Yes, Joolstdi, it looks like we are in the same boat! I was beginning to think that it would slip back further into summer, although it seems Hyundai have had a fresh batch of parts so they can get the vehicles with Tech Packs out of the door, as it looks like we both chose that.
I've worked in ports in the UK and abroad where new cars are shipped from, and they only have some light scratch protection on the panels and wheels when transported, so I'm curious to know why it enters a workshop again after shipping yet before arrival at the dealers. Would it just be for customs clearance/registration?
I'll be working in the eastern part of the north sea for the next few weeks, so I'll give the Main Highway a wave if I see it passing on the horizon on its way to Tilbury. I should be home in time to collect it from the dealer too.
Not too long to wait now then, enjoy your new car, Joolstdi, and roll on June!
On order: Hyundai Tucson Hybrid Ultimate + Tech Pack in Phantom Black.
Ordered: early Jan 2022
Expected: Early June.
