I woudn't mind betting the reason they haven't is that the money wasn't worth the upgrade. Mine's just over 3 years old from new and it hasn't given me a second's hassle. I still love it. Battery analysis tech decided that it was only going to give me 15 miles range the other day so on a 150...

Just had my third service plus MOT with Stoneacre in Chesterfield (Derbyshire) - first experience with them as bought the car in Leeds but the novelty of driving up there for a day out in November has paled.The Christmas market is cr*p, in my opinion. Anyway, all was well except they flagged up...

Orient Red is great - just cleaned mine after nearly a year and can hardly see the difference! Well, the chrome bits look a bit brighter. It must be the best colour, have you ever seen such a depressing choice? http://www.myoutlanderphev.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=341&start=140 Jim B

I came to the PHEV after a very satisfied few years with my Skoda Superb Greenline and have been very happy with the Mitsu but ironically am looking forward to seeing the specs and prices of the Superb PHEV alleged to be launching in 2019. JimB

Tell her to ditch the Apple phone and get an Android. My offspring have Apple phones and we can never hear what the snowflakes are rabitting on about whereas they can always here us saying 'what did you say you numpty?'

Any particular part of the world?

Roll up, roll up! I can also charge my model aircraft lipos from it, and crank any old ic car, including the wife's, and it was quite cheap so what th........ :-) ...and who wants to look for a feckin' home alarm battery when they're in the airport car park after their 4 week vacation! Jim B

What, so he's so busy updating his feacesbook page he can't be bothered reading the manual but thinks every other numpty around the world should try to figure out where he is and find the answer for him. Get a life!

I haven't had to use it at all yet but always glad to know it's there. I take it out of the car periodically to check the charge and it seems to have a very low self discharge rate, as maybe expected from a lithium pack. JimB

I suspect you could bet your bottom dollar that they didn't carry out the fuel efficiency and range tests on Toyos. Jim B

Fit Vredenstein Quatrac 5 (excellent!) or similar. I'm a recent convert to 'all season' tyres (maybe they've not been around very long (?)) but quite honestly now that they are I believe it should be a legal requirement in the UK to have them fitted if you're not swopping summer and winter...

Interesting, although disappointing (to me). I hoped that the next iteration would have significantly better EV range. I don't see 15% as near enough to compete with the range increases that pure EV vehicles seem to be achieving or to justify trading in for a new one. I'm more than happy with...
