Could you post a picture of the boot area showing the spare wheel in place?

Thanks.

Nice images, out of interest when you sync the phone and want to play music from it, can you make track selections on the device or do you need to use the phone still?

Red is a good colour!

There's a review by Jeremy Clarkson, in the Times today, with pictures of a High UP!

I'm hoping the interior is the same as the one we ordered!

Could you post a picture of the boot area showing the spare wheel in place?

Thought someone might ask! I'll do that when I can. The spare wheel sits at the very bottom and doesn't take any of the normal boot space, so you still get the same two-level boot with or without the wheel.

<div style="text-align: left;">On the Maps + More it'll display your phone name with seeking and then Back, Pause and Forward buttons.You can't browse the music library on your phone through the car though. You can also use the physical buttons on the car radio to switch tracks, which is useful when you have the Navigation or Car Info on display.

excellent! i really wanted to know both of those bits i was worried the spare wheel might take up some of the room. glad it doesnt. and good you can do some of the music controls on the maps.

p.s. the red looks awesome.... cant wait to get my red one too!

Consumption looks good so far at 52.7. Should get even better as the engine loosens up!

The trip computer there can measure a journey or the whole life of the car. It's interesting to see the MPG of different journeys - in one case I averaged 70mpg. I can see my drive to work is around 60mpg. (due to more hills and stops) You always feel rewarded for driving effciently as your average goes up and your driving range (miles
left) gets higher.

I'm estimating i'll get 500 miles from a tank - 100 more than my old C1! (which had the same capacity)Edited by: Tomodo

 

[MarkyMark]

Thats an impressive figure from the tank. I plan to drive like an old lady and see what is the best I can get!!

 

[R1ch]

You've obviously never seen my granny drive...."drives like she stole it!"

 

[GaveUp]

I presume we are going to have a 'miles per gallon' table - who cant get the highest and/or most miles from a tank?

 

[Tomodo]

Some more photos for you, this time showing it lit up!

Looks lovely and really nice dial lighting for the speedo and rev counter

 

[gary02tdi]

did you notice your dial go dim when it gets dark?
It's to remind you to put your lights on.

Lets hope its just the dial & not the driver as well

There's a tunnel near me and as soon as I go in it the car's dials all light up and then go off again. Is that what you mean?

I don't know yet, I'm usually in the car when I reverse!
