As the signature says, Ordered 12/04/2019 (Factory Order) ...... 1.3 DiG-T 160 N-Connecta 5dr DCT, Ink Blue, Heat Pack. I have been quoted ABOUT 12 weeks.

Does anyone have any experience of orders that have recently been fulfilled?

I was reading an article on the Daily Mail website earlier and someone left a comment saying they were told 2 to 3 months for delivery of their Qashqai, which they ordered on the 5th March!

I ordered a UK built Nissan Qashqai 1.3 Tekna+ automatic on 5th March. I was today advised that there is no date for delivery and it could be another 2 to 3 months with no way of determining when it's likely to be. This doesn't really tally with a lack of production and with such a lot of excess capacity you would think it would be available very quickly. Wonder what's happening at Nissan.

    I think you will find it's probably down to the delays caused by the introduction WLTP regulations. They have caused untold issues to the supply chain since September last year.

    It relates to supply chain and their ability to forecast the future , everything else said is rubbish

WLTP regulations came in September 2017, so can't see that has any bearing on it.

As I posted early April (see attached) could this be one of the problems, new production plans (Tekna +) related. Also there are a couple of new “Special Models” being offered at present with extras which could affect production planning - Dave 🤨

Just a thought, several manufacturers planned a “Shut Down” after the “Brexit” date of 29.03 (which did not happen) for Maintenance / Service reasons, is it possible Nissan planned the same.

“Just to give you an "Heads Up" on the Tekna + Model. We had completed our "Spec" on a new QQ Tekna + and discussed this with our Sales Guy. Last week we received a written Quotation to look over, but this week we have been informed that there are some Upgrades in progress for the Tekna +, so we need to re-visit and check things out what is what !.
Just as limited Information at present : Production start is in May .........”

Just read this could this be the problem - Brexit ? Production Cut backs generally. “Car production down 14% in March - a 10th consecutive month of decline” - Dave ☹️

I have read a lot of press about car production cutbacks and with the current economic climate, not surprising. But this a factory order, does this not go through different channels to normal production?

Colin, Thanks for that good article. As stated there appears to be several factors involved, firstly the Diesel Problem, then the follow up to the quick change to Electric Vehicles and then Brexit. Please appreciate that I read these web articles out here on a daily basis so I might be missing some of the UK near to the truth facts - Dave 🤨

Are you based in the UK, stevei?

I presume you are, and 12 weeks sounds a long time, especially with all this talk of falling car sales over the past few months.

I ordered mine on 9th Feb (1.3 DIG-T 140 Tekna+) and it was delivered on 15th March, only 5 weeks, which I thought was excellent given it was over the March 1st plate change period.
