Question Australia - delivery delays

Hi All,
i"ve ordered my GLS 450 mid-December with production scheduled for first week FEB. Yesterday was advised that all GLS production is now moved to March with my scheduled for the first week of March.
Is anyone in Oz had their GLS delivered on time?

Ordered my GLS early December. Ticked the e active body control option. There's a delay on the part, so production wont start until April and delivery won't be until May.

Sad for you guys but it seems to only be Australian orders. Or not European anyway...
