Does anyone know if any dealers are still offering a D4 FE?? Frustratingly after test driving one today and not googling prior to today, I didn't know the FE was essentially a limited edition car. Now I'm just trying to see if anyone, anywhere has one available to order.

I was at Sturgess Leicester on Thursday and they said they were still taking orders, can’t confirm as I ordered mine in January.

Waiting to hear on a delivery date as they said the ‘pipeline’ is full of dealer stock orders at the moment but that could flip around

One of the broker sites says there are D4 FE available from Paul Rigby Volvo Birmingham, Marshal Volvo Leeds and Lincoln Volvo.

If you want/need the features the FE has then from what I've seen it'll save you money compared to configuring it yourself.

Its going to be supply v demand. If you don't have it, someone will.

You need to decide how much you want it. Wasn't as bad for me as I'm leasing. I was initially quoted £3.6k off via carwow, this dropped during launch week but then on Friday all 5 dealers increased the discount again. Not sure if this was due to the fact they couldn't get them so wanted to tempt me through the door to chat. I'd already ordered though

Grab it. But make sure they confirm the order and give you a delivery date.

Just had my T5 FE XC40 confirmed verbally this morning by the dealer. They say it will probably be without headlamp washers but can't be definite which is amazing, so Crystal White T5 petrol with Charcoal and 19" alloys. Delivery is being projected as June/July, so looks like they will be making the First Edition for a while yet! Will update again when I get this confirmed in writing!
