Got an update from the dealer still showing a February delivery date. That’s the last three monthly updates showing the same delivery, surely it can’t change at this late date.

Dealer should be able to give you the scheduled production week, Brydo. Mine was then 11 days from production to delivery at the dealers. It looks promising…
brilliant news
Unfortunately I have suffered a brain injury and occasionally I get confused and often say the wrong thing.
Will contact him later today wigwam and see what he says.

Anything i post over three lines long please assume it is an article lol.Brydo when did you order it xc4o phev why did you want give up your other xc4o
i ordered xc40 awd in october the day before it was taken off motability but motability accepted the order i got a call last week from volvo to say they cant supply the car but the new 2023 model will be out next week and he will let me know what model what fuel ev or phev and what advance payment, but id need to make a new application
i want awd/4×4 but theres not much choice left in mid size cars
oh what to do
martinod the petrol xc40 is giving me mid to high 20 mpg so thePHEV looked a far better option for the type of journey’s i make, mostly local.

Id be very careful Martinod and talk to Motability first and certainly before the dealer cancels your existing order. With Volvo not on the scheme at present I can’t see how they can place a new order for you, unless Motability agrees to an exception which I should think is unlikely.
yeah, not sure how it can be worked if its not on scheme. umless they just do a swap, but everything including ap will be wrong etc..

However hopefully you settle with this xc40 you’ve ordered now ?..

I would hope that a Volvo would last a lot longer than 10 years. I knew someone who rattled around in one that was about 20 years old!
There’s an old barge type Volvo estate down the road here K reg so will be 30 this year. It’s not I would call tidy but it goes.
Yes Glos Guy I owed 2 in 30 years, my last written off, otherwise I’d still have it, never to have ventured on to this site…. Wow how lucky you all are ?..
Always fancied the cross country estate, not to late yet, well maybe to lowI had a Volvo 850 GLT(?) 2.5 Estate for a while years ago when between cars. Only about 3 years old though. Lovely to drive, but it was black and looked like a hearse ?

had an old barge volvo myself. it had been a company directors car and was beautiful in and out and even had a car phone which was rare for its day. great car and only sold it when my mechanic said to. one of the niceest cars i ever had. wasnt a drivers car tho, just a comfort machine.. my big old saab was the opposite and a real piece of driverability. loved that car until it just got too old to be economic. shame saab went belly up

He said his vw van had problems & had to use the Volvo for stock pick up.
His description, what a banger but it started after months…
My reply it got the job done lad..
He agreed..
Those old barges are relatively climate efficient, as opposed to 3x cars producing 3x less emissions scrapped every 10 years. Not sure the exact figures, but I’m pretty sure it’s more climate friendly to run a classic than a new electric car.
Please stop Capuchin so tempted to get a project car..?
Car is made just waiting on delivery, will still be a couple of weeks away, i think, but good news at last.

Anything i post over three lines long please assume it is an article lol.What colour Brydo, inside and out did you go for..?⬜️⬛️??
Oh, that’s exciting. Remind me when you ordered please Brydo.
Black with blonde interior ajn.
Gja we ordered in June last year. Original delivery date was August/September, then October, November, December then February. Might make it in February but could be first week in March.

Anything i post over three lines long please assume it is an article lol.Thanks Brydo. Ah, mine was ordered 1st September. Wasn’t given an indication of time initially, but the my did quote April when I chased it up in December. I can see that slipping to June. I’m not too bothered to be honest, as I’m quite happy with the current car.
GjA I was really angry with the dealer as the other two dealers I went to said December/January for the order and this guy said he could get it in September at the latest.

Anything i post over three lines long please assume it is an article lol.Oh dear. He was either deluded, mistaken or flat out lying. My dealer was honest from the off and said he couldn’t really say when the car would turn up, other than it likely wouldn’t be 2021.
Well the guy who dealt with our order simply flat out lied GJA,
I should’ve known really…the wooden nose ??
