me neither, I'm looking out the windscreen most of the time.

I'm currently getting a long term average (over the last 6000kms), 14.8kWh/100km which is 6.76km/kWh or 4.2mls/kWh on my Xpower.

Yep and no reason to think it won't work in the same way if I use it some more. Sorry to disappoint you with no negativity or moaning.

Heating is exactly the same for me although I rarely use that here. Works just fine.

My AC is always set to 'auto' and target temp of 22°C, works very well, blower starts strongly for a while during hot summer days until it gets down to the target temp then very quiet while it maintains that temp.

Yep, just like the German guy thinking he can sue MG regarding open source software that MG isn't 'releasing'. Some people always angling to become a 'peoples' hero when they are in fact completely deluded themselves for various other reasons.

Not as simple as that at all. It all depends on how you drive the car, same with ICE vehicles and everyone will get a different result as they live in different places, differen climates, different topographies, different traffic volumes, more/less highways, different textures of road surfaces...

Well, about 30% of the world's population drive on the left side of the road (RHD) with a whopping 70% driving on the right side of the road (LHD). That's also around 75 countries being RHD and (again) a whopping 175 countries being LHD. So yes, really :cool:

No problem getting in and out of the car. The seat bolsters provide some good support in the curves. Without them, people would be moaning that there aren't any seat bolsters and that they're sliding around.

Nothing can be 'fit for purpose' if some are heavy handed enough to treat their vehicles like a piece of rubbish. The tailgate IS fit for puropse during reasonable use which includes taking a light touch to such areas if the car. Still, people can do what they like.

I see so many people slamming their tailgates shut on all cars that have them. When I close the tailgate, I lower it gently down and then let it drop on its own weight when it's about a hand palm's height from closing. Slamming tailgates can cause cracks in lights and light bars after some time...

It's under the front hood as in most cars. A few have them in the back like some BMWs. Takes a few seconds to go take a look. You'll need to know this information if you get a problem such as you have right now.

My car is RHD because driving is on the left here. However, I've also lived in Belgium, Netherlands, Norway, Germany and Austria where I had LHD cars which are what most countries in the world use and most of the drivers in the world are right handed.

Well, being right handed (as are the vast majority of people), a manual car is more natural in LHD format and so is an auto as the drive controls are on the right and so are many of the other controls. It also explains whu most of the world drives on the right with LHD vehicles.

Surely if you bought your car in the UK, it's right hand drive? LHD would be much more suitable in Spain and also far easier to sell on in the future. I've found LHD much more natural to drive than RHD.
