? Was there some issue at 37,000 miles that had a Main Dealer replace the oil? It was a dealership that it was done at was it not, not SKODA. Just a franchised establishment. skoda-allin-warranty-terms-and-conditions (1).pdf

ATS Euromaster, & i get a further discount on the £125 each fitted. 60 Club. ATS & Halfords have a very good price / discount on Goodyear Vector 4 Season Gen 3,s.

ATS Euromaster, Owned by Michelin. £125 each fitted. x 4 £500, & i get 15% Discount so £425.

Bl00dy hell. Crazy Tariff. Thank Goodness for TESLA Superchargers @ Tesla Aberdeen, & Dundee, Perth, Aviemore, Inverness. & others in Scotland.

Fantastic.

@lol-lol The one i have can be set to 13 or 16 amp. I will take the car to Braemar tomorrow and then charge at InstaVolt after 8.pm to see what the charging speed is like.

@ZJZ I am having Cross Climate 3,s fitted on Saturday. The size is 205/60 R 16 V 96. I thought worth giving a try as selling at less the Cross Climate 2 & + Cold nights arriving here already.. The tyres the car i got today are a mixed set & the grip was crap even in the dry.

Once you get it all cleaned up there will be more chance of knowing. I googled Hyundai i40 to see what was the main issues with them. Look like there can be many. Sorry i am no help.

10 amp. After midnight. Michelin CrossClimate 3,s going on Saturday. Surprised that they are cheaper at present than CrossClimate 2,s or +. 205/60 R16 V 96

Plugged into 3 pin after 26 miles and showing this. 88% and 185 miles available.

It's fine. From 100% and back country roads climbing and coming back down in D setting it was showing 4.7 miles on leader regen. Sitting checking, In Sport it shows 151 miles range and in ECO 189. Showing this once back home.

Dundee City and elsewhere have Electric City Busses. But this is just Groundhog day it seems.

Just check out the city to city electric bus routes in Scotland now. Busy busy busses stopping into towns, it is a brave new world. Some places moved with the times.

There are plenty videos covering Dundee City Council and the Electric Vehicle fleet which now has 8 electric bin lorries. Plenty Renewables electricity available there though. I will put up again for those that maybe have not seen.

Equipment required to plug in and check settings. ? Was it not just a Demonstrator registered in someone at the Dealerships name until having done 3,000 miles / a minimum 3 months old? It could have been a car bought by Motability then returned early.

2nd hand surprisingly cheap for lots of them. When not very cheap there are still people buying. There are many many thousands used EV,s and PHEV,s offered for sale. Just as there are millions of cars / vehicles within the Motor trade / auctions, big and small dealerships. Plenty cars to be going on with if another new car is never built in the UK & non imported.

With Winter or all season tyres when i had fitted to Skoda Fabia vRS,s or narrower tyres i adjusted the steering assist. Set to less assist compared to the Factory setting.

Have you had the car since new and know it is on Factory Settings or did you buy as a used car? Motability cars or just cars that a driver might require more brake boost can have that setting higher. Sometimes cars are handed back and left with the setting not back to Factory Settings.

Postie came. Ready.

'Currently'. Even when it is at a higher price it will be better / cheaper than those paying 75-89 pence a kWh for electric. Not as good as those maybe paying 6.7 - 44 pence a kWh & getting 5 miles a kWh. Ford e-Puma. They will be 'Much cheapness' in another year and even more so in 2.

I ran my Land Rovers on LPG for years. 50 pence a litre when petrol was £1 a litre. ASDA Credit card gave 2 pence a litre off. But the Fuel at Budgets might go up 1 or 2 pence a litre and i bought twice as many litres. some more than twice. But then running a V8 on LPG and no Petrol with an engine built to run only on LPG gave the equivalent of 35 mpg from a 4.6 V8. Even towing a Car on a Transporter, Boat etc. & no Techograph needed Towing for gain or Reward. LPG was up at 75 pence a litre when i last bought any. Still much cheapness from a Farm / Grain Driers etc, no Markers like Diesel. But buying that is illegal.

Forget SERVICE MANAGERS, they train the Service Staff. Talk to the DEALER PRINCIPAL. The Organ Grinder not the monkeys. Receptionists are Gate Keepers, doing a job. Tell the Dealer Principal the good job the did for Him / Her, but not for you. ??? Are you talking with Skoda Customer Services & part of the Executive team, or are you not past this crowd?

Skoda UK / Skoda Assist can arrange the Hire Car. As should the Dealership. They get to be an Approved Franchised dealership because of this ability. Skoda UK own Pre Reg Demonstrators sitting actually being used by Staff to get them to 3,000 miles / 3 months old for the tax breaks. They are taking the pith totally.
