    Scheduled departure - should it charge?

    Hi On the two occasions I’ve set scheduled departure, the car has failed to charge overnight, but it has heated the car up for the given time. (The limit of charge is set to 100% that night due to doing a long trip) My understanding is that it should also charge as needed as well as heating...

    Who to email about condition of car on delivery?

    Our car was driven down to us and was a little dirty on arrival, which didn’t really bother me. However this dirt was covering up some very deep scratches and a crazy amount of swirls in the paintwork. This was only spotted during a ceramic coating, so I had to opt to downgrade the coatings in...

    What is the correct brake bedding in procedure for an M3P+?

    Hi So I understand that I need to do a series of hardish breaking to bed the breaks in and prevent issues later on. Is there a correct procedure for the M3P+ breaks? Or should I just do around 5 hardish breaking from 40-10mph and then drift around for 10 minutes to cool them? Thanks Scott
