What are Rockar doing to help in this situation?

Here at Rockar, we are aware of the delay in delivery times, and we are trying everything we can to speed these up for you. And so, we have introduced priority build to vehicles that include elements and accessories we know a more likely to get built quicker.

Certain accessories have longer lead times on them making delivery slower therefore we have created this selection of popular vehicles with engine sizes and specifications. We know that these are available with a quicker lead time than if you were to build the car yourself not knowing which elements are more likely to delay the build process. Priority build has been developed as we are aware of elements and accessories that are more likely to be built quicker meaning you can get your car delivered much faster. We have included a range of our most popular vehicles and then it chosen the specifications and engine sizes we know will be built faster – priority build.
