Yeah, having heard from other forum members, it looks like some of us (obviously the less trustworthy ones) have had to pay up-front for cars they can’t deliver due to the indicator issue. Now they are panicking about holding over $100K for so long without delivery, so have had to come up with the work around by 3D printing indicators, which are going to have be replaced with original ones.
That's correct... the Australian Transport Regulations require commercial vehicles to be fitted with side indicators with a rear projecting "luminosity" considerably brighter than for non commercial so that the drivers of vehicles passing the commercial vehicles are more aware of an impending lane change...
I checked and was told they were only making some people pay a long way ahead if they lived in certain suburbs or parts of cities.
So Carindale is one of those suburbs ... besides, Ineos knows the address when the contract is prepared, so the payment terms should be consistent with the contract.
INEOS are selling them, at the new (higher) price.
Yeah Carindale is pretty much up there.
Mansfield ... lucky you weren't there when you put down the deposit ... you'd have had to have paid before productionYeah Carindale is pretty much up there.
We lived in BLackberry Street Mansfield back in 1991??

Sad thing is that I would struggle to afford my house now.
Holy crap - who put those on???
You are heading the wrong way...that is Sand Rover country
Has anyone got any evidence... anecdotal or otherwise, of this actually having happened? Are Ineos even allowed to do this (since the local dealer doesn't own the car)?
Yes it is a temporary solution. I’d be still waiting for my car otherwise.
On the 10th November 2022 at 2.23 hrs, Ineos issued a statement to all those who had orders in place saying any price increase would not affect current orders. They stated as follows " Since you have already placed your order, your price will remain unchanged" Thats pretty clear to me. They went on to say the increased price would only affect "new orders from 9th November 2022".
I am talking about cancelled orders that are then sold to someone else.
