It was reported yesterday that Ford were prioritising EU deliveries the score better on their environmental credits.

The UK is not in the EU. ???

oh FFS. This is getting pathetic
It is indeed. no f-ing information coming out of Ford.

It's now creeping from May into June.

The country and commuting is potentially opening up from late June/early July.

We need our cars.

No-one thought back in December after confirming orders that we would still be here in May not having the car or a firm delivery date.

I did not know it would be June at the very earliest that the deliveries would start and that Ford would be responding with any questions with even less than "no comment".

I believe Norway have a ship that rescued their cars from Antwerp but deliveries have not reached customers.

As far as I can recall there has not been anyone who is on this forum from UK, NOR, FR, GER, NL who have reported that they have had their cars delivered to them. Ford media did report that someone in NL had their car delivered. That means that there has been only 1 car delivered to a customer in the whole of EUR, and I include the UK in that, as far as we know. Now with all the cars that have arrived in Antwerp in the last 2 months don't you think that tells us something about the condition of our cars and the work that is required to bring them up to standard. The is, in my opinion, definitely more than meets the eye than the official reason of "additional QC checks"

That’s what was reported.... perhaps based on Shengen Area? I did a quick search but couldn’t see ... UK is clearly not too of the list.

"Flåte’s Mustang Mach-E was on a boat with many others that arrived last Wednesday in Drammen. “We now have very many cars that have arrived or are on their way to Norway, and know that there are many customers who have waited patiently. Therefore, it is great now to finally be up and running and hand over the very first customer-delivered car in Norway to Einar Flåte, says CEO of RøhneSelmer, Kjetil Hagestande.”

I thinks there's at least two on the Dutch thread @makooy being one of them.

At least three on the Norwegian thread where the cars have arrived at dealers. The Norwegian issue seems to be a bottleneck in processing in Norway.

I think as we have all learnt, Ford have no concept of uk season or years. I think if it does come on sale and I am still waiting for my FE I would change my order for the GT (price depending). Must be a sucker for punishment!
I did notice that he said Europe when I asked about U.K. specifically, so I wouldn’t be surprised if we’re skipped all together. But yes, if order bank opens before my car is delivered, I’ll seriously consider cancelling and waiting on the GT... depending on the lead time. My FE is now delayed to August, so there is a chance.
