    Headlight Beam Question

    I picked up my brand new X Power on Saturday. I noticed this evening that my headlight beam on the right hand side looked brighter reflecting on the rear of the cars in front than the left hand beam. I took the attached photo from about 70ft / 20m to demonstrate what I'm trying to describe...

    X Power Rival - Hot Cupra Born VZ

    https://www.autocar.co.uk/car-news/new-cars/new-cupra-born-vz-hot-hatch-boosts-power-322bhp I've just this Autocar article on the new 'hot' Cupra Born, a car that is considered a close rival to the MG4. It has a rather cute "Golf R baiting 322bhp" and a 0-60 time of 5.7 seconds. Prices are...

    What car did you have before the X Power. 🙂

    Currently got a Jaguar XFR while I wait for my X Power. 5.0 V8, Supercharged, 510bhp. But I fancied something a bit quicker.

    Evo Magazine Review

    Thanks. So, nothing in the review that we didn't already know. And it asks if you need to spend the £7k premium over leaser models to get a car with a lower range. Same could be said of any car though. I bought a V8 supercharged Jag when I knew the diesel would go further on a tank. I don't...

    Evo Magazine Review

    According to a friend of mine, Evo Magazine have just done a road test review of the X Power in the most recent issue. I haven't seen it yet but will have to buy a copy while I wait for the car to arrive.

    Any performance stats beyond the headline 0-60?

    I test drove the X Power only. I liked it. And I've placed an order for one in Camden Grey. To be honest, the decision was already made which model I was going to get. But I had a hell of a time trying to decide what colour to go for.

    Any performance stats beyond the headline 0-60?

    I suppose it's salary related. Maybe you earn more than me and get better tax savings through the scheme. If your scheme is like for like, with 18000 miles, insurance, maintenance and tyres included, then it seems good value indeed.

    Any performance stats beyond the headline 0-60?

    No, that's something I'm going to have to pay for. And I'm switching to Octopus energy for their 7.5p night charging tarrif I think

    Any performance stats beyond the headline 0-60?

    Thanks for the replies. So, my Jag's 1/4 mile time is said to be between 12.3-12.9 seconds but it is very much traction-dependent (in the wet it would be significantly slower). It's party piece is it's "staggering overtaking ability", with 50-70mph taking just 1.9 seconds. But you guys are...

    Any performance stats beyond the headline 0-60?

    I'm going to test drive an MG4 Extended Range and an X Power tomorrow. I'll admit that it's the headline grabbing power figure and 0-60 time that initially caught my attention and got me considering selling my XFR and moving to an MG. The more I read up on the MG4, the more the cheap running...
