Re: Direct Comparison to the Cupra Born

That's the E-Boost one looking at the steering wheel - Lol 1st time seeing that, those buttons are subtle !!! I do the same. My ID3 came from Nottingham, 170 mile trip. My Niece holds our family record. 400 miles to Edinburgh for an Evoke. Is that an Electric Mini moke? (Sorry) Was that a spelling ...

Re: Direct Comparison to the Cupra Born

I've just rang Snows, mainly to see if they have an Aurora blue one, awaiting a callback, but if red is all they have, i'd rather have the white (even though red is quite nice - I prefer non metallic red, like Polo Flash Red or Golf Tornado Red). Snows might've been handy for me as My parents moved...

Re: Direct Comparison to the Cupra Born

Is that a couple of Ducatis in the background? I do think the Born looks a little better in white than the ID3 does. That's the E-Boost one looking at the steering wheel - Get your greasy Mitts off my car! :lol: Go on, you can sit in it, just don't fart on the drivers seat! The one thing that bothe...

Re: Direct Comparison to the Cupra Born

Someone on Facebook yesterday/ this morning posted that a dealer in Southampton has four Borns available including two 230s (all 58kwh). In case Dave wants to investigate. Good Shout! Called Snow's on my way to Twickenham but they don't have a white one. I wanted white on my last three cars and set...

Re: Direct Comparison to the Cupra Born

Motorway book my car at £32,800. 18 months old 8,300 miles. The deal is typically a bit of ducking and diving to get a monthly figure that I wanted. On paper they are offering me close to £32,000 which tbf is £2,500 more than I paid 18 months ago. I'm not in a rush so if you pass on the e boost I w...

Re: Direct Comparison to the Cupra Born

V2 204hp 58kw n white at Twickenham. I wanted the e boost as said but it seems like a good deal and I stand to lose my grant on the ID3 I have on order since Sept and when it does come the used market may have changed significantly and my equity greatly reduced. I forgot you already had an ID3 to t...

Re: Direct Comparison to the Cupra Born

I've only gone and done it... That car on Autotrader at Twickenham which didn't exist, it actually does exist - it was being brought in as a demo and the general sales team weren't aware of it, but the sales manager says they have it and its available as early as this weekend. I said I was awaiting...

Re: Direct Comparison to the Cupra Born

Been following the Born thread with interest. There a number of V2s in the country available now and I have been offered one on PCP for £30 less/month than I'm paying now because of the equity I have in my car. If I wait for the ID3 I have on order I may lose the grant as it will run beyond 12 month...

There's a specific process with regards to the cars state when pulling Fuse19 else you will get airbag warnings that will need a dealer reset. The ignition can't be on basically.

So I make sure I don't touch the brake or silver button?

Thanks Baguette It happened yesterday. Spotify kept loading from Android auto dropping in and out every 2 or 3 minutes. Strange after 18 months it's decided to play up.

After 18 months mine is showing unable to locate connection status and where I would normally see the 4g connection on the display I just have the globe internet symbol. Does this mean I'm now stuck in offline mode? So far I have reloaded the App and rebooted the screen twice. No difference. Will it...

Re: Driving style and ID3 efficiency

Strange thing for me with the ID3 is that I have no desire to drive it aggressively so efficiency is always good. Even on M roads and dual carriageways I tend to drive at 65. Every ICE I have had including my current BMW get driven aggressively generally when I'm on my own.. It's not that the ID3 ca...
