I'm having a wobble.... Got fed up of the lack of updates and started perusing Autotrader the other night. Found a couple of nice looking F-Types and now I can't get them out of my head. If they were more local I would definitely be going to take a look.....

So... Toyota GB call me at 10:49 and advise me of an EDD of 2023. Then... My nominated dealer calls me at 13:52 to advise me that the car has appeared on their system (Compass I think he called it) with an EDD of 12/09/22.... :oops:

Just had my call from TGB. 10:13 order and I've been told ETA 2023.... To be honest I'm a bit miffed because they are supposedly allocating cars in order of confirmation time. Well there are at least 2 orders that were confirmed after mine that have an ETA of August and September.....

12 weeks !!! I'm going to think of it as 3 paydays..... Doesn't sound so bad.

At least we know something is happening somewhere..... It just seems to have gone so quiet, they don't seem to be calling anyone anymore.....

Do we have any idea how many of the current 177 have actually had the call ?

I'm not sure what impact the national holiday in Japan will have had on order processing. They had a shutdown from 29th of April until 8th of May with rumours of an extended shutdown due to supply chain issues. I guess the UK end can't do a lot if there is no processing going on at the other...

The whole atmosphere has been so much nicer over the last few days......

I still haven't had the phonecall but I'm assuming I've got a car because: 1. I have an ORCA number. 2. The My T App updated on my phone saying my order is being processed and I will be notified when they start building the car. 3. The Toyota Customer Portal states the order has been processed...

It's a national holiday in Japan until the 8th of May. And there is talk of an extended shutdown due to the global chip shortage. Even if you have an ORCA number (which I believe should guarantee you a car) and get a phone call, the car still won't be going into production just yet.

I'm with LV and my current Evora has a 2bular sports exhaust, BOE cold air intake and a Komo-Tec remap. They were absolutely fine about it.

I once ordered a new Alfa 159 and the communication was so poor, weeks later I had know idea where the car was, if it had been built or when I was going to get it. In the end I cancelled my order because I had sold my old car and needed transport....

I've had no phone call but the car is on the My T app and the Toyota website says 'Congratulations, the order for your new car has been processed and the factory has received the details.' Organised chaos....

Snap !

I've e-mailed them twice. The first time to query my number plate retention certificate as I didn't have it at the time of ordering. A few days later I got the standard we will be in touch in a few days to discuss next steps and in that e-mail she asked me to forward on my certificate when I...

Really ? Have you driven many ? Of course you have.....

Have you ever owned a Jag ? You remind me of someone who used to post on an XF forum. He/she had a similar user name...

Just had an e-mail from Toyota Buy Online. They will be calling in the next few days and have noted on my order that I have a number plate retention certificate. From the wording of the e-mail I am happy that I definitely have a car and won't waste time stressing about that. I can concentrate...

Don't forget they are RHD in Japan....
