Thanks for all the responses - really tempted to replace it as it's not a huge amount over the balloon PCP payment that was already due. That gets me a brand new car, with some extra features plus removal of the various 'niggles' that are on the one I do have (odd stone chips, that rear light...

The type of plastic they've selected for the outer, transparent section is very brittle, gives good clarity and fairly scratch resistant as the trade off. Lot of these cars are probably on company car or lease schemes and many folks don't wash their cars opting for the car wash services that...

Coming up towards the end of the 2 year PCP bubble on an early trophy. Was planning on just buying the car and have the funds to do so but the GFV is already a loss leader by about £3k. But dealer has some pre-registered stock up for the GFV plus a other £4k - that gets me a car with delivery...

Suspect they will keep cracking over time and the origin point does look like it starts where the plastic is joined to the rear housing for the cluster. Could be condensation freezing a little and stressing the assembly - wouldn't be at all surprised if others were like this but folks haven't...

Got exactly the same issue that I've just spotted today when washing it - both sides, all internal cracks on a car that's 1 year and 10 months old. No doubt they will argue it's impact damage which is utter rubbish. Cracks all propagating from an edge, edge is very difficult to hit with the...

Wouldn't work using the old method as get an error, currently trying to download using the VIN verification portal as on R59. It's taking a long time - currently half way through and its been running for nearly 12 hours, 17.6GB file and only coming down at 300kB/s which is terrible.

I told my dealer the bluetooth on my phone kept dropping and it was annoying constantly having to reconnect it - mumbled something along this lines of a Audi could do this no issues nearly 20 years ago. They updated mine to the newer style of head unit interface (R59) with no questions off the...

Just to clarify weighing of liquids - it's a more precise method than by volume as volume varies depending on both temperature and the liquids reaction to temperature changes. As A/C fluids are designed to change state from liquid to gas to enable the cooling effect it will be pretty severe in...

Figured it would useful to stick fingers to keyboard to note my experiences of a Trophy LR as we've owned it for 12 months. It's on just over 11k miles and has just had a service, we've done a round trip to Scotland and back (1100 miles) and despite the usual charger carnage at peak times on...

Had about 20 miles per 10% battery on my Trophy on a recent run from Oxfordshire up to Elgin way, 3 people and a boot full of luggage. Bit worse on the way back as it was raining so extra drag to overcome on the tyres. Recommend avoiding motorway service chargers from 11-1400 as they get...

My Trophy managed about 10% battery to 20 miles on the motorway at 70moh with 3 people and a full boot. Had a faff with some handshakes on the rapid chargers where I needed to push the start button in the car on the home screen whilst the charge was being initialised to get it to go. Total...

Wonder if a direct question to Mahle about if their pump is supposed to make this noise would actually get us an answer? Also even with heating on it might run the AC pump depending on requirements - AC systems contain air dryers that help with demisting.

Mine does it occasionally, assumed I was having a finger faff with turning the lane keep assist off.

Had to do this on one of the DC rapids I've used, car was showing connected but wouldn't start the charge. Worked fine when I started the charge on the charger and then selected the touchscreen button.

Picked up this delight this morning. Don't think it'll be a glue job as its already cracked on inpact. Anyone had a new screen yet?
