After hearing nothing specific for weeks, but still expecting delivery as forecast in late Feb for March 1st registration, I have just learned today that my FE order is being built in week 11 (16/3) and the estimated delivery date is now 28/3.

Very disappointing. This was an order originally placed as wholesale by my dealer in September and then assigned to me in early December.

Anyone else got expected build/delivery dates yet?

Looks like there might be a mid March production run on right hand drives judging by these dates. Wonder if there is then a sub-class division then between D4 and T5's?

Good news. I obviously simply ordered 2 months too early to no advatage!

I was told by the dealer that some models are already in storage in the UK ready for distribution after the official launch date ie 22nd February.

I am told that 20” wheel orders are causing delays in build and therefore delivery dates.

So - just switched my order back to the default 19” wheels and now expect delivery in late Feb.

My 20” T5 has now been pushed back to the first week of April :oops:

My dealer promises me he’s trying to push it forward

I have been told that my FE T5 is expected at the end of March. My guesss is also sometime in April. But the wait will be worth it for sure
