Seen two osmium grey; one on the A3 and one on the M25, and then a red on the A1.

Have covered cars myself with ALA but my girlfriend used them, and they paid out very speedily no quibble after her write-off a couple of years ago.

Highly recommended.

To add to the complication, lease cos will have a panel of dealers across the country based on region. That said, Nationwide are Just a finance broker, a finance company will be funding and managing; so sometimes they nominate the dealer - or set terms, so it actually won’t matter to the broker.

If anyone has ordered a Fusion Red T5, I saw it on a transporter heading west last night on the A14...

...Which leads me to ask, where do these land in the UK? Thought it was Immingham, but the full transporter heading in the other direction leads me to think otherwise.

I ordered mine on 14th March - the dealer I got it from sent out a message on Carwow on the 10th talking about extended order books til that day, and told me that he'd taken 14 orders in the time between.
