Cyberster
Collected our new Cyberster GT from a local dealership ten days ago; immediately discovered that the 'Cyberster' boot badge had a damaged 't' but at least we showed the salesman before we drove off (a replacement badge has been ordered). Unfortunately the lower front of the car was then struck while in a private car park about 30 minutes later so we have to deal with that. A lovely, lovely car in so many ways - especially the absolutely awesome acceleration - but we have found a few irritations:-

Radio - silent when the car is first started and needs the station to be changed to make it work. Sub-woofer seems to be dead.
Driver's seat - Doesn't always move back after you get in.
Phone - even though paired, won't access the contact list.
% Consumption Display - the 'aircon' category doesn't include power being consumed by the heater.
Random audio announcement - "CLIMATE CONTROL ALREADY STARTED" with no link to any actions on our part.
Whine from rear - loudest on gentle deceleration, but present whenever decelerating. Is this part of the fake vehicle sounds?

I've seen threads about the fragile boot badge, the silent sub-woofer and the driver's seat not going back but can anyone comment on the other issues?

Thanks
 
The whine, could it be a stone that’s stuck?

The Cyberster is a pain for picking up stones and locking them in place.

The radio is hit and miss for me. It sometimes automatically works and sometimes doesn’t.

I’d deffo get the car back to the garage to look at the whine though if you’ve just collected it.
