So not all the options then? :tongue: 

Winds me up no end when every seller on Autotrader puts 'every option', 'fully loaded', etc... :laugh: 

It's much easier for me to say what options are not in the car

updated beginning July

Sure add me on the list

 

Ordered: November 2021, VIN allocated this week, build date end of August

Great idea! I’m in,

Shinetop

St-line Vignale 155 Mhev; manual; Desert Island Blue; Driver assist pack; Parking pack; Blind spot information pack; Head up display; Panoramic sunroof; Dynamic matrix led headlights inc glare free lighting.

ordered 25/01/2022

originally told 5/6 months delivery, then informed in June that it would be built June/July, then told in July that ‘likely’ build date would be September…

Guys, did you noticed any video on YTB with the Titanium X version? I checked and there are none, only the Titanium Vignale and nothing more... 

My details are already here in this topic, but as a short summary:

IL Dotore / 02.11.2021 / ST-X / RO / NO / estimated build month October / updated today 26.07.2022 / NO

 

Thanks so far all. It's looking interesting so far!

Will wait a while before I post it though to wait for others.

Initial thoughts are, the date of order broadly falls in line with predicted date to be built with some outliers.

We are mostly wanting 155 engines and there's a lot of matrix lights and sunroofs flying around in the list.....

Black, ST Line Vignale 1.0L 155PS MHEV, 7 speed Powershift Automatic, Dynamic Matrix LED Headlamps, HUD, BLIS, DAP, PP.

Ordered 2nd Feb 22, expected delivery August 22, I say that without laughing. No updates from supplier, will try next week.

Just been updated...

Dealer expects to get my car in October now

I also wanted the 155mhev beast, but my dealer said that if I'll purchase this, I'll wait between 6-12 months more since Ford planned to build more 125mhev this year 

St-line X 155 Mhev; Auto; Magnetic Grey; St-Line design pack; Parking pack; 18" Katana wheels; Driver assistance pack; Dynamic Matrix LED Headlamps including Glare Free Lighting; Perimeter alarm plus; B&O sound system;

Hi all,

Don't know if it's readable? Please let me know. (Just looked myself, and if you click on the image, it loads as a clearer image)

I will next update on 10th Aug unless there are loads of updates. If there are, I'll post again next weds.

From now on, no special action required, just mention any updates you have as you normally would, and I'll add them to the sheet.

Nice one for putting this together Plimp. 

Will be interesting to see when 2021 orders start coming through.

Yes it is readable, good useful/interesting information.  Thankyou for doing this it will be helpful for everyone on here.😎

No worries all.

Some interesting observations can be made.

The earlier you ordered, the earlier your build month, MOSTLY. With some exceptions, but broadly so.

All except one in the list wants a 155 engine. Does this mean everyone else that's ordered a 125 is happy with their delivery date, and hasn't bothered to visit this thread? I know the uptake itself must be mostly towards the 125 engine.

Next is, there's no later builds than October being mentioned. So watching this table through September will be interesting. 

I will keep the old tables so we can go back and see how many times the dealer commitments slip.

According to today though, we should all have our cars by December.

I'm the only one with the 125 engine, I feel so bad :(( I should've get the 155 version...

I wouldn't feel bad. You might get your car quicker.

Plus it's excellent. I drove a non mhev 125ps, and it had more than enough power. Will be better when the mhev system is added also.

Let's see, I'm really curios..According to Ford Romania, you'll get your car quicker if you have the 125mhev version.

I know, right now I'm driving my dad's MK4 1.0 100hp and for me its more than enough, the 125 version it's a really nice addition 😄

ST line Vignale 155ps Auto, fantastic red, parking pack. Ordered 3/2/22. Update 27th July, still showing July build but realistically likely to be September/October delivery. No vin.

Placed my order on 1st March 2022 for a Focus Estate ST-Line 1.0 EcoBoost MHEV 155ps in Moondust Silver with extras of the openable panoramic roof, family pack, winter pack and ST-Line design pack. 

My dealership (Arnold Clark Ford, Linwood) told me build date of June but my last update just last week, this is still the same status! 
 

I am more than prepared to wait as I anticipated “slight” delays so knew my PCP deal would come to an end so organised it all earlier than I normally would but at the same time I still do not want to wait a ridiculous amount of time!

Hi, thought I’d let you know I have just cancelled my order with Gates of Harlow.  Due to my circumstances I can’t afford to wait any longer as I have now been without a car since June last year.  Visited my Kia dealer this morning, ordered a Niro for delivery 18th August! 
I hope you all get your orders as soon as possible!  Good luck!!👍🏻🤗

Good luck to you Dave, at least you are now well away from this shambles.

Ford - I hope someone in your team is reading this forum and taking notes!!

Good luck to you also, I was thinking to get also a Niro, but for me this facelift it's uglier than the predecessor, and it's much more expensive... 

Well it's landed!
