When i ordered my car i WAS unable to order BLIS or 360 Cam, but everything else was good to go.

Have you managed to add the camera now? I had the same problem but managed to add the camera on later.

Not bothered by the 360 cam, decided to upgrade the audio to the HK instead!

Ordered T8 Recharge R Design Pro end June. At first it was delivery in Sept, then likely October and yesterday I was told end November. BLiS was also removed.

I was under the impression that the recharge models for the UK market were all made in China, but I've juts been told by the dealer mine is being made in Sweden. Anyone clarify this? I'm also being told the car isnt even built yet despite the delivery date being this week, which has now been pushed back several weeks.

I have a T6 Recharge R Design that was made in China around 9th August. It's currently somewhere in Europe with estimated delivery of 19th September however looking like it will be earlier based on the speed it's been travelling.

Mines got delivery of 15th sept now. Told the dealer there's no hope if it's not even built 🤣

To be be fair if it's made in Sweden it's possible. It only takes a day to build a car and a couple of days to transport to UK. I wouldn't give up hope just yet. If it gets to Friday and you don't hear anything then you may have to give up hope...

Building a car doesn't take long at all it's the transport that causes the delays. Coming from China you're talking 22 days and that's if everything goes like clockwork. The cargo ships can get from Gothenburg to UK port in less than 24 hours.

Just spoken to my dealer to get an update. Car builds are allocated 5 days but, it would seem, that mine is down for 3. Not to worry, it’s still on schedule for delivery to the dealer by 5 Oct, which is great news.
