Any other cheap new xpowers spotted. Im still a bit bemused why the purchase price has gone up from the screen 'sticker' price of around £27... to £30k on the paperwork. when I asked the dealer it was because of the pcp option and not a cash buy. surely a screen price is the screen price...

I didnt see this one come up when i searched autotrader last week, there was a few 2nd hand around the 25k mark

Bit of an update on this. very close to jumping for changing my trophy for a new xpower. (owned for 2 years) Theres a deal on a new one at 28k cash. unfortunately when the dealer comes smiling at me with the pcp deal to change my car, the 'new car price' has jumped to £30k. Would I be better...

Another family member has an SE that does this exactly. It used to be ok on the schedule on either the app or set via the car. by contrast my trophy is ok on either the app or car schedule. Both cars are using the same 'dumb' rolec charger.

Ive been overpaying lump sums once a year to bring the monthly payments down. And the finance company allow you to check on the website to the figure owed at present (this is how im getting to the 50% figure.

Any advice out there ?

Still thinking of swapping out my 72 plate trophy for an xpower (did enquire when the xpower first landed). However I like a good deal and am unsure as to wait until my 4 year pcp is nearly up or look over the next few months to swap. Currently owe around £16k on mine, so I think close to the...

Have 2 of these. Honestly bought to try as a cheap solution, and expecting alot of trouble. however have both versions for carplay and android auto (dont ask!). Both versions are extremely reliable, I do disconnect when not needed. probably takes around 10-15 seconds to boot up and connect to...

I posted this on a google review. Overall experience was good. However would like to point out there is potential to buy a dangerous used car due to the tyre policy. I hadn't inspected the car before pickup and trusted them before as it had been serviced the day before and 1 tyre replaced. When...

I have a new spare set of halfords advanced aero bars and footpack 5 for an mg5...

Yes it is easily possible, as i have tried this on my static. The cable you mention is a much better idea then when I tried with my ordinary 3 pin V2L adaptor. I was a little mindful of any rain, yes you are safe as the caravan would trip on its rcd protection. However it is a major...

2 weeks in and the car is very good. Considering the high mileage, there are no squeaks or rattles. No issues or niggles so far, even put my OBD dongle in to check the battery soh and it's 98.4%. Dealer service report had 90%, however this may have been a guess by the dealer as when I asked for...

Have you any pictures of this black wire please for reference, as its a great tip.

Thanks for the info. 1 new tyre to be fitted, and wheels are being refurbed today. Serviced and ready to pickup Friday. Not really happy about only 1 tyre to be fitted, would prefer 2 on the same axle. However this info was given to me late Friday afternoon.

Looks like whoever reserved it before me was messing them about over finance. So ive reserved it till i can get to see it and after it has been for a service today for the battery report to be done.
