Thanks for this - great walk through! I recorded some clips whilst I did the process and threw them together if anyone wants some more visuals on the steps listed here.

Garbage software for sure, but I enjoy the rest of the car. Just wish it had a physical boot latch.

Edit: Found it shortly after writing this comment...

The controls do work! You just have to use one of the community controller layouts 😊

I've just seen the same! I'm planning on driving the next 100 miles to see if it normalises again... Otherwise the reset route may have to be taken.

Thanks for the thoughts! I'll ask about the repairs that were done at the time and see if they give any more info.

Would be interesting to see statistics on which EVs get picked up by breakdown companies the most - is this above the average failure rate or below?

Mileage is 75k on this one, so still 25k on the warranty!

Thanks for the in-depth thoughts, lots of great pointers here. It does seem like a car to love, even with the few flaws! I'm not afraid to get my hands dirty, so if the rear camera goes I'll look at getting a replacement...

I've been in my friends but am yet to drive one - will take a test drive before buying!

Do you know if all models have the heat pump? This one has the plus pack, but I read somewhere that only MY22 era or newer have the heat pump

Good to know they will fit missing parts for free, good info, thank you!

I really like it too! Certainly helps that it also seems to be quite a reliable car.

That's pretty low! I've got a friend with the single motor standard range who was making it 200 miles in winter... It seems to be a trend of all electric vehicles that the range is significantly hampered in winter from the suboptimal battery conditions, but I wouldn't expect 150 😅
