Hi there,

Just joined the group and great to read all the messages posted here.

I ordered my Inscription at the beginning of November and was quoted an early/mid March delivery (the Midlands) anyone know if that’s realistic?

Greetings from another Midlander.

Your quoted delivery times are in line with mine - ordered December, car expected at dealer late March, pick up April.

I suspect, like me, your dealer already had slot(s) booked & amended order to suit.

We're in a sweet spot at moment - good dealers can pre-order cars knowing that they can sell them easily.

Thanks for the quick replies. I’m keeping my fingers crossed (ever the optimist!!). Perhaps they should be quoting more realistic delivery times if longer delays are the norm but I’ll keep you all posted.

I ordered mine mid October and being told 15th April - post Brexit
Any one know of any dealers suggesting a surcharge post Brexit as I have heard it being muted by other manufacturers?

I ordered a t3 r design pro at the start of Jan and have a delivery date of 8th March. Dealer has been very firm on this date and state they are getting on time and even early deliveries now.

There have been a few stories about regarding post brexit price rises. The most significant I have read was that Porsche have advised customers who ordered cars after a certain date in Jan may face a 10% price rise on their cars depending on the outcome of brexit.

I ordered a MY20 T4 R design pro last week and have a phone call today giving a delivery date on 24 June. Nothing about the Brexit surcharge in fact my total spec is £10 like for like cheaper than the old list price.
