French black one... also seena silver one heading opposite way
Looking forward to a photo of each colour then from your trip. Also, given your language skills K, we look forward to reports from multiple country owners!
Have the photos not displayed again?

Sorry to confuse you K. Your last photos were fine. I was jesting that you might next send photos of Fusion Red, various Greys, Denim Blue etc as you traverse the continent.

Yesterday (17/07) in Altrincham, spotted a busting blue, like mine, two cars ahead of me around 8.30am Stamford Road, Langham Road junction.

I drove from Kent to Cornwall last week, in total I did just under 1000 miles in a 10 year old slow, sluggish, underpowered, fully loaded Fiesta... It could barely get up hills in Dartmoor or St. Ives!
I've never driven a car without cruise control either and my god, my ankle was aching like I've never experienced before :lol:

The entire trip though and I didn't see a single XC40. Quite glad I didn't or I'd have been even more frustrated. I just can't wait to get my car now

Just drove past a denim blue Inscription on Bexhill seafront with a private 51 plate reg.
Every time I'm in this town I see a new XC40!

Spotted this afternoon about 16.30, D4 R-Design (or FE) in White Altrincham. I let you out across Regent Road onto Groby Road, then you pulled into park just in front of me.

They're out in force this week! I've seen 4 today - 3 in Robertsbridge (1 grey, 1 black and 1 blue), 1 on the A21 near Battle (blue). Yesterday I saw one (silver) and the day before I saw 2 (denim blue Inscription and black momentum)

I reckon there's going to be quite a few in the areas I drive through, all of them making me want mine even more :lol:
