      Ordered a Peugeot 5008 way back in February 2022 (JCT600 Peugeot Bradford) – original build date was September. Then later told it has moved to December 2022. Rang the local dealership last week on Thursday – no response.

      Today I get an email from the Motability rep dealing with my order saying he is no longer able to fulfil this order from this site, and my order has been transferred to another site (JCT 600 Peugeot Mention).

      Is this normal?? I am very annoyed to say the least!

        I’ve never heard of this. What has the new dealer said? It looks like it’s the same dealer group so I’m slightly confused as surely the order is related to the dealer group.

        From April 2024 Toyota BZ4X now From april 2025 Skoda Enyaq 85 Edition due to BZ4x being written off

          We once had a dealer close down whilst waiting for delivery. It was transferred to a new dealer a few miles away.

            Just spoke to the new dealer – they say that JCT 600 Bradford have had a dispute with the Peugeot so currently aren’t fulfilling any new vehicle orders (strange). Also been told that my 1.6 engine I ordered in February may never be built as Peugeot have stopped making that particular engine.

            I have two disabled children in two wheelchairs that I cannot get into my current car. There are hardly any other options to choose from that are suitable unfortunately. Stuck in a bit of a rut now unfortunately.

              I guess mb are getting the car via the manufacturer not the dealer, as they really only act as a broker in the deal and get a fee for doing so.

              I recently left the scheme and got my new car in 4 week’s.

              The wait time on the scheme for alot of cars is way to long, which can be especially problematic if your circumstances have changed and the curent car is no longer suitable.

              The only solution I see to your issue might be off the scheme, even if it’s only short term till a new car arrives or comes onto the scheme that’s suitable.

              Seems though mpv’s are not as popular as they was and many have been dropped for suv’s. The other option maybe an estate. I know they are lower and for some that’s an issue getting in or out, but they do give you alot of  boot space.
