Whereas I just walked into the dealership and made a private order... I guess I should have spent more time on this forum back then! |

[joking aside, they apologised and put the delay down to the various lockdowns in Europe and the UK over winter, which is possible I suppose] |

6 months wasn't bad in my opinion. Surely they can't still be using lockdown excuses 🤔 |

Just had the call.... Dealer delivering on Friday the 5th... number plate issued and quite funky ('21)
The wait is over and certainty resumes....

Awaiting allocation
So genius states the factory have my order but its now awaiting scheduling and I should check weekly.
Anyone have any experience of how long between submission and having a scheduled start? Order is a G21 330e MSport, if that helps anyone |

Its a company lease so I don't get too much flex and I suspect that the dealer prioritises general public over fleet. Ill keep checking, hopefully get confirmed slot soon! |

On the contrary, see my posts on this in this thread. Alphabet (BMWs leasing arm) have lots of build slot allocation.

We have thousands of cc drivers in the UK all requesting test drives and fighting for manufacturing slots. Most people are waiting 2 months for a bloody test drive through them 🙈 You can imagine our office car parks throughout the UK resemble a BMW dealers what with the BIK rates pushing most towards G20 & G30's 👍🏻 |

Hoepfully that is the case Xenon, but I fear I may be in a similar spot to Seelark, mine is through 'Leaseplan' and its Jardine in Milton Keynes actually handling the order.
Just a case of waiting for my build slot - I know its in the queue to be allocated so fingers crossed my experience is similar to Thomashunt1. Will update when I get a status change! |

Yes maybe its only BMWs own leasing arm that gets the quicker slots but good luck. I had an e46 back in the day from Leaseplan which was pretty quick.
