When did you order, when is it arriving?

Think everyone is waiting that long. I ordered a week after you. Last actual update was mine has a provisional build date of the week before Christmas.

I saw the delay issues and thought I'd be in for a long wait as two dealers said there is not other way.
However, I ordered yesterday from a choice of pre-built cars. Some are ready within a week, a couple a few weeks out and some with build week 45.
I had to compromise from a VZ2 to a V2, but tale solace in the lower tax. I'm not sure if you have factory ordered whether you could switch but it might be worth a try.

Random question, if I decide to cancel does anyone have an idea of the lead time on new Tucson's - I was told that Hyundai are not as badly affected by the chip shortage?

I looked at getting a Tucson N Line S at one point and cancelling my Formentor order. My local Hyundai dealer said it would be at least March/April for a factory order. They had plenty of lower spec Tucson's, but I didn't fancy any of them so sticking with the formentor

Have you called Nationwide and checked with them? I still get those emails stating "no updates", but when I called them directly, I have a confirmed build week (22nd Nov) with a potential delivery date of the start of January. Might be worth calling them directly.

Had word today that my VZ3 has finally arrived in the UK and will be at the dealership within the next 10-14 days; must’ve been on Aquarius Ace! Hopefully lots more of you are getting the same good news.

I was feeling very jealous of you, @redreligion until an email arrived a few minutes ago from griffintaxfree.co.uk stating that my car was also on it's way to the dealers. Again, must have been on Aquarius Ace. (y)

Have you spoken with your lease company to find out who the supplying dealer is?

My lease company have been rubbish with updates, but I called the fleet department of the supplying dealership, which is when I found out the car had a confirmed build week. Maybe see if you can find out that info?
Who did you speak to at JCT? Just discovered today they are supplying my Nationwide order and so far no info from Nationwide at all...

VZ3 petrol matte blue, pano roof, tow bar, safety pack. Ordered May, arriving with dealer 1st Dec !

At last. Looks like they finally found some chips. I'll be anxious until I finally see it in person.

I know how you feel. It’s been a bit of a rollercoaster but now in a very similar situation to yourself. Looking forward to seeing it in the flesh!

Call them on 01274777600 and ask to speak to their fleet department. Provide them your SLI number and they will be able to give you an accurate update. 🤞

My car was due to arrive at the dealership tomorrow so I chased up to make sure everything was still on track. This was the response...

Vehicle was ordered 27th of May and build week was week 37.
