Just in case, you did have the appropriate letter after - 1FA6PA and before the partial VIN? ie

C = Coupe GT
F = Convertible GT
J = Coupe GT350
T = Coupe
U = Convertible
My convertible has a 'P'
1FATP8Pxxxxxxxx

I have the full VIN, it appears on ETIS but no window sticker yet.

yeah they changed the loadout for VINs for the MY18's i can't remember who i deciphered it for a few weeks back, but it's earlier on in this thread (probably 2 or 3 pages back)

So have they changed the 'F' for a 'P' for 2018 convertibles? Or could that be RHD specific?

Sorry, forgot to engage brain after seeing the site I've used in the past for decoding VINs had finally included the codes for MY18 so just did a cut and paste.

Ford seem to have accounted for the reduced HP caused by having to modify the headers on RHD cars therefore P8P is now RHD GT convertible whilst P8N is RHD GT coupe; I think the site I saw that on stated the hp figure rather than RHD but I cannot find it now.

Great posting thanks Steve. Found my car by adding 1FA6P8 to my partial vin; no window sticker as yet

Estimated Production date for my car: 20th August 2018. So nearly a month after everyone else (end of July?) despite being ordered on the same day.

Estimated arrival date at the dealership: 13th October 2018

Still no finance figures though. :shrug:

That'd be odd if that's the case. Do the striped cars first then move onto the solid colours (mine's solid black).

Stripes do get laid after they're painted.

Here's the update screen from the dealership, too.

I highly doubt it'll arrive early October if its being built late August. When do you expect delivery of your July cars?

It has estimated delivery of the 22nd September which is quite quick, maybe it’s because they are delivering direct to the UK but who knows :shrug:

Is your vin higher or lower than Flamesey vin?
