Current order timescales?

Mike_H · 05-23-2016, 02:32 PM

Seem a bit on the excessive side.

I ordered a new 340i two weeks ago, standard colour and have been advised delivery will be sometime in September. So it seems to be about 16+ weeks if the estimates are accurate.

Has anyone else found this lately?

I think the switchover of Pro Nav systems has knocked a few back a bit, I ordered my 340 about a month ago and it still seems to be on track for end of June, touch wood. Dealer reckons a few orders have been pushed back so probably just down to lick of the draw, I guess the wait you've been given is standard now so they can get the newer Navs in stock.

ouch! I ordered 23rd Feb and collected 30th April so approx 10 weeks order to collection.

I ordered roughly the end of April, looking at end of July delivery after being pushed back due to Pro Nav. Was initially end of June delivery.

I ordered 22nd Feb with an estimated delivery at some point in August (circa 6 months), however I do have Individual items on my order.

How is yours taking nearly 6 months?

I have Individual seats and dashboard on my order placed 7th March with a delivery date of 2nd/3rd week of June still being promised.

Either your dealer is being pessimistic/realistic or mine is being extremely optimistic

I ordered the 440i on 16th April so 5 1/2 weeks ago now. Still at status 1100 with build scheduled for Week 24 (WC 13 June) and delivery last week in June.

That puts my order time to about 11 weeks in total if it DOES arrive then.

I have Individual leather specced so expected it to be longer than that.

No idea?! I'm still at Status 1100 with a build date of late July (delivery in August). However it appears I should get a MY17 car with the revised iDrive 5.0, so not all bad.

However I'm in the new-car-wait lull period. All excitement leading up to the order, then a few weeks of post-order excitement. I'm now 13 weeks in and keep forgetting I've a car on order!

I ordered my 335d pro nav at the end of April and I'm collecting it on Thursday.
