Do you know is that is December earliest or must be taken before December.

I was just told December delivery. I didn't ask specifics because my current lease is up on 28th November so December works for me. Worth asking Scott if he can get you one quicker if needed...

I've just spoken to Tesla, there will be a mass cancellation for orders placed at the wrong prices, there will be an SMS and email coming round today. That will give instructions on how to request a refund for the deposit through their app, which will then take 14days to process.

Anyone heard back yet? I spoke to someone at Tesla Leeds this morning - they said much the same and said if you wanted to proceed with the correct pricing (c.£400 a month) you'd need to place a new order. I ordered one without giving my mobile number so haven't had a text (have since added it via the Tesla app) but also haven't had an email re the £200 deposit (which they have said is going to be refunded for everyone).

Mine landed at 3:30, suggests the refunds will be automatic.

Tesla email said:

For a short period on the evening of 1 July there was an error on our Model Y webpage which caused incorrect finance options to be displayed. This error has been rectified.

We are cancelling all affected orders.Your order is now cancelled. We will refund the £200 order fee and any accessories purchased within the next 3 working days. Please note, depending on your bank, it may take up to 14 days for the funds to show in your account. We apologise for any confusion or inconvenience caused.

For more information or to discuss ordering a Model Y, you can request a call with one of our Advisors.

The other way. My A6 goes back in May, so I’d stretch to March, but before December wouldn’t work.

I’ll give him a ring, he sorted the A6 for me so might be a bit more flexible.

New offer on the BMW M2 2dr DCT

https://centralukvehicleleasing.co.uk/car-leasing/...

That is a fantastic deal and the best part of £2k less than I signed up to a couple of months ago.

Assume it's because facelift imminent.

Could they be the facelift?

I guess they will be if not available until December.

To anyone who took out the recent Suzuki Swift deal with the standard orange colour, I've been told they won't be delivered until at least December. Anyone else been told the same?
Strangely enough they've got plenty of metallic colours available next month if I pay the extra £600🙄

Not that strange. Most people (yourself included) opt for the free / cheap colour option.

Once that allocation goes, it’s the better but more expensive colours that are left.

[Jeff-m7t4l]

The point I was trying to make is that I was promised July/August delivery (when my old car goes back) which isn't going to happen now, unless I pay another £600. The cynic in me says they were never available....

Got my Tesla cancellation email too! Fun while it lasted

looks way cheap does that, its not far off what I paid for an M2C lease in 2018

[ACCYSTAN]

Regarding the Suzuki swift

It’s likely your dealer didn’t get in on the allocation, I know of someone who has a base colour model picked it up a few weeks ago.

There will likely be base colour models in the batch set to arrive in July but your dealership simply was slow reserving one as with the increased demand due to the lease deal there would have been a set number of each colour.

Have you asked them to split the cost of metallic 50/50? If you make this offer and threaten to cancel they may be more inclined to do a deal.

The email I got about the M2 this morning stated it was the LCI with 480hp. If they’re factory orders (which they are) then it’s the LCI as they aren’t taking orders on the old one any more.

That's correct, it's the new facelift.

Bum, didn’t realise the M2 only had 4 seats. That’s me oot

It’s a 2-dr sports coupe, you expected it to have 5 usable seats?!

Didn’t expect anything. Really haven’t given it any thought.

I’ve certainly had smaller cars with 5 seats.

To make matters worse, for such a big "small" car, rear leg room is poor

Well, after 3 years out of the leasing game I've just fisted the kumquat.

Gone for a Lexus NX450H Premium at 424 per month on 6+24 with 10K Miles via lease for less and currently on lease loco. Should arrive in September.

I fancied a PHEV for a while as I think it will suit our use case and I'm not yet ready to go full EV. Wanted a family bus that didn't have a compromised boot due to to the PHEV gubbins - looking at you BMW, Mercedes & Audi. Volvo V60/V90PHEV would have fitted the criteria but the NX seemed a decent deal.

As a bit of an SUV naysayer over the years I'm looking forward to seeing how an SUV fits in with family life.

Is this from CVL?

I asked this morning they are all factory order LCI. Only non cost option is white. Most other colours are £600
