Re: New to the xc40 forums

Oh great thanks, so this is only in the R-Design and not the Inscription? When I ordered my car it was only available in the R-Design however I have since seen that it is available in both R-Design and Inscription models... If I was in your boat I would probably go for the Inscription because the R...

That's quick for a Non-FE model!
I'm kind of wishing I went for an Inscription over the R-Design after finding out about the delays

Re: If you still have any doubts - read the latest comparison review

Interesting in the reviews that they keep mentioning the infotainment being a weak point. Is that what folks are finding? I’d heard in one review that they complain about stable Bluetooth connection. I've wondered that too, it seems to have mixed reviews... Half of the journalists and reviewers lov...

Re: Delivery Date

That's interesting. I'd happily swap to an Inscription Pro. Which parts of an R Design are causing the bottleneck? I too saw that message on the configurator just now. I'd happily swap mine for an Inscription Pro as well, I just wouldn't know what colour to go for as they're all so boring for the I...

Re: Headlights

I had the same brochure given to me before the uk launch and I also noticed AST was included but it was not fitted on the delivered car and since removed is from the marketing material. I suspect a typo in the original details. Also the now delivered cars do not have the bonnet mounted flags. They ...

Re: 1.5

I guess time will tell. Looking at the 'What Car' review of the Countryman it does suggest that the 1.5 engine struggled and the XC40 is 100 kg heavier at it's minimum kerb weight! It does however produce a bit more power so let's see what happens when there's one available to test drive..... I alw...

Re: Delivery Date

If you select R-Design in the configurator, it now says “N.B. Limited availability. Please contact your retailer for updates.” That's interesting. I'd happily swap to an Inscription Pro. Which parts of an R Design are causing the bottleneck? I too saw that message on the configurator just now. I'd ...

Re: Which xc40 to get.

Dave Get and or put something in writing which states it will have a black roof. I think if you try to configure the R-Design you get the black roof. try it a let us know. Here's Parkers Description:- Additional features for sporty-looking R-Design models (on top of Momentum equipment) includes: ◾B...

Re: Headlights

I have a copy of the MY18 & MY19 Price and Specifications booklet in front of me here which is what my dealer gave me when I ordered.

It says here it's for Edition 2 and the Pro models include Active Bending Headlights with AST.
