I too would like this option, as auto quite often turns the lights off at times it really shouldn't (especially in low-sun scenarios where visibility is very poor but overall light levels are still high).

Yeah the CC2 is a much better tyre in cold temperatures than the A/S4 regardless of how much snow you get. The tyre rack numbers quoted are for warm conditions. The CC2 is a winter rated tyre - the A/S4 is not.

I got there eventually - in case this helps anyone else: The issue was I thought I'd snap the cover if I pulled harder. To solve this, i passed packing straps arounds behind the cover (two spokes per strap) but in front of the actual spokes which meant the strap pulled in to be much closer to...

Slightly odd issue here - I went to take my aero covers off and they're firmly on there! I can get each spoke to come off, but the hub isn't budging. In youtube vids it looks like the hub isn't even attached for their removals. Anyone know what might be up? Don't want to go too ham-fisted on it...

I've had better quotes from arnold clark than from wbac by a large margin - got the money they quoted too, though with a sample size of 2 cars it's not that meaningful! Never tried anything as high value as these cars though so not sure how good they'd be

oof tough scrapes. Mine had it's first bump today after only a couple of weeks of ownership. Luckily, slow enough that the only mark is a scuff across the front numberplate. Then again, given it was parked in my garage I'm not too impressed it got scraped at all, "someone" other than me decided...

Just had mine delivered, woohoo. had an awkward moment as they dropped it in the middle of the road and handed me the keycard to back it onto my drive - took me an uncomfortably long time to work out how to put it in gear :D didn't realise the stick just pushed further and I'm normally quite...

When I choose to spend my money on a very expensive purchase because it's the environmentally right thing to do, and give the government many, many thousands for the privilege I don't think viewing it as them "giving me money" - they end up with much more money if I buy a Telsa than if I don't...

Fair alternative viewpoint. For me, the reason I don't think this way is that if I'm fast-charging it is because I am on a journey - overnight or whenever is when I aim to return the car to pre-journey state of charge. However, others may only feel happy setting off on any given leg of a journey...

This is odd, given it's not comparing how quickly they charge in any meaningful way. If you're driving a distance you need an amount of range, not a percentage of battery. So charge them to the same remaining range and you're comparing meaningful charging. As others observed, the percentage is...

I've got to wait all the way till Friday. I'm currently bouncing between excited, looking at old reviews etc of the car, and worried, reading new-car-horror-stories. Eeek. My brother in law also wants one, I've not told him yet as I want to get it first. Waiting is killing me though!

My insurance is based on the licence plate - had to phone up to do it as websites don't accept licences that you can't look up against DVLA but it seems fairly straight forward - direct line & aviva both were able to do that no bother

I went for a MyEnergi Zappi 207UW (I think that's "version 2 7kW Untethered White"... so basically the same as all the other letter soup v2 Zappis) and it's quoted at 799 parts and labour inc VAT so after the Scottish EST thing it should be 500. I only went for so expensive a charger cause I'm...

I'm a bit unclear what Tesla think their direction is - don't get me wrong, I've ordered an LRAWD and take delivery in 8 days, I like the cars, but they've got some weird mixes of decisions. The model 3 aims to be sporty. All Teslas accelerate fast. So it's a drivers car - except they don't...

The Phoenix Works - recommended by a neighbour. Honestly I've no real idea how they are in that all I've done so far is have a short phonecall and then sent some pictures of my circuit boxes & where I want the install to get a quote. I guess that means so far so good, as it's been fairly easy?

Anyone know when we're likely to find out our VIN or reg numbers? The charging point installers want to know for the OLEV grant thingie and I've no idea when I'll be able to tell them :D luckily the energy saving trust doesn't seem to need that yet, so hopefully I can get one step closer to...

Yep same as I was offered - not ideal options! They've told me they'll deliver to my home address too and say it should be on the 19th so fingers crossed. Given you ordered before me I'd hope you get yours then too - must be a bunch coming at once surely! I didn't realise Newbridge wasn't...

Hi all, I too am now waiting - ordered LR AWD at the weekend, delivery scheduled for the 19th. Most expensive weekend I've ever had! :D now to get a charger sorted...
