We both think that the Xpower should be just a little more obvious than just the wheels and side skirts - Agree?

Yes and does it sound authentic going up and down the gears like an actual gearbox - probably not. The thing is, EVs don't need a gearbox, they just get on with it. So at the end of the day what is the point of sounding like one! It's a mystery to me.

Just a point worth noting. The later XPs don't seem to suffer any unwanted vibes around 70 mph, bought mine new a month ago and vibes are not a problem. So that may be a consideration if thinking about a used/ex demo car.

Silence is golden for me. I'm probably going to be shot down in flames for this but I don't really consider the XP a young folks car because it's too "civilised and serene" I'm pretty good at taking on perspectives and mulling over past times when I craved for a rip roaring exhaust, stick...

Yes don't be fooled by the super low $28000 in China. I was toying with waiting for the MG9 but you can bank on it being around £60,000 for the twin motor by the time it reaches our outlets and at the end of the day they're all getting just too big, check out the Xiaomi SU7, IM LS6 and by the...

Well I've had a vast bunch of so called hot hatches: XR2s x2 RS Turbos x2 and other so called fast Fords and they wouldn't hold a candle to this car. We took the Xpower for a blast today on our local country loop. Then returned Home and took my Wife's Ford Puma Racing (one of the few left) which...

Your damn right there, my dear Wife Carolyn wasn't going to let me leave the showroom without leaving a deposit on that gleaming White beauty that now resides in the garage. But we were relying on the general consensus that it was going to be mileage related and like everyone else would not...

Ok I think it's all about perspectives here and I don't think we are unique across the UK. My Wife and I are both ( well worn ) seniors on state pension, being an ex road racer makes the Xpower the perfect EV for us with serenity and effortless power, we don't many miles, around two to three...

You maybe right but they're struggling to move EVs right now because most cannot afford them and to those folks the free VED is some sort of incentive, don't forget that right now you can tax an Alfa Giulietta with 170 bhp for 30 quid and stay on Dino juice. I'm sorry but the only fair way is on...

Last night I settled down to a little bedtime reading which ended in a sleepless night. I don't know if any are aware of the new VED proposals but I saw on the net there's going to be a standard charge from April 1st 2025 (presumably for us April fools) for ALL fully electric cars of £190 after...

I have just joined this more grown up forum, I had a spell with the Facebook Xpower owners thing but this is more my style before 74 years young. I picked up my new car a week ago and to say I'm smitten would a massive understatement, talk about a Wolf in Sheep's clothing, it has to be the most...
