Ordered mine as a nearly new one instant delivery lolWell that’s at least 4 ordered now
The delivery race is on!
That’s a great deal mines only a used one 13k off list priceJust ordered our X-Power today - obviously gone for racing green to get the best 0-60 time!
Collecting in around 2 weeks. Happy with the deal - £5.5k off list price after some very hard haggling.
Really hope you get one of the good ones on the vibe front. Best of luck and enjoy!Well - I got the call today.
My car is with the dealer & will be ready for collection on Wed, great timing as the guy is coming back to complete the charger installation on Monday.
I'm actually considering booking the day off work so I can take some time and 'get used to the new car'!
I took delivery of a new grey Xpower last week and wow! What an amazing car!

I've only had it a few days but I'm incredibly impressed. A little disclaimer - I've never driven an EV before and I didn't bother test driving any others so I can't compare the Xpower to any of its contemporaries but just my past car owning history.
Firstly the best bit - the acceleration. The figures on paper give no indication of the adrenalin rush it gives you. It's absolutely mad and completely over the top, but I love it. It's so satisfying. Haven't attempted launch mode yet but put my foot down a few times when it's safe to do. From ~10mph to 40mph almost makes me light headed. Last time that happened was in a rollercoaster.
The rest of it - the drive is lovely. Smooth, happy at any speed and so easy to drive. Passengers might never have any idea of what it is capable of. It is going to be perfect for school runs, long trips, bombing it up and down A-roads and country lanes. Everything.
Getting my head round the technology, how to charge, using the app, the touchscreen and so on. All pretty good, a bit fiddly but I'll get used to that in time. Took me a day and consulting the manual before I worked out how to move the seat backwards and forwards! One of the levers is four-directional. I didn't realize!
Complaints - very little. No vibrations, no undertray dip, trim and interior all seem to be in place. Turned the indicator volume down as the default was way too loud for me! LKA seems very subtle. I really can't imagine needing to turn it off. I wonder why so many are having issues with it? Software update perhaps? I wish it would remember more of the driving mode settings, especially one-pedal driving. But I'll probably assign that to one of the fave buttons and driving mode for the other.
I expect I'll have lots of questions as I use it more. Thanks to everyone who answered my questions previously.
Just remember to use the Search function, lots of issues/questions have been answered numerous times before.I expect I'll have lots of questions as I use it more. Thanks to everyone who answered my questions previously.
Longest ever week coming up...Just got a message from dealer that my X-POWER (green) has arrived.....Not available for collection until next week sadly.
Well it's an extra weekend without having to worry about the vibesLongest ever week coming up...
Think positive vibes, not negative vibes. Hopefully it won't have any vibes. Some don't have it.Well it's an extra weekend without having to worry about the vibes
