  1. You can initialise the TPMS in the setting menu via the steering wheel control on the left.
  2. It’s a vehicle carrier Tel! It says Gibraltar but my guess is it’s on its way to Livorno in Italy via the long way. Happy tracking!
  3. Have a look at a Yaris Cross. It’s just like a mini RAV4 but it’s higher than an LBX.
  4. You mean the 12v battery Claudia? You’d know by now if there was something wrong and the big traction battery which is under the seat is also well protected by fuses so don’t worry.
  5. It can but it can hang you too. If you drop even a slightly questionable clanger, they’ll want to see it!
  6. I never liked that idea on my old NX but I’m pleased to gloat that you can set it at any speed and vary it by 1mph on current models.
  7. Well it’s a bit late but here are the promised photos. This is the deck with all the boards in place. This is the part number on the back, it’s very hard to read and it’s no easier in the flesh. On mine you can drop that a level. Not sure about earlier models. Take that out and there’s a thinner board. It’s supported by the styrene insert. and this is the part number (sorry you’ll have to flick it over!) Take that out and you’ll see the styrene insert with spaces for gadgets. To get that out you need to pop the right side panels out (dead easy) but then you can see why you can’t get a spacesaver under there on an AWD. You might on a FWD but not a big one. These are the deck boards out. You can string the top one up while you rout underneath.
  8. Of the OE options, Dunlops are by far the quietest.
  9. The car arrived on the 8th at Portbury. It has to go to Toyota at Burnaston first then to the dealer who is predicting the 22nd. I sent you a pm with prices.
  10. I’ll check tomorrow but surprisingly cheap imo. I’ve got two mates taking delivery of a new car, one Yaris and one LBX and neither have shown anything on the app other than “order processing” until it’s turned up at the dealer. There was a delivery at Portbury yesterday and the ship has left for its next call at Zebrugge. Are you sure yours wasn’t on it.
  11. They’re an extra 2-3 weeks at sea now because they’re coming around Africa rather than the Suez.
  12. Battery problems are usually associated with low use and moreover following covid. We see this in our own little world but it applies to all brands. There was a definite problem with the Mutlu batteries but that may have been addressed in production. Time will tell.
  13. You’re not really comparing apples to apples. The UX has just been upgraded to the 300h which now has a similar mk5 powertrain to the new NX so it has a power upgrade, bigger motors and far better fuel efficiency. It also has the same touchscreen and software as the NX. What car will encourage you to buy a Peugeot over a Toyota, they’re journalists not engineers.
  14. A mate Terry. We did lots of changes to his Yaris Cross but it got written off in the first month. The waiting time for another matches a new LBX so he’s gone up in the world. He needs a towbar and lighting for his bike.
  15. It depends. If there is an option for an underfloor spacesaver and to do it properly it requires the side panels to be charged, then there’s quite a lot of work involved and with the parts, £2k isn’t unreasonable. However, if you’re happy with it just placed under the existing floor it could be done a lot cheaper.
