Re: Who’s happy with their Born ?

Love my Born😍
Okay it's really only our town run around, having 2 other ICE cars, but I am seriously starting to think about selling our Macan and going down to 2 cars the Born is that good in my eyes.

Re: Water getting in and onto the back seats!?

Yes mine does exactly the same, poor door seal design. I have gutterless designs on my other cars which do not do this. However it's my only complaint about the car.

That's the way to tell, no balance control on 5 speaker cars as well as chassis number.

Re: Born has 7 speakers now

Hi all, I was just saying on another thread that I wasn’t sure whether ours has rear speakers. We have 23 plate V2, delivered in January. Sat in the back I was certain I could hear sound from the lower door grill, but not the upper by the handles Does your chassis number have an R as the 10th digit?

Re: Sound system

Hi all, We have V2, 23 plate. I believe it’s 7 speakers. Non Beats. Like others I’m no audiophile but listening to tunes in a car is one of the main aspects of driving for me and my family. The sound lacks any warmth in my opinion, and you cannot remedy this by simply upping the bass, that introduc...

Re: Sound system

Had a test drive of a standard sound system Born and was pleasently suprised with how loud it was - the lady who was doing my order suggested that honestly, there was hardly any difference between the Beats upgrade and the standard. MY 24 cars have rear speakers which makes a big difference. Qualit...

Re: Quick hello from UK - Born V2 - first month

I have a Born V2. I haven’t noticed an issue with the dashboard being reflected in the windscreen. I suspect it’s one of those things where once you notice it, you get drawn to looking at it. Luckily I am on holiday in Spain- if I was to check it out in my own car I might end up being afflicted as ...

Re: Ceramic Coating?

I paid a professional detailer who I know £400 to prep my new Boxster GTS 4.0 with a 5 year GTech product. I wished I had saved my money and that was mates rates! CC IMHO is a total waste of time, yes it helps any dirt wash off but that's it. It doesn't protect from scratches or swirls or stone chip...

Re: Test Drive Smart #1 and MG4

I'll be changing my Born hopefully late Spring and have two more test drives planned which will be the new Mini EV Cooper S in March and if Ford get their finger out a Puma EV or Explorer EV. Make sure to wait until the Born gets a refresh which will bring the ICAS3 with software version 4. Take a ...
