BrownMotoring Posted February 24, 2018 Share Posted February 24, 2018 Hi Rcross, Sounds encouraging. What spec did you order? - I'm interested as I ordered a spec'd up Titanium X on the 19th Jan with an ETA of week end 17th Mar - right when I'm on holiday! As far as can be seen, they have been focussing on the ST-Line X's this last few weeks and adding the Titanium X's to the mix now too. My last update on Monday was the car was in still in 'Segmentation' but I'll see if that's changed when I get my next update on Monday. I'm starting to feel confident that I'll get my hands on my new pride and joy much sooner than I expected when first starting the process, maybe sooner still than evenj the dealership estimated.

Titanium X ecoboost 100 in deep impact blue, with park assistance pack and drivers assistance pack. The car was built 20th Feb and I have bee told the estimated date of delivery to me is the 10th March. Slightly frustrating because i'm selling my old car privately and was told the fiesta want going to be here until April / May. Now got a rush to sell my car but I can't complain. Very excited to get the new one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrownMotoring Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 Just had update from dealer, excitement is building. Car built and waiting at Vlissingen ready to be shipped over. Still on track for delivery during week ending 17/03 although I'm hoping sooner as I'm only on holiday that week (face palm moment and wondering if it's possible to convince my wife, if push comes to shove, to make a diversion to collect). Anyway, ordered 19th Jan fully expecting to get it until May at earliest, August at latest. Pleasantly surprised but now just excited, to be honest. Poor wife will be relegated to a distant second for a few weeks. I expect this forum thread will be filling up with photo's of the car cars very soon. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you can get ones that fit in the cup holders. The dealer should be able to advise if they can order them for you from Ford. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mavroz Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 Further update..... Not about our car but the car the dealership loaned us.......... Sorry for going a little off topic but someone decided that they wanted to use the back of the mrs loan car to stop on, on a roundabout this morning. The guy was driving a 2 yr old Focus St3. He said he didn't see the traffic had stopped on the roundabout and was watching cars coming/stopping from the other direction. Seemed like a very nice guy, admitted full liability and it was a company car. The mrs car has a split in the nearside of the rear bumper with paint missing and the bottom honeycomb grille is smashed, no airbag deployment. His front grille and headlight and maybe bumper is smashed she said. All parties happy, dealership informed and all they ask is that we tell the insurance company after the damage assessment that they wish to carry out the repair work as it is their vehicle. Thankfully, and everyone has said, at least it isn't your new car you are waiting for.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chr15_HD Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 New Car Reg chosen... Dealership just called to say it's on it way to them and they should now have it by W/E 17/3. The guy and the dealership may be more excited than me as he say's it may be the first ST-Line X they've at their his dealership! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will give them an ETA unless there's a problem. (although recent weather may affect things). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were told ours was showing shipped but told them we don't want it registering until the new Reg on 1st March. (Not sure what happens when you have a private plate but they have had the V750) That is the last we heard, hopefully they will contact us when the car is received by the dealership.
