Hello from Chriscroft in Lincolnshire

Probably ordered the last FE in the UK, on Friday 16th March, apparently the cut off was 5pm, and mine was ordered at 4.35pm.
I had just popped into the the VW dealers on Thursday for some wiper blades, and driving past the Volvo dealer close by spotted a XC40 in the carpark and showroom. Popped in for a look, and 24hours later........ordered.
I have owned an XC60 for 8 years, brilliant vehicle. But WOW the xc40, what a SUV the same as the photo below..... :D :D :D T5, looking forward to the Polestar tuneup when available :mrgreen:

When i order mine I was told July, I haven't even asked for an update..... so heaven knows.....

An order on the 22nd March, you did well. I wonder if yours was already in the pipe line, pre-ordered by the dealer??
