I am sure some reviewers who have driven BMWs for a long time will conclude the indicators on all cars don’t work.

Yep under a cover

Quick update I had rusty disks after leaving the car for over a month. Took quite a bit of driving to stop the noise on one wheel.

As per the post at the top of the forum I am off to Everything Electric on Thursday 17th. I won’t be taking my Cyberster or MG5 but it would be great to meet other owners. If you are going please DM me @leomindel

In my experience no built in maps are any good. They are an example of how behind the car industry is in innovation, the same way some traditional manufacturers were still installing CD players. CarPlay and android auto is so much better. The only exception is Tesla but they only show...

Good report. The only main difference I do is plug the ABRP destination into Waze and do the actual navigation in Waze. The inbuilt maps are like using a Nokia phone to connect to the internet.

I also mainly use the Electroverse card however I also have the charge map RFID card a Tesla account and signed up for a few apps in France and Italy. Electroverse turned out cheaper than the Italian ones. On road trips best to have multiple options even if you only end up using the...

This very well sums up why we went for the GT and why we are touring with it. In comfort mode I do not think it will be any difference in terms of reaching the next charger destination in Europe. Enjoy your choice.
