Towball Install

Dear All, has anybody got any suggestions on how to get a tow ball installed on a XC40 D4 AWD?

The issue, using the kicking motion unlocks the boot but it doesn’t open! When you have manually opened the boot, th...

Re: Poll: Which engine/transmission are you looking at, or have purchased?

Gone for a D4, purely on MPG. The car will have to do a 360 mile round trip from Scotland to Yorkshire every two weeks. Electric Hybrids may be OK for city centre commuting but there is not many electric charging points in Dumfries and Galloway! Waiting for hydrogen, but the government seem to be dr...
