Tony, do us a favour please and let us know when your VIN tracker changes... If there's a delay in that then it gives the rest of the "in production" gang some hope.

And depending on how quickly it updates we will know when our cars get on the train too! ?

Hiya - mine is still showing as “In Production” so there’s still hope for everyone. I will post when it changes.

I was just super lucky to catch one of the factory workers in my car, and that they were kind enough to accept my activation request when I resubmitted it.

I am sure there are lots of people who will post on here as soon as there is any movement on the tracker.

Of course, it's just that as Wonky can trace the car movements it gives us good insight into how the tracker updates with what's happening with the car

I'm in exactly the same position - also changed dealer. Maybe we will get a nice surprise next week

I changed dealer too! No updates.

Ok I’m confused. got this email tonight from Ford. Logged in Following the link. Can’t see any changes at all. Nothing specified anywhere. Anyone else get this?!?

YOUR ORDER HAS BEEN UPDATED​

Dear mark, There has been a change to the specification of the vehicle you ordered. For full details of exactly what’s changed, please follow the link below to manage your order. Your Dealer will contact you to update your order form.​

Got this email as well tonight at 9.30 like a few on here. Haven’t made any changes to my order and can’t see any online. Only recent development for me has been finally getting initial finance agreement.

It’s typical that I’ve been moaning about not getting emails from Ford when I wanted them and now I’m getting them when I don’t! ?

Will speak to my dealer on Monday but guessing another in a long line of IT hiccups...?‍

Apparently my car is due to be built this coming Friday. Anyone know how long this will take and the most likely ship it is to be on?

Build has been taking about 6 days altogether. If it sits around like mine did for 2 months you'll be looking at shipping in April. Having said that the optimist in me, and I'm sending a (little) bit your way, you could be looking at the ship that leaves on 27th February. Good luck.

Car is on a joy ride now ? odometer has gone up to 10miles (was 7 when I first connected)

Location hasn’t updated in last 3hrs so can’t see what’s going on.

Time for bed - let’s see what tomorrow brings

If you look away, it will move. DON'T go to sleep!

It explains why a lot of US cars are being delivered with about 14 miles on the odo.

Strangely my XC90 was also had exactly 14 miles on the odo when I picked it up but I imagined they had to road test it as during PDI an emissions light came on and they had to replace a part, where as my previous lexus Rx only had 4 miles, and that was explained by the sales rep who told me he took it to the petrol station to fill up the tank.

Wouldn't be surprised if Lexus reset the odo during PDI!

Too similar for my liking tbh! I’d prefer those rims on the MME!

I'm sure it's just a lazy render using the MME as inspiration

Nice but instantly obselette except the EV version and hampered by the need to have petrol models.
