Seems to have stopped now!
Only thing now is my hazard lights came on while charging yesterday !

Good idea , will check that out 👍

We have had our Family Pro performance since January 23. Up to now we’ve had no issues . Recently the car alarm goes off when we return to the car and try and unlock it with the keys. The car has keyless entry , seems if the interior alarm is on this causes this problem? Has anyone else experienced ...

Re: Delivery time

Can I ask any of you guys whether you are getting any kind of goodwill gesture/compensation for the delays?? I think the closest to goodwill is they actually built what we have ordered and honoured the price protection, so many other manufacturers just cancelled orders and the ones that didn't have...

Chargers at camping sites

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-bristol-64901247
Some good points made here, a few strange ones like the national grid not being able to cope with more EV’s ….
But the point about the tax on public charging is something that has to be addressed.

Re: Public charging - what can I expect to pay

As we have no off road parking we are using public charging at the moment, my local council are installing on street charging sometime this year...maybe. Local fast charger at lidl 50p kwh , 22kw charger in my local carpark a minute walk from my house 45p kwh. Not as cheap and as practical as having...

Re: Delivery time

My update from Friday is that there is still no build date. I actually feel sorry for the dealerships with the lack of info from VW. They also have no idea if they'll concentrate on old orders before the facelift. I would like to think they would but who knows. When picking up our car I chatted to ...

Still learning all the settings , although our salesman was brilliant at showing all the different aspects of the car there’s a lot for any new owner to take in. Luckily the 16 m...

Ours is sat in the Dealership, arrived too late to pick up last Saturday so this Saturday is the day!
They did offer us picking it up today but we are both working during the week.
At least its warm in the showroom ......

I guess you don’t want them to rush it either, if it’s not out of your way I’d be asking to at least go in and take a look around as early as you, my motor trade years have made me very cynical im afraid and when a dealer says they need more time it’s not always for the reasons they are giving….

Got me wondering about the seats now. I checked my order and it should be fabric seats. I will find out on Monday. I paid the invoice yesterday and now have registration and VIN number. Good to see that the £2,500 government grant still applied plus last week they asked me to update the trade in ca...
