When did you order.

Hmm I ordered late March/early April at a forum sponsor dealer and still no news. Last time I asked was about 3 weeks ago and I was assured they will update me as soon as they hear from LR. I am not impatient ( as long as it is delivered in Sep ), can't believe it's been 2 months already, but just want to be aware so I can review & confirm the spec and check if they have made any mistakes one last time before it is too late.

I need to close off my spec by 23rd June I believe for the August build slot.

Ordered 16th April...

Have been told august build, september delivery for new plate.

Found out today build is scheduled for w/c 31st October.

Dealer still reckons september could happen as orders get bumped up?!?

Think they were just off that I got the actual build date via a 3rd party and couldnt string me along.

The wait is painful. MY16 SDV6 AB Dynamic Stealth

How did you get the build date via a 3rd party Hobster? Did you contact someone at LR directly? Current: Volvo XC90 T8 Inscription Pro PHEV with some optionals on top

Do orders really get bumped up though ? I was told the same thing but sounds like it's just something which gets said has anyone seen someone get there car bumped up ? I can't imagine if there is a wait time to production of 4 months from ordering to build start that magically production will speed up if anything I'm hoping it isn't delayed due to a production line issue.

They told me that recent deliveries had been upto a month earlier and that it had caused a nightmare as customers were not expecting and still wanted to amend order... my BS detector still rings though... MY16 SDV6 AB Dynamic Stealth

For what it is worth the original guestimate given for my delivery was October and then it moved dramatically to Sep 4th. I don't know whether they ramp up production for the new year or whether demand has dropped off. When I first inquired about a RRS a year or so ago the wait was 6mths at least.
