I have an update.
I tried my hardest to get a Mach E with the tech+ pack…but failed,i had an email this morning from a dealer saying he had located two one in space white and the other grabber blue…..neither are colours i could accept.
Another dealer said they had none with the Tech+ pack if i wanted a factory order it would be 9 months wait.
I phoned Ford customer services and spoke to them,as the Ford website which lets you check stock levels showed a Mach E in absolute black with tech+ was available,if i wanted i could put the car in my basket and bought it “online”, i asked customer services if they could tell me which dealer in the country had that car,he could’nt or would’nt divulge,so i gave up with the Mach E.
So last week i had sent an email to Allen Hyundai in Milton Keynes asking about the offer on the I5 Premium version which was available with a dealer discount do they have an I5 Ultimate,i got a short reply saying they did’nt have any offers for the I5 Ultimate 325 AWD.
After reading the happy ending to the Ioniq Saga thread,i thought i would give them another go in Milton Keynes but word my email differently….do you have an Ioniq 5 Ultimate 325 AWD in stock that i as a motability customer could have and pay the full £2899 AP.
Anyway they found one in the colour i wanted,and when i was asked for CRN number and DOB,i thought crikey its happening,with minutes my Mobility online account had been updated with Pin etc etc.
So i just wait now for the car to be moved to the MK dealership and i can arrange a visit to do the formalities,if it takes a few weeks i dont mind,i have got Charged EV fitting my Ohme box in the middle of the month,so fingers crossed everything goes smoothly.
I did make compromises with myself as i said in a post earlier in this thread,i will have to live without a rear wiper on the rear window,i will have to live with the bright white/cream roof lining instead of black,and the strange centre minimalist centre console.
