wig Member 21 Member For: 22y 29d Location: western sydney Posted 21/03/03 12:24 AM Share Posted 21/03/03 12:24 AM my car is currently being built. if your car is being built in any particular month then the dealer should be able to give a pretty good estimate by the start of that month as ford arranges their line up dates. premium sound delayed my car by about a week and as stated FPV appears to be a bottle neck.

Guest cfm40t Guests Posted 21/03/03 02:45 AM Share Posted 21/03/03 02:45 AM Hi, just joined up.I'm glad someone else feels my pain. Our "Silver Bullet" ticked pretty much all the options on the list back in January. Now I'm being told late MAY!So far I've been told:- There was a problem with the supply of the Premium Brake package.- The GPS Nav system just didn't work, so if you ordered that, your car was delayed.- The Premium sound supplier was waaaay behind in shipping goods.Finally, it came down to the fleet company naffed up. Oh well... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All things going well it should be here in my hands next Friday afternoon.I think more likely it will be the week after, it hasn't been to wholesale yet.

len Member 42 Member For: 22y 1m 27d Posted 28/03/03 10:09 AM Share Posted 28/03/03 10:09 AM Delivery mix up now sorted out. The right color (blueprint) XR6T auto with 18 inch wheels, premium sound is now scheduled for delivery to the dealer 24 March. The dealer seems to have made a big effort to minimise any further delay in delivery.2 weeks to go It's arrived and I've picked it up...It looks fantastic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Byrne Ford were great in sorting out the mixup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest StevoD Guests Posted 01/04/03 12:08 AM Share Posted 01/04/03 12:08 AM Hi All,I am interested to know how long it has taken people to actually get their cars after they have ordered them?I ordered one 13 Feb and am still waiting.Is there any known production problems or is demand high compared to production, or any other reason that you may know of?cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bat Guests Posted 01/04/03 12:40 AM Share Posted 01/04/03 12:40 AM I think demand has been far greater than expectedOur order was placed Feb, we were told April build, May delivery. After reading the posts here, I guess we'll just have to wait and see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest dkmaj Guests Posted 01/04/03 12:47 AM Share Posted 01/04/03 12:47 AM yeah delivery can be delayed, seems to be dependant on options choosen, premium sound and sunroof seems to delay cars a fair bit. My SIDO number came thru last week, started build yesterday, est completion is 12th april after 2 days at FPV for certain options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted 01/04/03 08:07 AM Share Posted 01/04/03 08:07 AM I ordered my ute on the 3rd of January,2003, and received it 18th March,2003. I heard there is a delay at the moment due to the runout of a specific part which unfortunately holds all the vehicles at FPV. This problem might be rectified by now as it wasn't major, but it's worth the wait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was scheduled for a 28 March build with delivery around mid April. The dealer told me there was delays on premium sound and the turbo plumbing which was pushing delivery times back.Hope this helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
