It’s on the tracker as 24th August, and I was told early September was likely unless there was further movement (it moved back from the 8th). The date didn’t appear on the tracker until it had moved to”build in progress”.
GR86 Have you had the call?

So I think they will if you optioned finance in the buying journey, the reason I say this is a bought a GRY in May 21 and its due delivery in Aug 22, the 0% finance deal remains as I signed a contract effectively at the time of purchase therefore Toyota seem to be honouring the agreement at time of sale.
I also asked having opted for cash whether they'd honour the current finance rate as I'd like to switch to finance - she said they could move me to finance now but means doing a hard credit check so was going to ask TGB finance team whether they'd keep the current offer for those who bought when they did but not taking delivery for a year. Its unprecedented at Toyota to have such large lead times (excluding the GRY), so its not a common problem to deal with, she did say she'd get back to me and when she does I'll post on here.

Not had the call and tbh was starting to look elsewhere for a Yaris or an Alpine but just had a couple of emails, one to say my order has been added to MyT but an even better one from my dealer saying eta of 19th sept

Good news! I assume you're one of the early birds in terms of when you ordered?Not had the call and tbh was starting to look elsewhere for a Yaris or an Alpine but just had a couple of emails, one to say my order has been added to MyT but an even better one from my dealer saying eta of 19th sept

It's odd it's so inconsistent. It's been on MyT since a week after ordering, call was a little later but didn't give exact dates. Nothing since, still no dates in metadata, dealer still doesn't see a date. Almost feel forgotten.

It was 10:47 but would have been a lot earlier if I had phone signal as had to go outside to get Barclaycard code for the deposit 3 times lol
Can't get my head round what Toyota are up to so your order was confirmed at 10.47 and you've had an ETA of September but no call? My order was confirmed at 10.28 and I've had nothing but the generic emails & the last time I spoke to my dealer (was a few weeks ago) they couldn't see anything on the Toyota system, like a lot of people I've no idea what's going on & Toyota don't seem to have made many calls recently, at this rate not sure we'll all have had calls in the promised 12 weeks.
Hopefully when we do eventually get our cars this disorganized chaos will be forgotten

The allocation order may be based on the time the car was ‘added to the basket’ rather than the time the email was sent out hence the disparity we are seeing.

Now, that thought makes a lot of sense, hadn't considered that..
Gives me a positive feeling on my 10:56 order!!

Well I had the car in the basket by 10:06 (I really was clock watching!!) and had confirmation email / ORCA by 10:14, appeared in MyT within a few days and even had the phone call last week to say ETA TBC but expect 2023...
I didn't watch the clock but would guess mine was in the basket about 10.20 with email at 10.28 so I'm guessing phone call sometime this year & car arriving err maybe later next year......or 2024??Well I had the car in the basket by 10:06 (I really was clock watching!!) and had confirmation email / ORCA by 10:14, appeared in MyT within a few days and even had the phone call last week to say ETA TBC but expect 2023...
Thank you - that is definitely good news
Wow. That is quick.
Can I ask what colour and whether AT or MT?

Red and manual trans.
10.13 order, silver manual - I was contacted last week but on holiday so had “the call” today.
Looking like 2023 delivery, Toyota app still has “processing order”. It’s unlikely I’d do so but asked about changing colour - if so it would move me to the back of the queue but I would still get a car apparently.
They’re not sure whats happening with the demos yet (at dealers or moving round the country) - will see if I can view a couple in the flesh to confirm colour (July/ August I guess) and of course try one then.
I did suggest a demo day at Silverstone for those with an order - he liked the idea but he’s not in marketing! Perhaps there’ll be some GR themed events in the future.

Same spec as me.
