Re: What accessories have you found for your XC40?

I bought these flags from Amazon. Two flags for £9.99. A bit OTT but they look good !! https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B07VYMSK9G?psc=1&ref=ppx_pop_mob_b_asin_title I've just used the one flag on the drivers side, and have a spare. From watching the reviews always liked the look of the little ...

What accessories have you found for your XC40?

After a long long 5 month wait I am picking up my car on the 30th (next week) - after reading through this forum I have purchased the matte screen protector (thanks to the people that suggested it) but what else do you recommend for the car? I had originally ordered mud flaps but after seeing them o...

Re: Fuel reserve

Thanks for the warning - I often use the 'miles left' as a challenge in my current car and have had to drive past 0 a few times.

Re: Hi all, new car on order.

I am having the smartphone upgrade completed by the dealership new week (before I pick my car up) and they have assured me you get the same 2 ports as per the factory fitting (which I would have preferred!).

Cheers again. You're not alone about the tax system, just taxed me old ca...

Re: Ordered an XC40 on Sunday.

Yes, Grey1969 you will have to pay your £140 for your second year tax a full month before you have to. That's almost a full £12 too soon! :lol: it's a full £12, sounds so much less than a month of road tax. Even if you are over the 40k mark the road tax is still a small amount compared to the car.

Re: Hi all, new car on order.

Just wanted to ask if the dealer upgrade from Intellisafe to Pro is completely identical, as the SmartPhone upgrade I read differs slightly in the factory has dual usb ports but the dealer fit is 1 usb port. My Apple play upgrade is being done at the dealer and they said it is exactly the same. Wil...

Re: Hi all, new car on order.

Once you add the T5 there is no chance of getting it lower than 40k with the packs. I managed to get a good discount but not quite 10% :-(

Does the upgrade give you the 360 cameras as well as ACC?

If you are going to break the 40k road tax barrier you might as well do it in style ;-)
