It’s nice to see that Autocar has voted the Born first place in its report (30th August 2023), ahead of the Niro, Megane, MG and Abarth.

My V2 went in for the recall on Wednesday. It took only a half day, no work required on the battery, it’s on Continentals so nothing to do there. The software took the rest of the morning. The car is fine, apart from resetting the driver profiles etc. Today this hamper arrived! Nice thought from Cup...

Just booking in my V2 for recall 93Q2 and 93S2 with Vertu / Bristol St - they have been quite responsive, but when I asked for a loaner, they said it would be two days at £40 per day for the CDW insurance. A bit disappointing.
