That doesn't bode well for me and @Wonky_Donkey as we both had a build date of 9/12/20 although I did speak with my dealer today and he said my eta was still the same at 13/3/21.

Or they can't get sufficient discounts on the price to make it worth leasing?
As far as I know, leasing companies makes their money in the upfront fee’s they charge for sourcing the vehicle. The actually monthly payments and deposits are usually entered into with the customer and the manufacturers finance arm directly. At least this was the case with my last two leases... £150-£200 fee paid to the lease company, then all the financing docs came from VW Finance and Mazda Finance, they delivered the car and the payments went to them.
Sounds like that is a cancelled order. Mine has receipt date of 6/3 as well. My build date was 9/12. I preordered 29/2 and confirmed 11/12. I think there were a few UK cars built that week. Those that weren't 'taken up' have been passed to new customers. You're lucky, haven't got to go through the pain that I have with long wait. Just hoping that now the deadline for confirming has passed they will start shipping.
that might be what's holding up the shipping out.
It would be nice of Ford to tell us though
