what are the current lead times?
Looking to order a pure 5 dr with a few extras and was wondering what the general lead time was now? Has the 6m's lead reduced since 24hr production started?

RE: what are the current lead times?
Very much depends on the Dealer.
Some Dealers will have pre-booked build slots on the assumption they will take an order before they have to confirm the build spec. If you find one you'll get a shortish lead time.
Other Dealers will have sold their current allocation and have a queue of buyers waiting their orders. They will have a longer lead time.
I've heard the average wait is about 6 months but can be longer for certain specs/engine options.
Also heard the factory is working 24 hours a day for 5 days a week and also doing some extra production at weekends although it does need some downtime for maintenance.

I was told last weekend that the lead time at Likes, Hay on Wye, is January, if ordered then.

I must have been lucky then, because I ordered mine from Likes mid September and expect delivery 12 November.

Is that the shortest lead time so far? I thought 3 months was good .......
