Agree. Credit where credit is due.

On another note - followed up dealer today after 3 and a bit months after ordered about timing for an NSC. Was told they haven't had any updates on them since April?

Thanks everyone.

This stuff is our bread and butter though as I have a logistics software company. The level of detail we have on the movements of a case of beer in Australia will make your eyes water. :gossip:

Pity we can't say the same for a whole vehicle :headbonk:

I thought that the provision of the NSC to customers might have made a lot of inquiry work for Ford AU and they decided to hold off on providing that which may explain the inconsistency. I decided to look at the consistency of the Order Date -> VIN supply and that seems quite consistent being 7 to 8 months.
I'm only looking at orders placed this year as things would have had time to settle.
So interested in time between order placed and VIN date if any of you who ordered this year can provide that. My guess is 7.5 months is the average

Thanks!

So far for all orders (that didn't jump the queue due to cancellation) from Dec 2015 on have all had a 7 to 8 month Order -> VIN wait. I haven't seen enough to be certain but starting to look consistent
