This 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”

Nothing in that post that we didn't already know. That's what my dealer told me at the beginning of April

Anyone heard anything following that Ford dealers' call on the Mach E yesterday?

Just spoken to my dealer. Although he didn't participate because he is hosting test drive event for 3 days he was under the impression it was just about ordering. Perhaps the GT order book is opening soon

My PTI still says December so I doubt Mr Elvis will be on time!

Mine is same still showing 8th Dec. Frustratingly my original Sr rwd that was on immacolata end of march as well had its checks done in first week of April. There just seems to be no order to these checks ?.

Yes - waist of time

Exactly same behaviour for me! (4:27AM, which is 17 minutes after you)

Just tried to reactivate it, and got errors (something went wrong, contact Ford). Had this for 4-5 trials. Now, it is waiting for activation for 2-3 minutes and then fails (what I had before having this waiting time for days).

There is definitely something happening!
Finally!

(disclaimer: that does not mean that cars are going to be delivered in the next few days unfortunately…)

If this keeps up, w/e 12 June is going to be a very busy week. Personally I don't think we have heard the last of date changes unfortunately.

Got my test drive on Saturday, so those of you who have them tomorrow, please be careful.

Hi @portlandg

My test drive is also Saturday (at Dinnages in Brighton) - looks like we'll have a great opportunity to test the windscreen wipers and the handling on wet roads ?

I'm also hoping for an update on delivery as my last one was for 22 May ........ but am expecting to join the new 12 June group ?

Hope your drive goes well

Cheers
David

OOOPPPSSSS. Hadn't looked at the forecast. Such is life. Hope your date hasn't changed although I will be a bit miffed if it hasn't ? Hope your test drive goes well too.

Has anybody else had their dealer ask them to choose a registration plate for their Mach E yet? Mine has today so he must be confident it will arrive before the change to 71 plate in September!!! ???

Not me but then I am using the same plate that I have on my current car.

Has anyone read up on how good the security is on them? There have been a number of Ford’s stolen, guessing clone key etc, just wondered if the MME was ‘as secure’ as it could be.
