I've just passed a years ownership but I'm only on 6,300 miles (and even this is a problem as my lease is for 6,000 per annum!)

Are you sure they're from the previous owner? Not trying to hide some trips from the missus are you? :lol:

Any Scottish users who know if there is any benefit from the Charge Now card? I have a cYC card which seems to cover most of the chargers around Glasgow, and an Ecotricity card for when I'm out and about. Has anyone also got a ChargeNow card?

Can you try using another socket, ideally not from the same circuit board? (Another house, charge point with a 3 pin socket?) This will help you narrow down whether it is a problem with that hockey, your home power supply or the cable/car.

Why do you say the remote app is useless? Yes it could have more features and statistics, but I love the preconditioning feature and have benefitted from the remote locking function on several occasions, saving me having to fet out of my lovely,'warm bed.

Reminds me of a Volkswagen Golf advert from the eighties.

Welcome to the club. Registration will depend where you live and what charge points you are likely to use. I have registered with Ecotricity (national network of rapid and other chargers, frequently at motorway services) and CYC (chargeyourcar) who operate the majority of charge points around...

I think charlesippo is taking the p$$$

Seems a bit expensive to me. Your lease company will accept a certain level of wear and tear from general usage, and can provide guidance on what is and is not acceptable (size of/number of scratches etc.) $1350 seems a lot of money to cover this risk, but as with any insurance you need to...

As far as I know there is no adapter. I believe there is a lot more to it than just having the correct connector. All sorts of electric gubbins would need amending (think a transformer x10).

Unnecessary

You definitely learn a new thing every day with this car (at least I do). Thanks for the info.

Now annoying, glad you managed to get the spare key without too much trouble. It does seems a little over enthusiastic to lock the doors with the keys inside. A literal interpretation of 'lock if no doors are open' rather than 'no doors have been opened'

Congratulations. I too want to know spec, colour, options etc. when are you expecting delivery?

Do I detect a hint of sarcasm about the moderators hours here? You know you could always volunteer to cover the weekends......
