Honestly I don't know with regards to the finance, my thoughts are you should tell them but either way, with finance, whoever is on the v5 doesn't matter, they still own the car until you pay the finance off as the v5 is not proof of ownership.

I will drop you a message when I remember who it is. It won't come back to me 🤣. I might have to check on Monday when I get back in the office

Accountants 🤣🤣

I enjoyed reading this thread, I have had similar conversations with those sort of people but I try and move on quickly now. For years I have been quite anti EV, not because of the silly things like this but because I believed the more rational miss information around range, charging and the...

We have 3 cars including a Tesla Model 3 owned by my limited company. Our insurance for everything business related including cars is less than you are being quoted. We use Aviva through a broker.

The premier league is independent, I am not sure it is comparable.

Changes to car safety legislation is highly protected and rightly so. There are already numerous car companies that have invested large amounts in the UK, would they be happy for Elon to just rock up and throw money around to get legislation changed that would be a detriment to themselves.

It's just a PR exercise to get people talking about and going and looking at their other range. Let me know when you see one on the road ;)

A lot of these discussion are a mute point. It will never be legal to drive with that bodywork shape in the UK thus they will never sell here. It would have had much more of chance if it say looked like a Ford Ranger.

I am talking about non tesla chargers

I have Tessie on android. I will have a go at setting up a shortcut.

I just posted above, why not use your phone location to unlock, I would much rather this than the automatic boot.

I would like to get s3xy buttons but it is my companies car so not sure of the ramifications on insurance etc.

Yes, tethered chargers. My thought being that it could only do it when you are close to the car. I would rather that function than the automatic boot.

I wish there was a setting you could turn on that unlocked your charge port on completion of charging, it annoys me that with a car that is so automated that every time I walk up to it I have to either get my phone out and open the app or lean inside to press unlock charge port when charging is...

Very jealous of the red, if I had the choice again now I pay the extra to have it. Yeah, not the ideal car for young kids (keeping clean 😂) but she loves the rear screen.

The only others bit I bought where all weather floor mats and a seat protector for a child seat in the back, oh and a screen protector front and rear. I bought the Tesla flat tire kit, probably not really necessary but I wasn't paying for it. What spec are you getting?

Thanks for your reply on this, I think it was something stuck in the air vent. I couldn't see anything but I rigged up a flexible tube to my vacuum and sent it down the vent. I am pretty sure something rattled up the tube and the rattle has gone now. Cancelled the service request and ordered...

I got .3 really early now I have no sign of .6 or .7

I find the AP just cannot come with cars waiting in the central reservation ready to cross over the dual carriageway. I can pretty much predict it is going to slam the brakes on everytime.

I hadn't thought of that. Can I get to it if there is anything.

I went to 14.3 about a week ago, I assume I am a Guinea Pigs 😂 . I don't see any sign of the new update so that supports the theory.

I have had my highland since launch day, the last week a rattle has appear near/under the driver seat. I am struggling to find it as it only happens above say 50mph and I have got any friends to sit in the back and find it 😂 I have raised a service request as I assume this will be covered...

The visualization is definitely very different, it picks up more cars further away, it attempts to see indicators and brake lights of other cars. Seems to get confused by the reflection off them though. It still does strange things though, like yesterday a stop sign followed be round all day 😂

I updated to 2024.14.3 a couple of days ago, its messed with my spotify. Whatever playlist I play, spotify ones, liked songs or custom one, it only plays the first song and then switches back to a podcast I listen to on and off. Its actually extremely annoying as I have to select another song...

Cheers for that, I didn't read the notes 😂

I have a Samsung S23 Ultra, which shows UWB in the connectivity settings (Switched On)

Anyone with the update managed to get the boot to open automatically with the M3H? I stood for about 10 seconds but nothing.

It's also £65k, it looks great don't get me wrong.

I have just had a look at the real world efficiency for the Ioniq 5. It only gets 235 miles from a 74kWh battery, that's is not great (315Wh/mi). https://ev-database.org/uk/car/1663/Hyundai-IONIQ-5-Long-Range-AWD

I am interested to know why you went with an Ionic 5? I couldn't see any advantage over a Tesla or than having indicators stalks, which doesn't bother me in.

Can you send the route to the car so it pre-conditions etc?

You would think there would be a figure so stop you arriving with 1%

Yes, I suppose that would work in this situation.

Does anyone know if there is a way to set the Navigation to arrive with a minimum amount of battery % remaining? The reason I ask, I did a long journey at the weekend. I put in the destination and the Navigation said I should arrive with 7%. That's greats except the nearest supercharger for the...

I didn't think of the whole franchise situation. That also makes things easier.

Its definitely a good point, I do not know of any other manufacturer that works like this. There are a few advantages that EVs offer in this regard, Less complicated drive train making it much easier to remotely diagnose issues. There isnt really the independent garage setup that you have for...

Smog is a term for visible air pollution, mainly caused by the effect of visible particles in the air, whether from burning coal or air polluting activities. It has little to do with Carbon dioxide in the upper atmosphere which is not visible, this is what causes the greenhouse effect. It would...

I moved from a 3.2ltr Ford Ranger (20mpg) that needed a new engine @ 80k miles

My Highland dips the headlight automatically in lit areas.

That's great advice thank you. I will have try and see where that goes longer term

Yes, I will try and get them a good brake ever so often. I would be nice to have an indication of how hard you have to brake to actually be using them. I have come from a ford ranger where I probably only got 20k miles max from the pads anyway.

I use hold, I will take the covers off and have a look. I will try doing some hard braking and see if that helps

Hi All, Owned my M3H since release day (End of Jan). I have noticed this last week that the brakes squeak when stopping, it only happens for say the last bit of braking when coming to a full stop. Is this normal? I assume it is to do with them not being used with the regen braking and then...

I do find on mine that you have to prompt it sometimes to put the full beam (plus adaptive lights) on. You can long press the flash button on the steering wheel to get them to come on. It isnt too much of a hassle but it seems to happen in you start you journey in a town and then go out onto...

The last update appears to have stopped the chime, it has on mine anyway (M3H)

If it is a company car, it is a no brainer due to the BIK and fuel benefit vs a diesel/petrol. I have moved from a Ford Ranger which was costing £0.30 a mile for fuel to a Tesla which is costing £0.03 a mile, over the time I anticipate having the car it will save over £16k just in fuel alone...

The only car I have had that used a knob to go through the menu's was a BMW with the idrive and that was terrible. Always getting moved accidentally by passengers 😂

You probably shouldn't have used a bucket and sponge ;) 😂
