Re: “Subject to test drive”
She was of the opinion that as the First Edition arrives with all the bells and whistle that once folk see the XC40 out and about on the roads demand for them will increase. So I guess that it will be easy enough to sell a pre registered XC40 with delivery mileage for the same money I was going to p...

Re: What car are you changing from?
Did you consider the Q3 before going for the XC40?

“Subject to test drive”
Hi all As none of us who are currently waiting, with baited breath, for our XC40’s to arrive have actually driven it yet I just wondered if anyone else stipulated on the order “Subject to test drive”? When we ordered Mrs Jim’s the lovely sales lady who we dealt with suggested that we put this on the...

What car are you changing from?
Hi all For the last 7 years Mrs Jim and I have been running Land Rovers and Range Rovers. After experiencing a couple of blips in Land Rover customer care she was adamant that she wanted to change and so we looked at the VW Tiguan R Line, the Merc GLC, Audi Q3 and the XC40. She liked the look of the...

Re: Lava Orange Carpet Interior
Yes, I do like how all the motoring magazines keep pointing out that the XC40 will not be as up market as the XC60 and XC90!
It looks as if us paupers who have ordered the First Edition will be testing the water for the rest?

Re: New member - transferred from ePace forum!
I have driven the 4 pot F Pace and found it to be a nice car. However once spec’d up you start to go way over the new luxury car tax threshold. I have also read some very bad press regarding the “In Control” and infotainment systems that JLR are using. Many owners have had their cars off the road fo...

Re: Any product recommendations for DIY detailer?
I have never bothered with any of the protection products offered by dealerships. Whilst they may have someone who washes the cars prior to delivery and after services, you certainly can not consider them as knowledgable as a professional car detailer. To begin with, even though it is a brand new ca...

Re: Interior carpet colour
Well just had an e mail from Mrs Jim. She has confirmed that she has changed the carpets from Lava to Charcoal. She reminded me of the time, back in the late 1990’s when we painted our hallway red (after watching the popular TV show “Changing Rooms”) with the odd slash of gold here and there. It was...
