I have recently fitted a nextbase 522gw using the power supply near the rear view mirror. As has previously been outlined on here, I hid any excess wire behind the mirror and it works well. I mounted it to the left of the mirror mount so there is just enough room for me to attach the plug in rear view camera should I want to and it should still work with the sun visor down. Initial impressions are good.

We have done less than 600 miles in the car so far but it has proven interesting. We have never experienced a CVT box before. At first it can be a little alarming - almost like driving a car with a permanently slipping clutch. You ask for some acceleration and the revs soar high while the car catches up. Electric range is as you say pretty much an around town feature and in all fairness it is a fantastic town car but as for how many miles you can get on purely electric , I can't say as I have not yet pressed the EV switch but just let the car do its thing when it wants.. It is less at home when you ask it to maintain motorway speeds - then the consumption plummets. A very nice car though - comfort is superb as is build quality. We will know more in a few weeks.

Interesting. My wife picked up a new NX300H a couple of weeks ago. It's a slow, relaxed and luxurious drive. It is returning about 40mpg which we think is decent for what it is. Nice car.

Hi folks. Just sold our vrs diesel back to the dealership. Now waiting for a nice new mk4 vrs petrol to make its way over here fully equipped with lots of toys. Not the only car in the family but definitely a favourite. Love the dsg box - it compares very well if not better than our other cars. Looking forward to reading up on the info in here 😁
