I just rang my dealer, got told current expected delivery showing as 14th December. Fingers crossed it was on the same ship then

 

[Simmy]

Yes that's all I get at the moment. Which is a date that is looming large.

I'm just slightly hopeful because up until now it was always a lot more vague with estimates

Just got a call from dealer. My car has been assigned haulage and will be in the dealership on the 7th 🥳🥳

Which model did you order?

Techno Annoyingly because of the initial prediction of december 14th I don't sell my car until then though

Just received a call from Renault customer support, my car has been delivered to the dealership, getting a call from dealer tomorrow to arrange handover 🥳

 

[Simmy]

Arranged pick up on Monday, can't come soon enough

 

[Simmy]

Congrats not jealous at all 🤔 still waiting for a congrete date

Give renault customer services a message on Whatsapp, they gave quite good updates and then even rang me when my car reached dealership

 

[Simmy]

Yeah mine is waiting for me to pick up. Supposed to be today, but my current car sale funds haven't come through yet

 

[Simmy]

I have just driven back my Etech 🥳 🥳 The dealership took a picture of me because I was first to get it delivered there and to pick up

As someone asked for a picture of mine, here it is:

So when a dealer states a trade-in value which they can stick to for the month but the car comes right before they break up for xmas, new year etc, you just don't know what they are going to come up with.
Verbally, they did agree that if the thing was delayed into January they would still honour the same crappy valuation but they could just as easily hold their hand out for an extra grand.

If that was the case then they would lose a sale but would they really care?

Have you tried carwow, cazoo etc?

Also, I can't find the original discussion but people were wondering about the false boot/divider thing. I asked my dealer about it, and he gave me a useful site that has RRP of all accessories (he said some might be cheaper because the prices get set before the car is fully released):

Yes the difference was negligible, at least I still have a car but 12, 14, 9, 13,14 then 23rd is a bit of a mickey take.
I might look elsewhere, I know a few dealers have several cancellations perhaps by folk about to get locked inside an MG4.

So what about your car, is it white?
I hear the app is letting people down a bit.

Yeah posted a pic above, fully white. Decided not to spend on a paint job, and actually quite like the fully white. Yeah the app seems to be having some issues.... But to be honest I switched from a Peugeot e208, and that app was a pile of s**t 😂

I could be wrong, but it seems to to turn off the airbag if nobody is in the seat (when my girlfriend sits in the passenger seat the light is not on, but when nobody is there its on)
