New Car delivery times

Post by TitanTim » Tue May 09, 2023 12:01 pm

Just wandering if anyone has placed a new car order and what your expected delivery time is?

I know last year delivery times weren't great with Ukraine and the pandemic etc but was hoping things might be improving by now but seems not.

I was looking to trade my Hyundai Kona in for a Hyundai i20N. I know last years delivery on the i20N model was upto 12 months :cry: so have been keeping an eye out on dealer new stock around the country the past few months but each time a car comes up its either a phantom car or its snapped up immediately. Placed a reservation of 99 quid on the car below some 200 miles away from me over the Bank Holiday only to be told yesterday its gone and their stock page hadn't been updated :|

I asked what's the delivery now on this model and the sales guy said they placed an order last month and latest delivery is next January :cry:

Anyone else having similar?

There's one or two on Cazoo with lowish mileage but a little reluctant buying a car from them.

Thanks for the links, looks like all manufacturers are as bad as one another unless you want a Peugeot :cry: :D
