After a long wait the T5 FE in bursting Blue has arrived home today, little too late to take pics. Driven just under 100 miles and its fantastic. We have lots of tech to learn about. Car has been detailed with Modesta Glass Coat by Paul Dalton at Miracle Detailing in Chichester expensive but well worth the investment! Dealer Snows in Southampton has been excellent throughout the long delivery period and Ethan there is a star. They provided a low cost V40 rental for nearly 2 months and have gone far beyond what I would have expected from a dealer! One small issue spotted on collection minor corrosion spots on the Alloys already in process as a warranty claim. Will post pics tomorrow, the drive today mixed town Southampton with all its traffic lights and Poole and motorway between the two achieved just over 26 mpg so not bad for such a new car. Wife has also driven and agrees its a great drive!!!! All in All a good day. Thanks to the team at Snows

Very nice!!
Expecting delivery of my D4 FE Bursting Blue in 3 weeks. After such a long wait I had been losing any feelings of anticipation or excitement, not seen one on the road since I ordered back in March. Seeing yours looking so shiny has rekindled those feelings, I guess the next 3 weeks will seem like an eternity...

Been out again today 88 miles visit to pub on Dorset coast absolutely fantastic have tested the Jaguar F and E pace , Stelvio, the VW range and previously having owned a Macan so far after near in 200 miles in 2 days the XC40 is a real hit. Wife has also been driving today and loves it! Been well worth the wait since March

Congrats- I’ve had mine for 2 months now and love it. No problems so far, I do think it’s a bit ‘thirsty’ but have been used to drinking a smaller engine diesel for the last 10 years! Enjoy 😀
