I'm having a hard time waiting!!! My car is somewhere between Emden and Halifax and the anticipating is almost killing me :)
Dude, you're in the home stretch! If the car is already en route, it means you'll have it within 2 weeks.. perfect timing for summer. I got mine at the end of December and wasn't driving it until there was no more snow on the ground, so I only just started enjoying it.

Where in Ontario are you?

Wow - that must've been tough ... having the car but not being able to drive it!

I do count myself lucky in terms of timing.

I'm in Oakville.

Build was completed on 12 April and on Thursday I was told it’s on the boat due to arrive at Sheerness at the weekend. The sales executive said it will be about 2 weeks as the PDI is done at Sheerness. I was hoping to collect on the 10/11th but the dealer said might need a little longer.

It sounds like I am a couple of weeks behind you.

OBD2 bluetooth adapter and Car Scanner ELM OBD2 app shows manufacturing date (and date of calibration) of most internal units.

I entered the ECU identifiers menu then scanned over 120+ units. But I could not find the official vehicle production date in the output.

I’m following the instructions and get to the 4th step below, but can’t find the ‘preview tab’ - what am I doing wrong, please?!

  • while there, right click then choose "Inspect".
  • Go to network tab
  • refresh page so it fills up
  • find the line "orders?include-full-content=false"
  • click Preview tab on right side
  • there's an item there "productionImages". expand that. you'll find a URL. Cut and paste that url into a new browser window/tab.

You're on the network tab and seeing the list of files being downloaded yes?

Click on the name column to sort the components by name. You're looking for one that matches your commission number, Mine is "USMF8..."

There might be two or three with that name only one will have the data you're looking for.

Click on it and it should open up the preview of the file. Expand the line that says production images, then the entries for each image.

Not sure what has happened, but I’m trying again (at home this time) using Chrome on my Mac, but can’t even find the appropriate file “orders?include-full-content=false" anymore.

Maybe I’ve missed my chance?

I tried again this morning, and managed to go through the process. However when i get to the final step, I see the code shows 'hasProductionPictures: false"

So when I look at the generated image, I just got a stock picture, albeit in my specification:
