New T6.1 order delays

[PhilR]

We ordered a Coast on 8th November 21 Phil from Liverpool van centre. We’ve had an update which simply said on track, possibly slightly earlier than the 10-12 months we discussed on ordering. The suggestion that it might be earlier is based on a Q3 build. I’ve not chased the dealer. They’ve been good enough to provide periodic updates even if there’s nothing concrete in what they say. I expected to wait at least 10 months so anything else is a bonus.

Good stuff Phil, cheers. Fingers crossed.

Hi Richi, thanks for that, that’s encouraging news! Which dealer are you with?

We are with Listers Droitwich. Just for info. We ordered Beach with some extras.

Anyone else on here order around the same time as us (October 2021)? Just before the ordering cut-off but very unlikely to be delivered before June. No word from the dealer as yet, don’t really want to start asking them! Still holding out for a miracle though

Hi Phil,

Same here - mid-Oct order. Getting dealer updates every 2-3 weeks. Still at Status 00 (as of yesterday) but were told we are on the list and should be sorted pre-price increase. Fingers crossed and staying as patient as possible.

Having seen these recent discussions, emailed Eurovans Crawley last night. Got back to me at 8.30am this morning saying order is Status 20 confirmed week 7 (with Towbar) Order placed on July 7th, accepted at factory 13th July. I've only emailed the dealer 3 times, Sept, Nov and last night. Each time was status 10 moving from week 17/18 in Sept to week 12 in November. Today confirmed build week 7. The dealer did actually say on ordering he was expecting vans ordered at that time to arrive at the end of March, early April 22. Maybe production output is now improving...

That’s very good for July order. Very promising for us as well.

Loved seeing this - it’s basically the exact same Cali we have on order, even down to the wood floor, shower and alloys. Sure you don’t have ours ;-).

Smashing. Enjoy. Fingers crossed for End May delivery here, July order.

Bouyed by the positive news - I emailed my dealer (eurovans Crawley) and they confirmed we've moved forward from week 18 unconfirmed to week 9 confirmed which is much better than I was hoping for and a welcome start to Feb.

This is for an ocean with a few extras (no towbar or electronic doors. How long is the timeframe for build to driveway? Dealer stated end of April which is fine with me but I'm hoping we may be able to enjoy some of the Easter holidays with the van.

From previous posts on this thread, I think 8 weeks from build to delivery is typical so that fits with end of April.

2 of mine were both about 6 weeks from build week to delivery.

I ordered on the 7th June from Breeze, that’s exciting news.

Should be already built then based on the above!

I’d be over the moon if it was, the difference is mine is an Ocean 150 so could have different lead times.

Worth asking as the update we had from Jon only a couple if weeks ago was still status 19 and week 16 - you might be pleasantly surprised!

 

[Mattsv]

*status 10 not 19

Yes, il check in with him end of Feb I think, by the sounds of it , things are pushing forward in a big way. Good news all round.

 

[Hedley Wright]

Finally after over 13 months wait Bobbyjean is at the dealers and we picking it up Monday. Popped in to see it and fell in love straight away. Can't wait to take her on some amazing adventures around Ireland.

Picked Betty up in last weekend's gales - luckily she avoided the scaffolding collapse at the dealer. She had her first trip across the Military Road yesterday in more wind and rain. Well lived in already - new cosy den for the teenager with accumulated purchases over the year of waiting. And lots of adventures to come.
Time to leave this thread now, good luck to everyone still waiting - sounds like things are speeding up a bit.
