When did you order, when is it arriving?

Thanks, Im guessing it will stop at Southhampton on its way back? Dont think they would be unloading my car in Sheerness for Snow's Cupra?

Aquarius Ace never really stops at Southampton. The order will be Sheerness, Grimsby and then Port of Tyne. After that it’s usually back to Spain. Sheerness is the likely drop off point for your car.

@Leonardmj65 good news !
I've got a Formentor VZ2 310 on order which was ordered in may 2021.

I signed for it a month ago, had the possibility to still add the panoramic sunroof.

Nothing known at this point, no production week... Doesn't sound logical but that's the truth

Delivery does seem to be random. My VZ3, matt blue, sunroof, tow bar and emergency pack was ordered in May, the build date was mid October and it arrived with me today. The dealer said that he was surprised that it made it here too.

I drove it all of 12 miles today to the bodyshop for a complete XPEL covering and ceramics on the wheels etc. Can;t wait to get it back.

I was told that ordering today would be a delivery in September. Hold your nerve, you may be surprised when these things show up !

Yep! All seems very random. I too ordered my VZ2 310 late May. The build week was 9th August but only picking it up tomorrow.

It's arrived!! Picked it up on Tuesday from the dealer, and decent weather today so the first chance for decent pictures.

Loving it so far, and lovely to drive. Just need to get to grips with the infotainment etc. and set things to my liking now.

Very nice, I’m chuffed for you. All the best people choose Graphene Grey!

😁 thanks. Everyone so far loves the colour and is definitely the thing that everyone comments on.

Thanks, yeah kind of early Christmas pressie. When I ordered on 1st July the dealer did say a December delivery, and they beat it by 1 day, so exactly 5 months from order to delivery. I've not noticed the colour change at night as it's only been sat in my driveway so far and not being used, but next time I'm out in the dark with it, I'll have a look for the colour change.

There definitely seems to be quite a few Formentors in the Greater Manchester area now. Just nipped to Halfords which is 10 mins away and seen two 310 VZ2s a Graphite Grey on the way down and a Desire Red on the way home. Desire Red does look amazing in the flesh

Ordered mine (through lease company) back in June. Original delivery was going to be end of september, then moved till October, then to 18th November ... and then about 2 weeks ago, they said 8th December ... 2 days after last email, they said was in stock, and was delivered yetserday

Just the one pic for now .. Formentor V2 DSG. Went with white, as wanted something different to the other ones I had seen on the road. Like how the dark (grill etc), against the white

Thanks! Yeah, definitely a big change from the 22 year old Golf. So much lighter and great to be back in an auto and no heavy clutch.

I am so glad I opted for the standard white option - It looks stunning!

Congratulations!

came last Friday (was due February 2022), weather was a bit ****.
A bit worried when the first thing the handover guy showed me was how to do a soft reset on the screen :eek:
a couple of initial issues with that but now I'm getting to know my way around it all it's fine.
Love it
