    Just got told that one MY24 XC40 ordered on 5th January can be picked up next Tuesday, 1th June. Not sure if it is MY24 or 25.

    Got information on another XC40, exact same dealership (Edinburgh) – ordered 5 days later on 10th January. “Car Build date is the 13/06/2024 and the planned dealer delivery date is the 26/04/2024. Once the car arrives i will give you a call to organize a hand over date.” A telephone call corrected the delivery date to 26/6/24

    So, first car ordered on 5th January delivered and picked up on 11th June. Second car ordered from same dealership on 10th January still for build today (13/6/24) and delivery 26/6/24.

    The second Car ordered (10th Jan) had its build date on 13/6/24 and arrived yesterday at the dealership, 5 days early.  I’m picking it up on Tuesday.

    Unfortunately, after a lot checking back through the Motability and Volvo orders, it seems the salesman ordered a Fjord Blue version when I said I wanted a Cloud Blue version.  I’m a bit gutted because the two colours Volvo have and I really don’t like are Fjord Blue and the Green they have.

    I’m just going to accept the car as I presume it will be a new order if I don’t.

    When I placed the order I received no paperwork at all.  If they had given me a copy of the order with the specs, I would have noticed it immediately and had it changed.
