When did you order, when is it arriving?

Indeed, I keep getting conflicting information... it "should" have been built but we have not been given the chassis number. So, it probably hasn't been built haha. Do they provide the chassis number once its fully completed? So it could be part built and awaiting the semi-conductors?
Sorry, I have no idea! I haven't received any specific information yet, if I do, I will let you know.

Funnily enough I just had an email from NVC stating that the estimated delivery to the supplying dealership would be 15/02/2022.

Called them up but its still not built, so why do they even bother giving these updates :cautious:

When I ordered from leasing options, back in June, was given an approximate date towards the end of September. This then got pushed to October, then got an email saying it was built, and would be arriving end of October, to then be told, it still was not built and would be 8th November (to the dealer). That then change to 18th November, and then 8th December. Actually got it on 1st December

Nevada White V2 Hybrid ordered 30/11 - at the dealer on Monday, and collecting a week on Tuesday.

It was 'at the port' so assuming cancelled order, and it's a 250mile trip to the dealer to collect - but still!

This doesn't bode well for hopeful order dates...

To be fair that article is from 3 months ago.

At the end of October the CEO said that they were through the worst of it. He said that Volkswagen's supply chain bottlenecks would ease in the coming months, with improvements expected "quarter over quarter" in 2022. He said the company has been "stockpiling" and was working to make its supply chains more "robust and resilient."

Fingers crossed! I don't think anyone can forecast given the current climate though! Don't envy the manufacturers in the slightest!

I'm still getting the "we are still chasing the dealer for an update" from NVC ordered end of May. I was told end of September or October nobody returns my calls so frustrating 😡

2 to 4 weeks?

"Volkswagen's Spanish unit SEAT has added new output curbs at its main assembly car plant near Barcelona in December, closing its factory for five days, because of global semiconductor supply bottlenecks, the company said on Monday.

The crisis of global semiconductors supply, that affects all the automobile industry, will force us to idle the Martorell plant on 17, 20, 21, 22 and 23 December, the company said on Monday in a statement.

The production curbs come as demand for the SEAT and CUPRA brands is back at pre-pandemic levels, the statement said
