Anyone got their 2021 or 22 Discovery order pushed back?
I reached out to my dealer to do a follow-up on my order (2022 Discovery HSE R-Dynamic) since it's in the queue with a build date of 06/25 and a delivery date of 08/20. Unfortunately, my order along with everyone else was pushed back to 10/27. I'm sure it's due to chip shortages. I wish JLR was smart enough to stock pike these chips just in case but I guess not. Does anyone else get their order pushed back?

We placed an order in late June and was told it should be expected in Oct. (ended up buying an available one out of state) I'm guessing there's little chance it will arrive anywhere close to that. I swear I read somewhere the factory closed for a week a some point in July.

Update: 10/10 21
Got another update on my new vehicle. Its finally built! Now it's waiting at the port in the UK to be shipped. Hopefully by the time it floats across the big pond, the ports in the U.S. will open up since they're all backed up. The original delivery date is 10/27/21 however the new delivery date is 11/26/21. My salesman is hoping that it arrives sooner than that possibly be at their dealership by 10/27. Fingers crossed.

I was told by a sales rep today that all custom orders after 10/1 were being charged an extra 2% because of shipping price increases. I don't know if that was accurate or a negotiating chip for him.

How did you make out? Not sure where you live or what port it arrives in but NY/NJ ports have been moving pretty well. We had a container arrive last 2 weeks ago that was delivered in normal time. Usually a week, week and a half from port arrival date.
