Seen my first one in the wild today. Bursting Blue, driving through Romsey. Better not be a regular thing, it’ll drive me mad during my wait until October! 😀
XC40 T5 FE, Fusion Red, 20inch wheels.
Ordered 15th March. Delivery, originally June, delivered 26th October.

I keep wondering if I'm annoying someone waiting for theirs when I'm driving around and don't see any.

p.s For anyone on the M56/M6/M1/M25/M20 tomorrow - mine will be headed from Warrington via tunnel to Chalons en Champagne. . . then Saturday down to Les arcs . . .

Sounds fun, enjoy! I'm doing M23/M25/M1 so we may well pass albeit on opposite sides of the carriageway.

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!
