Mine arrived in the UK 2 weeks ago.
No one at TUK on line seems to have a clue when its going to move to Hendy Bournemouth
I can better that! They lost mine/didn’t have a clue where it was for approximately a week after it landed in their care.
Historically the dealerships were the weak link in the process of buying a car but this time around I’ve found the reverse. My dealer/sales exec was spot-on but TUK/Toyota online have taken incompetence to new heights!

It took just a little over 3 weeks to land at Portbury and looks like will be 2 weeks to get to the dealer. I need to go and buy a hat to eat as it is going on the transporter tomorrow apparentlyHi
How long from build to arriving in Portbury? Mines in build atm so just trying to get a clue how long it takes on that journey....
Enjoy it when it arrives

My dealer sent me a screenshot from his computer showing where the car is and when it's expected to go on the transporter to them so the info is out there. I'd check with your dealerMine arrived in the UK 2 weeks ago.

For a little while but think the Yaris will have to make way in the summer unfortunately

Has anyone received the email for processing order confirmation this month yet ?
My Toyota app said the car was at the dealers today. On Tuesday TUK suggested it would be 7-9 days.
I asked for handover, everything sorted for 6th May, but they want to push it back to the 10th.
There’s the go slow for BH and then the King’s Coronation to consider, so I’ll go with that date.
They have to do the sensors, order the spoiler, and I‘ve sent them screen shots for the doors and window software stuff. Can only hope it all goes to plan.

Looks like I'll be eating that hat then 
Car arrived at he dealers today, just under 2 weeks since landing at Portbury - so about 6 weeks since finishing build for those at that stage

Autocar reporting new allocation

Prospective buyers already on the waiting list for the sports car will be prioritised in new allocation

I think they are just making assumptions based on the email and the quote from Toyota his hardly conclusiveAutocar reporting new allocation

"Harrison said: “I am not aware of UK specifics, but it is accurate to say that we have done our best to alleviate some of the waiting lists in markets where demand has been highest.”

Did they ever officially confirm what the original allocation was?
According page 15 on this press release from Jan 2023, cars sold in 2022 were 180. Not sure if that means that was the allocation or how many were delivered in 2022.
“Toyota’s message that “when it’s gone, it’s gone” helped prompt unprecedented customer demand with the full UK allocation being snapped up within 90 minutes of going on sale on 20 April 2022”
Bit cheeky to say this then release a second batch IMO.
Worth a read with all the technical specifications at the bottom, including the official insurance groups MT 45 and AT 39.
