Me neither. 2700miles covered with trips down to Weston-super-Mare and up to Norfolk. Thought I might have seen Wonky, being as he had left a review of charging station at morrisons Cromer. Incidentally this wasn't working when I tried.
Hooked up to a 22kv in Holt whilst in a restaurant, as we walked away, two young lads went by on there scooters. First lad, what car is that, 2nd lad replied, looks like a ferrari.
First lad, oh don't like them.?
Was having a little chuckle as we carried on walking.
Shame we didn’t cross paths, but also suprised you didn’t see any others while in Norfolk. I must be like a Mach-E magnet ā€˜cos I’m tripping over them left right and centre.

I’m based in Norwich, but spend a lot of time around the coast at Cromer and inland on the Norfolk Broads. Not unusual here to see one almost every time I’m out these days (in fact saw two today while out for the Bank Holiday)

And yes - that GeniePoint in Morrisons Car Park in Cromer is about as reliable as an unrelaibale thing on an unreliable day when it’s not being ICE’d by BMW’s and Motorhomes LOL

I must be overlooking. Thought I would have seen at least one by now.
The ICE situation regarding parking in EV charging bays will continue until they clamp down on them.
Whilst in Holt, and on my return to my car, there was a Audi Q5 hogging one of the bays.

Not happened to me when I last had an EV, but now they are slowly becoming mainstream this would pee me off. Someone ought to design and produce a suitable sticker for their windscreen, that all ev owners should have on board.

Anyone like to suggest some wording? Any I would suggest would be banned by the forum...Along with me I guess!

My dealer did the finance a bit different to several others on here. I can only assume they liaised with Ford Credit to let them know when I'd be picking up the car because a couple of days before I got an email from Ford Credit to say the contract was ready to e-sign. I did all this and it was approved by Ford Credit the next day. I then paid the outstanding balance to my dealer the day after that when I picked up my car. First monthly payment has come out as expected a month later.
Thanks Stephen, that’s reassuring to know that Ford Credit were able to turn around the approvals quickly after signing the contract. I’m guessing mine will follow a similar process with the dealer (hopefully), but will double check that the dealer is speaking with FC - don’t want any delays when I’m this close!!!

Has anybody had any issues with the heating in the car? switched it on for the first time yesterday and it didn't appear to be doing anything. The cooling works fine but even with the temp set to highest it was just blowing cool air

Same here, tried it last week when it was colder and didnt seem to warm up. I am out early tomorrow so will try again. The seats and wheel do heat up very well though.

Yeah Big Red is still in for screen diagnostics and the dealership don’t seem to be in any hurry to return her any time soon. Thankfully Ford have very kindly loaned me Big Blue (AWD ER) for as long as it takes.
Since you’ve had extended miles in both a red and a blue MME, do you find the Grabber Blue gets more attention than the red? I have a red and was surprised how eye-catching GB is the first time I saw one.
