I got the same call, our vehicles must be on the same transporter.
Will be interesting to see what route it takes tomorrow, whether it's starting North to any customers in Scotland then working down the country.

Same, I'm in West Cumbria so it's awkward country roads most of the way unless it takes the A66. I'm going under the assumption it'll be around 13:00/14:00 when it's at mine, of course I have absolutely no proof of that whatsoever. The 8AM-6PM malarky is very broad
I think it will be same as dan 2 vechile carrier so just urs and mine.Same, I'm in West Cumbria so it's awkward country roads most of the way unless it takes the A66.

I didn't mind my cupra sharing a carrier with a polestar I only know what one looked best
On a separate note those that have hybrid vehicles how convenient is home charging for you guys currently?
How much charge in the battery / fuel did your car come delivered with?I didn't mind my cupra sharing a carrier with a polestar I only know what one looked best
Mine come with just under 1/4 tank of fuel and 15°%battery
Shame about the battery to be honest, I would've thought that'd have been at least full
Still enough charge left to get the boost acceleration though, I guess! Although not sure I'll be giving it any launch controls until I've broken it in a bit
Ye the 15% will get you 2 miles to a place, whilst the fuel will get you about 50 Mile to a place to really not bad in hindsight, bound to find a fueling station within that mile range
Oh btw you don't need to charge to get acceleration but be warned you will eat fuel if the battery is Zero around 27Mpg or less but yes manual recommends 1000 Mile to break in, im driving it around Spiritly on Motorways and like an old lady everywhere else lol, but not killing it myself.
Fair enough, thankfully in my household there's an electric car so I can use the installed wall charger to charge the battery at a reasonable rate, where I aim to keep it topped up as often as possible to maximise the fuel savings, one of the reasons I bought the car in the first place.
That MPG isn't great at all! Although to be expected if it's charging the battery at the same time. I've got a 250 mile round-trip on Thursday evening which is a good 160 miles on the motorway, not ideal as I'd prefer to be varying the load, but won't go daft of course.
So if you run a 100% Battery make sure to hold the battery manager and hold the charge in apart from overtaking etc. and should use around a "1% In Kind" Ratio, making around a 150 Mile ish ( on good boy driving) just on the ICE itself but in winter things like Power/heating /Etc will take its toll but rag it everywhere im thinking that wont last too long lol.
N.B driving like above will return about 60MPG or higher seen to 80MPG/ battery alone is 300Mpg just dont set the battery manager to charge the car I seen 18 Mpg lol was about to give back at that point cause i didnt know what the hell i did but remembered i was fiddling the infotainment,. and Battery manager,.
