my dealer that having ordered April this year (Taycan GTS) that it’s going to be another 12 months before I even get a build slot. Most annoying - but what can you do ??‍??‍

Which dealer? Do you know how many GTS in the queue in front of you there?
Also, did you go Saloon or Sport Turismo?

Chester. And the saloon. I was told in July I was 6th in the queue and looking at a June 23 build. Now I’m 9th (?!) and looking at an Oct/Nov 23 build.

Not going to get annoyed about it, even if there’s some reallocations at the dealer to priorise different customers or if I was just given an incorrect number in the queue and an honest mistake there’s little I can do about it - plus to be fair the service at Chester is excellent and the best dealer I’ve ever come across so I’ll just have to wait like the rest of us ?
