In its social media post it says it is "currently working hard to reinstate as many affected pre-orders as possible."
The firm sends cars from its UK business to its US business - meaning it pays both export and import taxes on any cars it sends across the Atlantic.The company also said it is frustrated that
to reduce tariffs on cars to 10% up to a quota of 100,000 vehicles is taking so long to come into effect.The fact that Easter fell in April this year, which meant there were fewer working days, was another reason car making fell, the SMMT said.The lowest April output before that - outside the pandemic - was back in 1952, when 53,517 vehicles were produced.
Car production for exports fells by 10.1%, said the SMMT, driven by falls in demand from the UK's biggest export markets the US and EU.The group said the total number of vehicles manufactured in the UK for the first four months of the year was the lowest since 2009.
Nathan Coe, chief executive of online car seller Autotrader, said those exporting to the US have taken a bigger hit than the UK's domestic market, which he says remains buoyant.
"If you look at the UK market itself, actually, there's been more new cars sold, more used cars sold. But if you look at manufacturing itself, because of those export impacts, those numbers are down," he said.Last year, 34 couples tied the knot at Godney Farm, including Paul and Michelle Chorley, from Street in Somerset.
Mr Chorley explained the appeal: "We're quite outdoorsy people, so we wanted something that would give us that country feel."When we turned up and you see the view out the front, that is exactly what we'd imagined."
Mrs Chorley added: "It was really relaxed, the children were running about, the dogs were running about, the sheep and the cows were around, it was just what we wanted."The Churches are obviously unusual in having their own actual church, but earning more from non-farming business is not that rare.
