Having just placed an order for a new Renault Megane E-Tech EV60 Iconic (Ceramic Grey with Diamond Black roof) on 27th June 2023, I would be interested in the real current factory order lead times this year in 2023 (UK).
Please note I am not interested in new cars from stock. So if you have picked up a brand new factory ordered Megane this year, could you let us have the details.

Order Date: e.g. 27/06/2023
Model: Iconic
At the Dealers Date: 22/09/2023

I am fully expecting up to 6 months (if I am lucky), Renault are saying 3 months, lets see.

It would be nice to have some real world values :D

Received an update and my VIN number:

Megane is currently on it's way to our Import Centre in Bristol. It's estimated to arrive here by the end of next week. Delivery currently is estimated for the end of August / beginning of September. Please bear in mind this is currently an estimate and no official dates.

I ordered mine on 24/06 (same colour/spec) and it showed as left the factory on 15/06 and arrived in uk on 29/06. I got a phone call from the dealer on 6/07 explaining that the car was on hold for "technical issues" and was expected to be released at the end of July or first week in August. My original delivery date was end of August, so still on track for that

Have they said what the "Technical Issues" are?

I did ask at the time, but the dealer told me that they aren't told what the technical issues are, although he did say that they could include software updates.
