Privet Hawk-Moths Mating

Hi, we found these bugs in the road, we think they are privit hawks but arent 100% We moved them out of the road because they would have been squashed and are now in our garden. We live in the south of england.

Hi Danny,
Your identification of the Privet Hawk-Moth, Sphinx ligustri, is correct.
