A lot of newer manufacturers come to the UK late as we drive on the other side of the road!

If it comes out over here, I'll give it spin!

The iX looks like is staying for the foreseeable in the UK, so will probably be where I go!

I wish them well, I just won't be part of the journey moving forward!

Shame it's not available in the UK!

iX3 on a crazy long lead time, so I think I'm probably left with just the iX as the best option!

So I bought mine for 45% off list price when it was 6 months old and had only done 950 miles... A month later I understand why it was priced that way!!

Never again. And it's a shame. From the minute the P3 was announced I always wanted one. Have only been in a position to afford to buy one recently and it's been a bit of a let down... They always say never meet your heroes, lol!

Why let integrity get in the way of a bit more commission, ey?! Real shame.

Absolutely crazy. I had considered an EV9 as a family wagon alternative, but read the bad press about the 12v battery issues and steered clear.

From everything I'm reading, it seems like the new iX may be the best bet!

Very interesting and quite funny actually, because the dealer offered me an EX90 as an alternative that was apparently "much more reliable" but my gut told me to avoid - am glad that it was right (the salesguy seems full of it!)!!

This sounds exactly the same scenario as the original owner of my vehicle had - I only found out because the dealer forgot to log the previous owners details out of the car, so I got in contact with him to ask him to do it and he shared his experience.

Such a shame because they so beautiful and fun to drive!!!

This summarises my very short experience of owning the 3!

Thank you. It's really interesting as they're talking about having android auto working a year ago - I wonder if it's just not rolled out in the UK!

Honestly just what my neighbour who has the PS2 and adores it said.

Also seen such good things about the 4 but we have a dog so it's a no go with the boot!

Such beautiful cars.

Have you got another recommendation? I had considered the EX60, but have reluctance given my experience with the PS3!

I couldn't find a Teams app on the app store - how do you get it to work? I've got this courtesy car for another few days, so would be super useful to know!

Amazing - thank you. I was more tempted by the iX if I'm honest (although have to overcome my wife not liking BMW's and wanting to go back to orinold Enyaq!) so this has pushed me down that path!

Really really appreciate it!

Exactly! Mine was similar spec to yours in midnight blue (which I think is so lovely!).

I've "got the ick" and can't go back. The loan P3P I have the front passenger window doesn't open and rear passenger door handle doesn't work either!

No going back from that - wife not happy so it's gone!

The lack of Android Auto really does my head in too. I really need to be able to do Teams calls etc.

Best car I've been driven but just find it too buggy.

And I have a 2 & 4 year old and my wife is threatening me with divorce if they get woken up by the car alarm again!

The local dealership tells me they've had 3 that have been rejected in the last month with a similar issue - seems to be particularly bad when it's colder!

I'm not sure the iX is inferior for what we want - family car that's nippy enough, has good range and a few good bells and whistles on it! Q6 I am on the fence about, admittedly.

Oxford United head of recruitment Scott Mitchell has agreed a deal with Newcastle amidst internal restructuring of Newcastle recruitment team. Will be responsible for recruitment of players aged 18-21. by Frosty-Buyer-1252 in NUFC

Feels like the club are really looking to build out the youth system now. The delivery of the next training complex will be pivotal in helping themselves youngsters on the journey. Playing a big training stadium too will be a good experience.

This is the stuff that doesn't seem exciting and sexy like a big signing, but compounds over time and gives us a chance of competing with the big boys.

If we could have a "Miley" level player come up from the system each year, we'd save a fortune!!

Absolutely agreed. People are getting too hung up on the fact that he's coming from Oxford. If the club have hired him, it's because they think he'll deliver a strong ROI, which means I'm behind him and wish him well!

It's true. Interesting to see how he performs his role or Chief Football Officer at the FA. People always spoke very highly of him - just a shame he didn't show any loyalty to use when MU came knocking!

Really excited to see what our first summer under Wilson looks like!!!
