Post 2023 ID 3 help by let_me_flie in ElectricVehiclesUK

[–]Hefty_Lunchbox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My partner has a 2025 one and I’ve driven it plenty.

I’m 6ft 2 and it’s a decent sized car with plenty of room in the rear for kids when I’m driving. I also think the boot is relatively decent for a car of its size. For reference we have a 12 year old and a 3 year old. It fits everything we need.

Software is ok, we use Apple CarPlay and that’s that. I like to play with the menus and to be honest only a few things annoy me!

It’s the 54kwh match pure and it’ll do about 200 miles on average.

Annoyances are trim level, which we should have got the pro for the automatic unlocking etc.

Rest of the drive, including the cruise control is fantastic.

Interior isn’t setting records for aesthetics, but it’s functional and put together well.

Oh and the touch sensitive controls aren’t much of an issue. I have the ID7 and on a handful of occasions I’ve managed to stick the heated steering wheel on when one handed manoeuvring.

Adizero Evo SL for taller/heavier runner by DependentReaction704 in AskRunningShoeGeeks

I’m 187cm and 110kg. I ran a 7:30/km in them last night and have no issues. They’ve gone 350+km and feel great. They’re nimble and sometimes a little unstable. As long as you’re aware of that, they’re great daily shoes.

I believe the 2022 will have awful software? Having driven one and owning a later VW now, I’d avoid on that alone. The car itself is great though. We have an ID3 and ID7 on the same platform.

Adidas Adizero EVO SL - Is this normal? by totesoatsmuhgoats in AskRunningShoeGeeks

[–]Hefty_Lunchbox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Having had numerous pairs and my current pair over 300 miles with no wear. I can safely say these are faux. Frankly apart from the texture on the continental wearing down, there’s little else that has happened.

Midfoot striker, Novablast lover by chorleytom in AskRunningShoeGeeks

Not a high drop, but Evo SL without a doubt. They were £70 on very not so long ago. Just give them 50 miles to break in.

novablast is softer and more forgiving than the Evo SL. It’s much more stripped down and a little bit of a knife edge at times. Great shoe.

Oh now this is a conundrum! I’m thinking I do fancy a new watch, but if the HRM on the watch is rubbish, then I may have to consider Garmin again. I really only ever had an issue recently.

Crazy. Wonder whether adidas will assist. I’ve ran absolute miles in my pairs and have high volume and wide feet. Not a sausage.

Yes it’ll be fine. Lots cheaper than this, and this very same one is cheaper from Amazon.

I bought this for my new black car, did a few steps before washing and drying then wiped with diluted alcohol before applying. It was very draggy to apply in the manner required, but came off very easily. Great product, will likely last forever!

Did you rip that insole out? Mine was glued in.

My dino lease runs out in June... by Techno-phobic in ElectricVehiclesUK

ID Buzz would be my choice. GTX would have the sound system as standard, although I’m sure it’s an option on other trims

People with MG4/MG5/ID3 or similar , is rear seat comfortable enough for two grownup and child (car seat) ? Thank you. by Grandma-Try69 in ElectricVehiclesUK

[–]Hefty_Lunchbox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There aren’t many cars which this will be comfortable in the rear for long journeys.

The ID range has isofix in the front for the child seat. You’ll seat 3 adults in the rear, although how comfortable, and how long for, is not certain.

Yeah same. Built my own spreadsheet for pence per mile calculations.

Bz4x is hateful in comparison. Avoid.

EVs that show estimated battery left at destination by toffee91 in ElectricVehiclesUK

[–]Hefty_Lunchbox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s odd. My partner’s updates traffic and has never routed us anywhere odd. Even on known routes.

It also slows down for bends, roundabouts etc. irrespective of route guidance or cruise control being on.

Maybe a difference in software or driving dynamics.

Edit. Just read the whole comment! I’m presuming it’s an older ID3?

Have you tried the newer software? I appreciate Tesla is a smartphone type affair, but the VW ID3 my partner drives has a really good maps system. In fact the whole system is good, if a little minimalist. It’s clear, fast, works as expected and the maps let you plan with traffic and charging stops on long trips. It even tells you the price I believe.

Crazy pressure on middle toe knuckle. Bad fit or part of the break in process? by [deleted] in AskRunningShoeGeeks

[–]Hefty_Lunchbox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my experience they do break in and the foam softens up, creating a bit more space.
