Re: Selling ID.3 on day of delivery.

I've considered selling up, being offered more than you buy a car for is tempting to take however when looking into placing a order for a new ID3 the incentives are no longer there and the cost per month is a hell of a lot more than my current deal so I'll stick with it. I could buy an older car but...

Re: Front fog lights

I used my front fog lights today as it's been pretty foggy here. Matrix headlights fitted. It just appeared to be the cornering lights or similar lighting up which made it easier to see the edge of the road.

I mean you have two options either man up and ask them to pay or pay it yourself

Re: Creaking from Panoramic Roof

i have noticed a very very slight creak at low speed from the pano roof when reversing on my driveway with the radio off, passengers havent noticed it but i will keep an eye on it and get it booked in for a inspection if it gets worse over time

Re: Matrix LED headlights

The matrix lights are really good, cant fault them, had the odd event where they take a second or two to block out the oncoming car but that was a rare event, couldnt be without them now

Re: Are you honouring your trade in deal?

nope, i agreed a trade in and only told the dealer when i went to pick the car up (meant to call before but forgot) it took about 2 mins to change some paperwork and i sent the cash over, they really dont care if you trade in or not

Re: Speakers and Audio

I was worried music would sound bad but to be honest if i didn't already know there were no rear speakers i wouldn't have guessed, saying that I've not sat in the back though... from a driver point of view ive noticed no difference from when I've driven other new cars with standard speakers.

Lucky we have many SuperChargers (and can use any other CCS charger) also the satnav will show if one station is off line and even how many pumps are in use / free 8-)
Tesla owners do have many superchargers but unable to take a joke it seems :lol:
