Just found out that the build date has now been advanced by two weeks ! Delivery mid April. The car is now "closed", so I can't add new stuff anymore (which, financially, is a good thing :-))
The wait is killing me :-)

Congratulation. But if the wait is killing you, just imagine how we in the U.S. are feeling. I reserved my e-ton on December 4, 2018 and I am still in the reservation confirmed stage. At this pace I might not get delivery until August.

Unfortunately, in Belgium, mid April is still 6 weeks away ;-)

For those who are doubting the recent rumors about production delays... mine has just been pushed back one month (delivery was set next Wednesday, now set for early May). Not amused.

I believe you. I've read multiple stories about battery shortages, but in your case the car has already been built. Perhaps there are more programming adjustments? I wonder if they are releasing more of the battery capacity. It's a bit of torture to be so close, and yet so far!

My car went through the paintshop on Friday (April 5th) and will be built this week . 2 weeks delay vs. original schedule.
