@maizrapaz@Timoldland Every petrol car now that runs solely on the engine is called a mild hybrid. I have the mild hybrid version of this car and it doesn't run on any form of battery to drive, just the engine. Forget it's called a mild hybrid
@russ_nicol@Timoldland@AutoPap It is surprising how good it is! Gearing is setup right for the different speed limits which I think plays a part for good mpg. Which engine is in your Volvo? Family has had Volvos for years, even the XC60 with the B4 diesel could only do 45mpg on motorways
@russ_nicol@Timoldland@AutoPap Average 45mpg on a day to day basis with a lot of that being town driving. Trip from Ullapool to Dundee down the A9 with dual carriageway and overtaking sections was 58mpg. I just have the 140hp manual version. It'll sit at 50mpg at 70mph on steady motorway journeys
@Timoldland@AutoPap@russ_nicol One of the best cars I've owned. I've got the journey model and it's got everything I need. Plus having the Renault system to be able to configure assistance systems with one button is ideal. It's a no nonsense but can do it with some style type car imo
@AutoPap@russ_nicol@Timoldland I've gone from BMW's, Audi's and Cupras to a Dacia and I love it!! So affordable for what it offers. I paid £470pm for my X3. Identical spec X3 20d m sport is now over £800pm with same deposit amount. Prices have gone bonkers for the same model just 6 years apart
@AutoPap I was paying £600 per month in diesel commuting in a diesel 320d. Dropped to £45 per month for a e208 EV. Since switched back to petrol, but amount I saved was ideal!
@johnlewishelp how come if an order gets lost or damaged in transit that I have to wait 48 hours before you can bother to issue a replacement? Delaying everything even longer! If you know it's lost/damaged then a replacement should sorted straight away
@timoldland Going from an e208 with everything done via the screen to a Dacia with controls for the heating was a pleasant change 😅 and one button to turn the annoying 'safety' features off is also great 😅
@MartinM63marty@jdpoc@eBay_UK Did they end up moving or getting delivered? Tracking info for any items I have just show them getting accepted at the parcel shop then that's it
@AJGriffiths74@PookyD81 Just about to sell my e208 as the range is just not fit for purpose anymore with work and having to now public charge all the time
