Trophy Dealer Questions

[drivethru]

Hey all

I'm due to pick up my trophy soon from the dealer.

I wanted to ensure all of the correct updates, recalls and fixes are undertaken before I drive away.

Can somebody help me with sharing what I should be requesting please?

There is no way to check if the updates have been done, you just have to take your dealers word for it. The only one you can check is the infotainment software version but although the latest version is R33 it doesn't seem to be much different to R24.

Walk round the car checking for damage, check the panel gaps, take a plastic bag to kneel on if it's wet and look underneath at the rear under-tray. Check the interior and inside the boot for the charging cable.

The dealer should help you bind the car to your phone so download the iSmart app before you go and set up your account but use you email address for the confirmation code not your phone number. When binding the car the app will ask for a pin number. Put whatever you like in but remember it. I suggest you write your app password, pin and the email address you used to set up the app down.
