The Broughton factory does not seem to be struggling at all to ramp up production !

Based on this information, final assembly of MSN7 should start at the end of January, with wing join around mid-February. Airbus should easily meet its committment of delivering the aircraft in 2014 - provided everything continues to go well in testing, and certification is granted as expected. We might even see a second delivery in 2014 ... |

The pace of production already seems to be one per month as planned. One month ago or so, MSN 6 was at the same stage.
