The Advance is part of the newer model range and is much larger than the earlier one and with bigger everything inside. The models in the older range were SE Connect, Premium, N Line, N Line S, and top-spec Ultimate with boot size 332 litres The newer range are Advance, N Line, N Line S, and...

A lot of the things that affect NCAP are the things we all don't want anyway. I'd take NCAP 4 if it meant the LKA was permanently off. :)

...and as for Amazon sending notifications I cannot find how to stop. Thank you for shopping with us we thought you might like some breakfast cereal/cosmetics..........

His main source of income now seems to be suing people and organisations.

It is and it's corrupting my search for a future replacement. Looking at possibly a years time so looking at current models and they all disappoint on the efficiency front bar the Teslas that I don't want (because of the minimalist interior) or those without the similar range.

My Hyundai Kona is officially 302 miles. In summer with AC on fairly easily achievable, in winter with heating on realistically 225-250. I recently did a 163 mile trip starting at -2 and reaching max temp +2 degrees and that was the low figure of 225 at 3.6 m/kWh, but generally closer to 250...

This would mean you are buying a car for the occasional trip rather than buying it for the everyday use. Who would buy a season ticket to the football/rugby/cinema or whatever just in case they wanted to go one day. Buy to suit for the day to day and fit the exception into that. @securespark...

Just get one or the other, the pick and mix is a compromise for both.

Don't forget you are never able, well very rarely, to maintain speeds. There will inevitably be holdups, roadworks, traffic etc etc. From experience on a longer journey regardless of destination or speed I can more or less count on an average of about 50mph. Check it out on your route planner of...

Plug in hybrids, sometimes thought to be the worst of all worlds. Why lug around a piston engine along with it's gearbox, exhaust etc when you're driving on battery ? Why lug around a heavy battery when you're thrashing those pistons up and down ? Hybrid vehicles are the most likely to catch...

The trouble with having time is that there is so much choice you end up going round in circles comparing this and that. Then just to make matters worse a new bloody model comes out and you think oooh I wonder how much that will be 6 months or 1 year old ? Once you have bought something if you...

Speed is deffo a big factor, I've grown to like 65mph (ish). The difference in arrival time I have found to be completely negligible on a long journey and as for a short journey you might as well do 50. I'm sure many will have seen this but it's always a good watch.

Use Normal mode for WLTP with everything else off such as heating, seats etc. Eco makes it look better, Sport makes it look worse.

How does all this fit in with the recently posted on here video of range testing (and charging) in Norway. In real life as opposed to theoretical lab conditions the BMS surely helps sort all these problems out. P.S. Not disputing @T1 Terry great knowledge at all, just curious as to how how it...
