Well done. Did your final order identify your deposit mine has deposit as £0.
I think that as we paid the dealer (via Ford when we preordered) the £1000 will be taken into account at the dealers. So if you are going to put a £5000 deposit down you only part with £4000. I hope that is what they will do anyway

Just had another look at my order and it says 14 - 16 weeks which is mid march. That's more like it

My order says the same thing. Surely 14 weeks from now will be April and no doubt you have to factor in Xmas and New Year closedowns?

Preordered: 4 Oct 2020
Order confirmed: 11 Dec 2020
Estimated delivery: 21 May 2021 (20-23 weeks)

Just learn that the dealer can offer a better part-exchange than the online one. Do you think I can have a chance to discuss with them now? I did not opt for the part-exchange when confirming.

So you can go without finance and then sort that out with the dealer before delivery separately to the web process? Also if I am looking at a leasing company would that be the same? It has been before when I order the car then the finance people get in touch with the garage to sort payment information.

Oh dear. Now that we have confirmed our orders have we nothing more to say to each other. There hasn't been a post on this thread for 12 hours. Or is it that we are just coming to grips that we have probably committed to the second most expensive purchase we have ever made. I know I am.

Not long until we get a real life look at the car, then I'm sure we will be back in full force!

Not sure about everyone else, but I’ve been asleep!
I have no doubt it’s gonna get saturated on here once everyone starts visiting the dealerships over the next two weeks.

I know what you mean. I’m still in shock that I actually got the email as well! It goes to show that Ford gets it right at the important bit....when they’re actually getting someone to order a car! ?

Although didn’t go smoothly. My finance has been cancelled and I’ve to contact my dealer. I see that seems to be common thing so will see how that develops!

Either way I’m sure the forum will pick up once the shock wears off...
