I've actually seen 4 this week.

A white FE in Penistone, a white FE in Jesmond, a black momentum in West Jesmond, and white FE/R-Design on the A1 travelling northbound (I was heading home from Newcastle).

I'm sure I'd seen a 5th but when typing out I can't fully remember! Definitely a lot more out there now

Recently travelled the length of England and back (500 miles each way) and never saw another XC40.

' Common as muck' in Yorkshire seen 2 today a T3 R design in Wetherby and the other an R design near Sherburn in Elmet both white. This is only the second time we have spotted any in 3K miles. They must be coming through production ,delivery and registration by now. That stop / start is still annoying, but everything else is an enjoyable driving experience.

Fantastic place isn’t it. I’m working up there 2-3 days a week at the moment and alternating staying in jesmond or in the indigo near the station. Loving it.

It is, I lived in Jesmond most of my time there. First year I was in Castle Sleazes (or at least that what we called it).

I was driving behind an XC40 today for a good few miles.
T5 R-Design in Bursting Blue.
I actually followed it for a bit longer than I needed to because I was just surprised by the colour. I don't know whether it was because it had a film of dirt or because it's overcast today but I just didn't like the colour...

Seriously doubting my colour choice now.

My second choice would have been Pine Grey but as that's unavailable in R-Design I don't know what to do. Fusion Red masks the rear tail lights and I don't like grey cars.

I saw my first XC40 in Chester (besides mine) last week, white FE parked outside Halfords near Sainsbury’s. The last weekend in Sicily saw a FE! Looked like there was a big Volvo promotion happening 😊
