Yeah that pic does look like the floor is in the low position. Thanks for posting! I think I might be giving Cazoo a call when some stock of these arrive! It looks fantastic and a definite step change from my MG5 LR. Probably going to be a good year before then though I suspect?

So still no word on the most important factor (for me anyway!) Do the rear seats fold flat?!

I sold my X1 through Cazoo and they were brilliant. Saw the car, moved it 2m forwards, 2m back then said yes they'd have it if I still wanted to sell. I said yes, he pressed a button on his iPad and the money was in my account there and then. They took it away and I shed a little tear as I had...

Hmmmm. I hope you're right but I'm not convinced you are. There's no release date that I'm aware of yet and no pricing structure released or even model names & spec & colours confirmed afaik? I'd check if I were you!

Hope so for your sake! I read there were some dealers that had stopped taking any more orders as they couldn't guarantee getting any more cars.... Sure you'll be fine though!

Cos I'm a tight a**e, I kept hold of the Boot Buddy liner I bought when I bought my last ICE car, a BMW X1, and thought I'd be able to trim it down to fit the 5 when it arrived. I just tried it and it's pretty much a perfect fit! I've removed the rear seat (also a lot easier than I expected it...

I DO miss the adaptive lighting in the X1 though. Lighting up the corners as you go around them. I didn't think I noticed it until I found myself looking into the darkness of a corner when driving my MG5 when before in the X1 it was lit! Small compromises really.

Yeah I'm the same... I was expecting them to be atrocious after reading pretty much universal condemnation on here, but I'm pleasantly surprised by them... I mean, they're not like the Supernovae that I had on my X1, but they're certainly not as terrible as the 15 year old Avensis I just chopped...

I turned the lane assist off at the suggestion of the dealers. It's more for motorway with definite white lines instead of through town driving. He was dead right as I sneakily turned it back on on my first day to just see if it was overkill. It's not! It needs to be off in town!

You'll love it. It's worth the wait!

They had a bit of difficulty with Santander being sly and changing rates for pre-agreed contracts (naughty...) but pulled the stops out to keep me onside. The guy I dealt with was called Matt and he's been solid from my first enquiry in Sept last year. Quite impressed with them so far, none of...

Welp, there she finally is in all her understated glory! #teamSilver 100% charge, 260 miles indicated. Boom! REALLY happy with her (it..?) so far after about 120 miles of party mode to get used to it. Got to work today and have used 44% battery so onto the works charger and fill up! Made a...

Yeah I read that before. My deal was arranged on 3rd Nov but the finance was left until end of December PRECISELY to avoid any interest rate change... Like I said, I'm not monetarily worse off so I am happy to complete tomorrow, finally, but it sticks it the craw.

That's where it gets a bit hazy. The finance paperwork was done and kept at the dealers. I think I know what's happened but can't confirm it, IYKWIM..... I'm not going to be any worse off as they've practically made all the difference up in the extra for my px and mats & boot liner, but this...

I think there's gonna be some pretty annoyed people! Santander have raised their rate 1% and reneged on the contract I agreed. Gone up by (only) £8 a month. But over 4 years, that's £384 extra. Not impressed. Dealer have done their best to placate and offered more for my px and added mats & a...
