My Andesite Silver Rex arrived last night.
I'd never seen the colour before - but it looks nice. More bronze than silver really.
Everything seems to work although the Germanic inscrutability of the handbook is a bit heavy going.
I managed to immobilise myself for 15 mins doing the door/brake/select okey-cokey - despite having driven a demo for half a day.
One thing puzzled me about charging. When I put it on charge last night, the driver's display showed charge finishing at 1.00am. This doesn't seem to be selectable - so I'm guessing it's just the car's estimate of when full charge will be reached.
In that case, if you want to go easy on the battery by only regularly charging to (say) 70% - is there any way of pre-setting that?
I also haven't fathomed out the intelligent cruise control and traffic queue following systems yet. Are there two separate independent functions or do you need to select cruise control before trying to lock on to a vehicle. The manual is voluble on the topic but magnificently incomprehensible to me ;-)
I haven't got my password for the iPhone app yet - but the phone synched and transferred contacts instantly, which never happened so seamlessly in my old Lexus.
So far - so good!
