NealY77 Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 Hi Guys/Girls, I've ordered a Fiesta Zetec S Red Edition on the 04/08/15 and have been given a build date of 11/09/15 and est delivery date of 03/11/15. I know that Fords shut down in July and August, but does this seem a long time, or is it that I'm just being impatient? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GingerFlame Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 You lucky person... Was so close to purchasing a Red edition then finances took a downward turn :( Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NealY77 Posted August 21, 2015 Author Share Posted August 21, 2015 Thanks, I didn't know if I was being impatient or just excited. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JRM Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 Ordered mine just before Xmas 2014 and took delivery on 1st March 2015 so seems about right. I was mighty impatient and every day was a struggle. However was definitely worth the wait. Gone for any options? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mickr Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 I ordered a Fiesta 1.0 Ecoboost 125 Titanium X on 15th July 2015 and was originally given an estimated production date of 28th August and an estimated delivery date to the dealer of WE 5th September 2015. This has now gone back to an estimated production date of 4th September 2015 and an estimated delivery date to the dealer of 26th September 2015. The original gap from production to delivery was just over a week, now it's estimated to be just over 3 weeks. I have been told that Ford are currently taking 10 weeks from order to delivery and mine works out at approximately that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cablelad Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 Ordered mine in October with a delivery date of Feb 12th, car never arrived till April 15th. One long wait......... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NealY77 Posted August 22, 2015 Author Share Posted August 22, 2015 Not much just parking sensors, privacy glass and dab radio. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jtalep Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 I ordered a Fiesta 1.0 Ecoboost 100 Titanium X with powershift on 17th July 2015 and was told last week it is scheduled to be at the dealers on 21st September - so the 10 week mark seems to be about the average at the moment.

Zico Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 When I ordered my ST3 back in March it was 2 weeks between ordering and it being ready to collect. I could only collect it a week later due to work commitments though (1st April for 15 plate reg). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mills705 Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 I don't know how you guys can wait months between a car being ordered and being delivered! I am waiting a week to get mine and it feels like forever! What's the difference between a compound car and built to order? Or are order cars just so you can get factory options fitted?

Colin1969 Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 Mine only took 6 weeks from order to delivery. Top of range titanium x with every extra possible apart from leather Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MONDEO TXS 2.2 Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 Compound cars are already built & stored in compounds in the U.K. awaiting delivery to the stealers Built to order is exactly that - you can spec the car as you wish - within Frauds spec list for any particular model 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zico Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 Yours would have been at the compound in daventry bud Sent from my iPhone using Ford OC Yeah, almost 100% compound car. I went with dealer fitted reverse sensors and everything else was already fitted to the car. Dealer was still surprised that they had my spec in stock that quickly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NealY77 Posted August 23, 2015 Author Share Posted August 23, 2015 When I ordered it the dealer said there wasn't any available, so would have to wait for it to be built. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
