If my experience over the past 15 months is anything to go by my VW dealer has often had the same car, even the wanted colour, in stock for immediate delivery but I still waited near on 15 months for delivery so you can’t go by dealer stock, well not with VW you can’t and assume some others are the same.
I could go on to say that its Motability customers being push down the queue but its not because I know for fact it’s every day folk who factory order are getting the same treatment.
That said it seems like dealer are getting more cars now than what they got last year.
