Nothing in that post that we didn't already know. That's what my dealer told me at the beginning of AprilThis was just posted by someone on the Facebook Mach e UK page.......
Had this response from the Ford EV team (not dealer). They are checking where my specific order is, but by these timescales I should have had it delivered by now....
“All the vehicles are offloaded to Antwerp for several reasons. Antwerp is the host of a new inspection centre, where all the vehicles are unloaded and have to pass a 50-point check before they can be released for delivery. This is to make sure there are no quality concerns and they can fine tune the car to perfection. They process up to 300 Mach-E models every day for vehicles throughout Europe, for which an electronic report is generated using an online inspection tool, which immediately reports any issues back to our manufacturer.
These checks take an estimated 5-10 weeks turnover time. From Antwerp it then takes an estimated 7-14 days to ship to the UK. The cars are taken from Antwerp, to Flushing (Belgium) then it will arrive into Dagenham where the cars will be loaded onto a transporter to dealers around the UK”
