When did you order, when is it arriving?

Mines is on the ship due to get it endish of July ordered it March ,150 v2 DSG with towbar.

Mine is a lease and is an In stock car. Due to dealer on 13/07/22, so should be with me by the end of July.

I just found out my early April ordered V2 190 has a build date of 1st September. Disappointed is an understatement since it was given with a “July” delivery date back in April. I’m now tempted to switch to an “in stock” V2 150 DSG as I need a car mid July, but I’m concerned by the power output.
I currently have an Ateca 1.5 manual with a 0-60 of 8.5s and can feel this lacking sometimes. The Formentor advertises 8.9s to 60.
How is everyone finding their 1.5s??

I’ve cancelled my Nationwide order. I can’t be waiting that long.
Picked up an ‘In Stock’ V2 190 and pick it up in a couple of weeks time!

Picked mine up today. Pretty happy with it, just a few infotainment system gripes:
- Sat Nav got completely lost for around 15 mins tonight - said I was driving through a field about 500m away.
- Road signs flicker now and again on the dash - pretty irritating.
- When playing music through Bluetooth, the next/back buttons don't work and it doesn't display any of the info about the track on screen.

And finally, came out after it being on the drive for literally a hour and some fuckin birds had literally covered it in crap, probably 20+ individual splats which had gone hard! Tried cleaning off and it's etched the clear coat already.

Delivered it to me (they use a third party contracted delivery service - can't remember who). I offered to collect if they filled it with fuel, but they refused.
I don't know to be honest lol - I think the smaller screen as it was built early May according to the docs I got with it.

Nice! Is that the Asphalt Blue? How's the Beats stereo? I've had Harman Kardon on my last two cars and am hoping the Beats matches up.

yes asphalt blue, I was a bit unsure about the colour when i ordered it but it's beautiful, it can look blue / purple / black depending on the lighting
The beats sound good from stock, i haven't had time to tweak the settings yet, but initial impressions are positive

Hi guys. Im from Estonia.
Ordered in august 2021 310hp, magnetic tech matt, brembo, beats, 360 cameras, panoramic roof, black leather, wheels „Exclusive 38/5“ R19 and car will be mine ~ in the middle of next week 6-8 july. Almost 1 year!!! I dont believe that i waited so long. Every day i see 2-3 different Formentors in my town, and almost all of them are also 310hp But usually people prefer non matt colour, without pano, 360....
I hope i will be happy next week
Unfortunately can't drive fast, because of break-in period, but it doesn't matter - i can just enjoy of this beautiful car!

I wish everyone that you get your cars as soon as possible!

Greetings from Estonia! Whole week everyday temp is ~30c ...

Collected this morning. Predictably some infotainment drama with the screen hanging when first trying to sync my profile, but resolved itself after about 15 mins and a cup of coffee served by a very nervous salesperson! Not much to report dynamically from a clogged up m25 drive home, but I think it’s a stunner in Desire Red, and the cabin is a great place to be

 

[seany72uk]

I agree, luckily my missus is pretty cool about it and in no rush

Missus has a phone call on Tuesday 28th June to say it had been shipped

I've never been a fan of red cars in the past but I saw a red Formentor out and about last week and it looked stunning, as does yours. Very nice.

I’m still waiting for a further update. was told the car was built and had been assigned a chassis number but was still at the factory. That was 2 weeks ago. No news since then….

Hello guys!

Yesterday I finally picked up my VZ3 with top view cameras and BEATS audio ordered 19 Nov 21 and what I car that is! The only thing missing is the virtual pedal for the electric tailgate and the engine cover but even if that can`t be retrofitted I can forgive it! However I find the audio very weak and with no base at all despite it is the beats one. I also could not find any audio settings at all in the menu. Has anyone managed to find something?

P.S: I don`t know what is the deal with blacking out the number plates as anyone on the road can see them but also did it just in case

Looks good and in black it also looks very menacing!

As for blanking out your reg. no. - forums are easy pickings for dishonest types to visit if they’re looking for a car’s registration number to clone and use on a (probably stolen) car that’s the same make and colour as yours for dubious / illegal purposes, so why make it easy for them?

As you‘ve said, anyone on the road can see your reg plate, but by blanking it out in your pictures, it reduces the chances of some low life cloning yours (if forums is the source they use) and you then getting the parking / speeding fines etc. that they’ve accumulated or your car’s clone being used for illegal activities, not to mention the subsequent hassle of you having to prove it wasn‘t you or your car involved in these illegal / dodgy activities.……... The police would probably also put a marker on your car’s registration number in an attempt to track down the clone vehicle ‘wearing’ your reg no., so you could get a number of visits from the boys in blue asking your whereabouts when the clone vehicle is picked up by ANPR cameras.

IMHO, much easier to hide your number on the forum and avoid the hassle.

Not sure if you've now found it, but in home screen view that shows you all the icons, you need to select the sound icon (purple with a little speaker at a 45 degree angle). There are 4 preset audio profiles - from memory they are called beats signature, active, inspire and voice. I agree the signature profile is curiously feeble. Active and Inspire are quite a bit better. You can adjust the EQ settings on all of them to boost the subwoofer and lower frequencies. You can also vary the surround effect on Inspire. In the past, I've also found that all speakers need a bedding in period and will improve a bit from the factory. Good luck!

Ive had a previous car cloned from autotrader.

Had an audi a4 on sale....someone called up...wanted the reg to do a finance check...never heard from them again.
Then a month later got a visit from the cops saying they had stopped a audi a4 with my number plate on it and wanted to check which was the authentic one.
Luckily the scumbag hadn't cloned it for long and didn't have any outstanding fines or tickets on it.
