Spotted a Bursting Blue D4 FE (I think) today at Overwater Marina in south Cheshire. Stopped to have a word but the car headed into a secure area behind a locked gate. If you are a member on this board give me a shout. I think we are twins. :?:

I don’t know if there was a meet in East Anglia yesterday, but I saw three driving from Aldeburgh to Leeds, one in Aldeburgh, and two on the A14. Never had more than one in a day before.

Been away for a week or so.

Saw a Red R-Design with two bikes on the roof on M25 Clockwise near Chertsey on Friday 27th July, followed by a White R-Design exiting M25 clockwise at Leatherhead later that day. Saw the white one 2/3 more times in the next half hour (pretty sure it was the same one).

Then on the Saturday morning saw a Black one heading East on the A303 as I was going West.

In Devon I saw a white one briefly.

Didn't see anymore on the way back though, still pretty rare!

I wasn't expecting to see another XC40 so soon as I spend a lot of time in another country.

And it wasn't even an FE model. Grey-ish looking near Whickham, Newcastle-upon-Tyne today - was passing it the other direction with a rather heavy right foot so couldn't work out if it was a Momentum or Inscription.

Like buses, two more seen today, a white one in my village, and an-all black at Gateshead MetroCentre. I'm getting disappointed now, I don't want to see too many. :D

I’m in the same boat xc40fun! There seems to be one in my village now, which I was hoping I’d be first! Never mind. Common as muck now!

I haven't seen one up close since ordering, the only time I have was visiting the dealer out of hours and just looking at the two on the forecourt. Sad I know and a Friday night...

I then take a trip and see a T5 in white in the parking garage at Disney Springs Florida.

It takes going to another country to see one up close, or perhaps I just need to take a trip up north as thats where they all seem to be being spotted.

Hopefully not long now!!!

Saw another two yesterday. One in Hastings, white with 19" wheels and headlight washers. Another on the A21 Robertsbridge Bypass, Bursting Blue.

I thought I'd get jealous the more I saw them but it's actually making me feel relaxed because I know they're coming out pretty quickly now and mine's not too long of a wait anymore. The only thing I'm worried about is that where I live there seems to be a million of them it doesn't feel special anymore, I see more of them than any other SUV
