Don't worry about that as every service is on the computer system so they know exactly what has been done, when, by who and what parts (with serial numbers) were used (if any). BUT they should still have stamped the book for you :D

Strange, the 'incentive' to have lower emission vehicles was the lower VED. Now you may as well go back to 4.5 litre V6 in a sub £40,000 car. What a mockery

Surely, as a driver 'In Charge' of your vehicle, you are responsible for everything that happens in your vehicle therefore you must educate your passengers to keep away from buttons, levers and switches. Simple as that really. :D

Have you registered to be exempt from the congestion charge? Evidently it is not automatic.

Can the OP not just drive to a country that can do the service - I understand this could be costly and time consuming but I think it would be the only way to get a full and proper service to maintain the warranty. Personally, I wouldn't have even considered the car without the backup locally.

I am using 2 x Mini 0803 cameras, both with GPS. Great little units. There is a newer model now, the mini 0806. https://www.joovuu.com/gb/home/106-mini-0803.html

I have forward and rearward facing dash cams in my car and I would not be without them. Regarding if they can see your brake lights, unless you have one fitted outside the rear and looking forward I don't think any camera will see them. The other way would be to use the brake light feed wire...

Regardless of how complex it is to turn it on, your vehicle is under warranty and this is a defect which should be rectified by ANY Mitsubishi dealer. Name and shame them and let Mitsubishi UK know about their attitude

I think I am doing a little to many miles to get one, around 25k/pa Hopefully I will be spending a few days a week in the office in the new year, only 32 mile round trip and I can charge it at work. If that happens then it will be a swing towards getting one.

I am sure an owner will pop along soon with more info, but from what I have read the thing to check is if you have any timers set. Hopefully that will be the problem. I am still undecided whether to buy or not :(

From Wiki The night storage heaters and hot water boilers are generally on a separate circuit which is only switched on when the night rate is activated, although any electrical appliance on an ordinary circuit during this period also runs at the lower rate of billing, such as a dishwasher or...

Could not agree more!
