UK order status and delays?

[Speuk]

Mine is Dick Lovett Tewkesbury.

Ah not sure which port that would be as almost equal distance to both but I would guess Sheerness.
Danube Highway is currently loading in Emden due in to Sheerness tomorrow. Patara is due in Sheerness on the 10th but not sure if this is a VAG ship.

Well after chasing the dealer again I got an update today and it seems there is movement! So unless there are any further delays it seems my car may be completed in a matter of days! I had a look to see if I could find the production image and there isn't one yet but I hope one will pop in at somepoint next time I inspect the myporsche page

Got no news on mine from a Nov21 deposit.

Rep has been in touch a couple of times with email updates to say he's monitoring it but no news.

Latest was there's still no build slot and it'll be 3 months or so from that date all being well.

It's gonna be Q2 2023 at best now, I think.

Wow. I was October 21 deposit and should be with them early December, if build finishes tomorrow as planned. That Porsche Glasgow?

Yup, Glasgow.

Rep has been decent keeping in touch (though he's the 4th contact I've had after another three left the business and they were all terrible) and he's apologetic about it all.

Let's hope it's here early Q2 2023.

Good luck with yours.

The battery has now been fitted and making its way to the Port in Embden so I am hoping the car will arrive in the next couple of weeks.

Email from dealer today, only taken 4 months...

My GTS arrived at the dealership over the weekend, ordered 17th Nov, just a week shy of a year.

We dropped by today to check it out before having it trailered to the PPF place. I’m extremely surprised / happy that the spec was complete. Bose, VLC roof, even an electric steering column and 12v battery.

Given all the issues I was mentally prepared for the worst. Counting our lucky stars, probably get a lottery ticket!
I’ll post some pics up once it has been through the PPF / detailers.

Edit- almost forgot, most surprising of all was that it included the Porsche mobile charger!

Excellent news @mutanthands. There’s definitely a large batch seeming to arrive in q4. Hope for the rest of us.

Excellent news @mutanthands. There’s definitely a large batch seeming to arrive in q4. Hope for the rest of us.

There definitely seems to be some movement on cars waiting for the 12v battery.

I've got and ST4 on order: -

15/02 - order placed / deposit paid with OPC Nottingham. Second ST order taken by Nottingham. Quoted delivery June/ July.
16/04 - order locked / scheduled for production.
20/07 - Production complete.
03/08 - Final steps before delivery.

Missing the 12v battery so has been sat in Germany ever since with a system date of 25/11 to dealership.

Update from SA yesterday that the battery is now fitted and it's at Emden and will be on the next ship, should receive it this month. Everything indicates that Bose is fitted too.

I'm not getting my hopes up yet as almost expecting the vessel to sink / catch fire on the way to Sheerness.

OPC / SA have been good, regular communication and sharing as much information as they have. Porsche GB / AG terrible, with everything going on we can accept or understand delays but the complete silence to dealers and customers has been shocking.

Another GTS. My battery is finally in the car too. Hopefully here for Christmas.

 

[Finbo]

? just had a call from Porsche Belfast and my CT4S is due with 2 others before the end of November
That’s been a wait and a half but can’t wait
Was built July 22

Great to see a lot of positive updates here on the battery finally getting fitted. Hoping I get positive news soon too as mine was also built July 22 with initial deposit April 21!

 

[slim_sane]

My car should be in Sheerness following a 2 month wait for the 12v battery to be installed post build, although my OPC claims its still on the vessel, but I think it was probably on danube highway which arrived yesterday and they haven't had an update on their systems yet.

Fingers crossed it will be with the dealer next week and ready for collection.

 

[im85288a]

Quick follow up car arrived at Emden port yesterday with expected delivery to dealer in 2 weeks time. I really hope @f1eng has also received similar good news
