Re: Who’s happy with their Born ?

Interesting comment on the maps / nav as it is run by Google maps. I don’t have a problem with it and it linking to battery expected usage and charge locations doesn’t seem to have caused me any issues. Covered over 4K miles since delivery start of Jan and it’s a quiet, surprisingly spacious and qui...

Re: Best Winter Advice

How old and which software are you on?
Since we are 5 degrees plus range is a consistent 210miles. Speed is indeed a big factor and as you say above 70 it drops off.

Re: Best Winter Advice

It’s an interesting one and as ever I feel biggest influence on range is driving style. Anticipation and keeping it flowing. That said clearly cold weather and short journeys reduce the efficiency. In the recent cold snaps on 5mile journeys with heat to 19degC 2.0miles kWh. Extend that and just gets...

Re: Intelligent Octopus schedule charging not working!!

Interesting for sure. So my setup is a V2, OHME home pro, IO. It was a struggle to get it setup first ie all things talking. So I plug in and charge starts and doesn’t seem to show signs of stopping, how long does the charge run for while IO create the schedule? 1min, 10mins? I pause the charge via ...

Re: Screen failure

Endemic of the automotive industry at present. Getting slots at any marque is weeks / months out even for routine things.

Not excusing it, fundamentally the system is under supplied with technicians.

Re: Company Car - Lead/Delivery Times

Rang them up today to ask for an update after your reply. They said the last update was the 2nd of November when the status changed to “on its way”. So they have built it, but it’s now makings it’s way to the UK and then however long the dealer takes to prep it for delivery. Anyone know the normal ...

Re: Company Car - Lead/Delivery Times

I ordered with Zenith on the 9th of January and I'm still waiting, each month it just goes back a month. V2 Vapour Grey with Beats Audio. Current date given to me is early December. I'm trying not to get my hopes up, but it seems to be a lot longer than most people in this thread. That seems very o...
