    Delivery Dates//not happy

    Has anyone ordered a vehicle, and paid a deposit and then had the delivery date continuously move? I ordered my D250 90 in early April, with a promised delivery in September, that blew out until the first week in December, and yesterday I was informed it will now be February 2022?
    Im not sure I could be bothered waiting on the vehicle nor trust any delivery times given. I know delivery times have blown out on all vehicles, but anyone else had a similar 10 month blow out?

    Delivery Dates//not happy

    The globe is current ****ed to put it bluntly.
    It is what it is.

    If that doesn’t meet your timeframe you will need to make a decision on what you want to do.

    All manufacturers are in the same boat, lead times on vehicles are nearly a year for “non-stock” items.
    And many dealers of all makes are struggling to get floor stocks.

    That's hardly surprising when it takes 9 months to make a new one.

    As others have mentioned...

    All brands and their dealers are doing this, quite happy for you to build your vehicle on the website and then pay a deposit.
    Then bull**** you on the delivery times, some are bigger bull****ters than others and will often say they can get one a few months earlier than the next dealer, again then bull**** you down the track.

    Also you will pay a premium on price as demand is out stripping supply.

    Seems so unfair that two people have ordered Defender 90s in April and they get delivered 5 or 6 months apart. It must have to do with options/configuration.

    As I mention elsewhere, I put my deposit down yesterday and have been advised that it will take about 9ish months. (110 D300) A better idea of delivery times is supposed to come after JLR accept and process the order.

    It does depend heavily on options. The middle screen now has a larger option (11” instead of 10” I think).

    If I optioned the bigger screen it was going to blow out my order by a few months…
