Been lurking on here for a while but this is my first post. Just ordered the base model in Magnesium and so I'm anxious to find out what the lead time will be. This will be a company lease after being told a few weeks ago that the MB A250e (PHEV) that I had on order from back in September 2021 had been cancelled! I've a nice shiny new Zappi charger on my garage wall with nothing to charge apart from my neighbours Tesla. I work in the electronics industry, have done for nearly 40 years and so fully understand the issues that all manufacturers are facing with semiconductor supply shortages, it's a nightmare.

Just ordered via lease company and received an estimated delivery date of October, I guess I should take this with a very large pinch of salt.

Thanks, i suppose its a good job i have the ability to work at home when i like.......

I can WFH but think I’ll take the day off when mine is delivered. Not sure I can be away from my desk for an hour and wouldn’t be able to concentrate anyway, I’d want to be out driving and playing with all the settings. I’ve ordered from what I’ve read and seen on YouTube videos, only seen them driving past, not even got close up to one yet 😳

 

[Nobby Plumbs]

Do you not have any 'spaces' nearby that you could test drive in? Well worth it

Unfortunately not. My daughter has actually got closer to one than I have, she came home from work the other day and said "Dad, I parked next to a Polestar, it looked great"

My JSON data is showing "Expected Delivery Date" as July 2022 for some reason. I find that highly unlikely, unless they are flying it over...

I only got the notification just over a week ago that my car has been built. App/Website still showing as October delivery.

Excuse my ignorance, but what is JSON data?

 

[Nobby Plumbs]

Some clever soul has figured a way to interrogate the hidden data about your specific order, using the Chrome web browser. Thread explaining how to do it is here...

Get more info about your order

First of all, it took me a long time before I could view my order detail page. Before that, I kept getting a "page not found." After some email back and forth with the CS, I now have access to that page. I ordered an SMLR through their official leasing company in Belgium (ALD) at the end of...

Just got an email from Polestar, got all excited only to find my estimated delivery date has been pushed back from October to March 😟Let's hope they can bring it forward.

 

[Nobby Plumbs]

Just seen January in my order details too. I'm stuck with my wallet taxing ICE vehicle for a few more months

Me too, did a quick calculation in my head as to how much I would lose, wish I hadn’t 😟

 

[Nobby Plumbs]

Still not had email to confirm build but have had email confirming delivery location which also showed the estimated delivery moving to December. Have you had that email?

Cheers

Yeah, exactly what I had apart from my date being March, do you wanna swap ? 😀😀

 

[Nobby Plumbs]

Ordered in April. Original delivery date shown as September, new delivery date now showing as December.

I have just contacted CS and they have told me that the car is scheduled to be built in July with a November delivery date.

That’s encouraging

 

[Nobby Plumbs]

With the delay, my lease car goes back a month earlier than the Polestar might be delivered. Expensive but I might try hiring for a month using a service like this: All-Inclusive Electric Car Subscriptions | Onto

Just a month! If the latest Polestar delivery dates are correct then my company lease will end up being extended by a year.

 

[Nobby Plumbs]

I ordered in June and have an unconfirmed build delivery date of 28/11/2022, I am fully expecting that is going to move back into 2023 reading some of the earlier messages. Was expecting 6-9 months at the outset so telling myself March 2023 and hoping that is reasonable!

I ordered in June and mine is showing delivery as March 2023.

 

[Nobby Plumbs]

I ordered 29th June and initially it was Nov, then Feb (which still shows on the Polestar App) but got an email from lease company for Jan and just checked the JSON and that Jan date is set in there so more than likely Jan..?

I put off ordering the electric charger until later in the year, will just depress me having it and not being able to use it - and if it develops a fault or doesn't work, I won't know for ~6months!

I had my charger installed back in February in readiness for the Mercedes’ a250e that I had on order but was subsequently cancelled. Finally got round to actually testing the charger at the weekend by connecting to my neighbours Tesla. He wasn’t happy when I asked for the 25p of electricity he had off me.

 

[Nobby Plumbs]

I ordered a month later than you and mine jumped from October to January 😭

Mine was ordered around the same time (late June) but my estimated date is March

 

[Nobby Plumbs]

Whoopy-doo, just had my estimated date brought forward from March to February 😀😀

 

[Nobby Plumbs]

The Eagle has landed! Very good experience, cars filthy due to severe weather last night.

Driver confirmed he'd collected from Upper Heyford. Its running 2.4 software.

Only had time to nip for a sandwich and some groceries, man its quick! Very happy with the Ohlins suspension too, I was expecting it to be too firm.

Oh and the Brembo callipers are MASSIVE!!!!!!!

What was the sandwich like?

 

[Nobby Plumbs]

So the car has arrived, won’t bore you all with pics and a commentary as it’s all been seen and said before, however I will say this.
This car is badass. 😂

Is that Magnesium?

 

[Nobby Plumbs]

The estimated delivery dates are forever moving, mine was 27-02-23 yesterday and now brought forward to 06-02-23.

 

[Nobby Plumbs]

Similar to mine - have you checked the VIN? Probably on the same ship

Just checked, on the Blanco Ace ETA 22/01/23

 

[Nobby Plumbs]

Same

You said 'same' twice, have you got two P* on order?
