Perhaps it would help if you could tell us which cars you were looking at?
I’m ordering in October, I was expecting long lead (delivery ) times, but even for factory orders, I wasbpleasently surprised
Skoda Enyaq factory order as I want extras,morder October, delivery January
Hyundai ionic 5, available from stock, or January for factory orders
Kia EV6 AWD GT line 3 month factory order Ford Mustandg Maxch e in stocj
BMW i4 order October,ndelivery January
None if these orders are what I would call a delivery Issue, rather back to normal lead times.
Yes, my current superb estate was in stock,mbut that was pure luck with Covid lock down on the horizon.
Motability have said, dealers hold two sets of car stock/orders, one for private sal3s, one for motability, business lease sales are dealt with by the manufacturer and the dealer only gers the servicing and warranty work.
so, can you tell us what cars you were looking at?
