Re: MPG - Again :-)

I have to say, it seems to me having read lots of comments about mpg, the T4 comes off worst. Mpg is the same or seemingly worse than the T5, yet is 190bhp vs. 250 bhp. I have T5 and consistently get about 33mpg on longish trips in comfort mode, which for a 250bhp car shaped like the xc40 isn't too ...

Re: MPG - Again :-)

I've got a T5 FE and mpg is pretty much what I expected. On a long motorway with a fairly light foot I can get 35mpg. In more mixtured conditions of city and motorway, more like 28mpg. In London on short commutes around 23mpg. Saying that my previous 2016 bmw 520d could achieve 61mpg on paper and I ...

Re: Harman Kardon stereo?

Re: Build quality issues

I've got an irritating rattle coming from the unit the rear view mirror is attached to. You only get it over certain road surfaces, but given one of them is the M25, it's pretty irritating and loud). Need to check it checked out. If I push a finger against the unit it stops immediately, but starts a...

Re: bicycle

Hi-I've for an XC40 FE and can confirm you can easily fit a road bike in with seats down (plus you get the fun of just pressing a button to do so!). Mines a size 58 BMC and no issues. TBH you can fit a road bike in pretty much any hatchback style car- mine also fits sin my wife's Seat Leon.
