Re: 3 month checkover....
Booked 3 month check and software update free loan car for the day and no charge for the check up. They send an email a few days before the check and request a list of anything that particularly needs checking or fault investigation, very professional approach from Stoneacre Lincoln. Told that any S...

Re: Which driver support mode do you use most? Pilot Assist/Speed limiter/Adaptive Cruise Control
Use them all, agree with Boomer the lane control is too close to the left to feel comfortable and the braking is also a bit tighter than I like. (there's no substitute for having a loose nut behind the steering wheel to keep control. )

Re: Isofix

Re: MPG - Again :-)
I'll give the shock treatment solution a try, otherwise might consider one of the trailing earth connections you sometimes see.
Never kept as car so clean for years thought that might have something to do with it.
Time for a 3 month check over and get any updates

Re: MPG - Again :-)
I'm getting more or less the same mpg as dsun18 an overall mpg of 28.8 after 2600miles anywhere between 25-35 dependant on journey and conditions but using super grade petrol doesn't appear to make any difference, the full ice cold aircon on 100% of the time must be using energy but I agree Auto Pil...

Re: MPG - Again :-)
I cant get more than 34mpg even on a 100mls + run, even with eco and driving like a saint, its hopefully going in for a 3 mth check in a few days i'll see what they say about the mpg. Not impressed after 2500miles expected it to improve, Fortunately the rest of the cars overall performance makes up ...

Re: Polestar

Re: Momentum Pro D3 Auto - modern concrete pics
The concrete colour inner looks great with the black to the rear of the front seats makes them more child friendly. Nice colour combination not available to look at when the first demo models were about.

Re: Off Road anyone tried it yet?
Can understand why you don't do hardcore off road with a new motor, sounds an ideal vehicle for land surveying work ( its what I did on Motorways in the 1970s) but you now use GPS I guess. There are no reviews and little in the way of youtube videos with an XC40 offroad no one wants to turn them int...
