We were the same, and today it has gone into build 🙂

That's positive news, and gives hope for the rest of us.  Has your dealer indicated a delivery date yet?

Fingers crossed yours doesn't take as long as mine as its been built for nearly 5 weeks I believe and nothing else has happened 

Is your car still in France?  Any indication that it is on it's way to the UK?  Seems strange why it is taking so long, hope things get moving soon.

We've been really patient and haven't hassled them at all. When we ordered in May they suggested probably by Xmas, and that still seems a distinct possibility given the status today.

@pauly69 which model have you ordered, do you have any extras?

Yeah it's either not been built yet or something is going on as I'm being told first week of December before I get mine and it's been ordered since. March

Excel, no extras other than protection pack which I assume is done at Derby.

Hopefully things are moving along behind the scenes and you get your car in December as promised.

A wise man not ordering any extras.  Standard spec cars seem to be moving through quite nicely on about 6 months delivery from what I can see on here.

If you got a dash cam then they are done at the dealership as that's what my dealer told me on the phone on Tuesday

Feel bad for you Jodie although hoping you are the exception to the usual timeline. The Yaris is for my partner, but I had experience of a long wait for my own car recently - ordered last November and eventually cancelled after 8 months without a sniff of an estimated build date. Then ordered from a different manufacturer and that one will be here soon 🙂

 

Hopefully your new December estimate is accurate 🤞

Just received to positive news from my dealer which has pepped me up slightly.

Apologies for the delayed response, I have just check your order again and there has been no further updates on the ETA. It is still showing November at this moment of time.

 The last update shows that your vehicle will be leaving the production line in the next few days

Interesting 😏 we'll see.

Thank you getting so fed up now as it seems no1 can tell me if the car is built or not atm

Sharp intake of breath!!!  Pearl paint is suffering from chip shortages 😉.  Joking aside,  the order numbers follow a general pattern but they aren’t cast in stone.  You’ve asked the dealer and they won’t comment?  

[Mojo1010]

Jodie here got a standard design with Dashcam to be fitted at the dealer, ordered since march as well, as u may have read on the forum. Told to expect it in Dec. Nothing can be done about it, just the way it is atm. 

[Jimden]

Showroom sent me the My T app link would you believe!!

[flash22]

Last time i looked, it's 33-68 week wait, spec dependent - a pano roof and pearl paint puts it in a batch production slot eg. similar spec cars are produced in that batch

Similar order to mine, Design with Pan roof ordered 16th Feb order KT7***
Like you I get no info as such from my dealer although after chasing this week I did get an email stating

“Apologies for the delayed response, I have just check your order again and there has been no further updates on the ETA. It is still showing November at this moment of time. The last update shows that your vehicle will be leaving the production line in the next few days”

Have you had any update on the app yet?  Mine has been showing locations but as today still “Order Processing” Call of status “Called off” I’m hoping to get some good news soon and I would say that yours might go through same batch. KT and KV order numbers are very close. I’ll will post here as soon as I have some more news.

 

[Jimden]

Many thanks, no fingers left to cross!!

[anchorman]

Mine was originally forecast for November but if it comes it comes.  The app has pinged me a message saying it’s being processed (it did from the start) but the map has appeared.   It’ll be just my luck now I’ve put all season tyres on the flipping Yaris 🙄

[Jimota]

Just had a quick look at some of the topics within the Corolla club and nearly choked on my smoked caviar when one of the members was informed that his delivery was delayed due to a shortage of metallic blue paint!  I’m waiting for a flat white model and hopefully they have gallons of the stuff in reserve.

Cheers

Does the build number have any influence on delivery time do you think?

From comparing my order number with another they seem to be a simple alphanumeric sequence.
