Of course this all depends on whether our dealers or Ford did actually start the process when we confirmed our orders and signed the contract.
It will be interesting to see where we stand if they didn't
My dealer says NO

I'm out definitely if they want an extra £3k. It wasn't a difficult decision.

It will be the straw that breaks the camels back knowing Ford swallowed the hit in other countries and always offer lower finance in the US. It will confirm my belief that they see the UK differently to the US customers.

I somehow justified the 4.9% APR interest on PCP in my head (when base rate is 0.1%) but loosing this 3000 would tip the balance.

I'm currently back to looking at Jaguar F-Pace and with same deposit and monthly payment you can get a lot of car with some incentives. Definitely wont cancel the Mustang yet as I still have some time to play with on my current lease but really hope a pragmatic approach is taken for signed orders.

Havent got much news on when my order from back in Jan is going to be built (that I can see anyway) but speaking to my dealer and they have a demo unit from the 12th - 14th April and have said they are booking in test drives.

So I might not have mine but can at least finally go and see one!!

Me too. Should be off the boat tonight/tomorrow. Just need to wait and see what happens with the grant?
If yours is on GH she has just dropped anchor off the coast of Ostend, presumably waiting to enter the channel to Antwerp.

Have just received this from Rebecca after emailing her this morning.

The Government announcement regarding the OLEV Plug-in Grant has taken us as much by surprise as it has you. We are currently working to understand the implications and will get back to you as soon as we have assessed the position.

Just got this newsletter from a leasing company (not my one). I imagine this is the deal with all of them. Not good news.

Ford Mustang Mach-E UK Customers sorry 2


So just having the order confirmed with the finance does not count with them.
