Picked up the beast today. A near 2 hour handover; thank God I took a 23 yr old who ran through all the gizmos. Looks beautiful, although we had to change the number plates because they were covered in adverts for the garage - tacky! Now plain and smart. Put it straight into Dynamic mode. Wonder if this increases fuel consumption? Not Sport, just dynamic? Wanted it to stay on the lowest suspension setting (in Dynamic) but on the move it automatically switched to the middle setting when we got going. Is this normal? Can I not keep it in the lowest suspension setting? Audio, phone, etc all good. Music reasonable but coming from a Bose set-up in my sadly exchanged Audi A6 Avant (what a good car!) its not a massive improvement. Will have to play around with it more. Noticed the cheap lower plastics but up above there are cow hides everywhere...so satisfying. Foot operated tail-gate takes lots of trying...but we got it in the end.
Hadn't thought about this beforehand but Ill need a Micro data-only Sim to get all the on-line stuff going, including the fancy App thing; pay-as-you-go I guess? Any comments on this? A similar type to those iPad owners I guess? Is it worth it? I imagine it is.
Oh, and the wrist band "key" thingy works SO well! No carrying around a heavy key any more in the shops, gym, etc.
Wallows a bit after the Audi, even in Dynamic, but.....everything else is like being in some Scandinavian designed, super cool, minimalist house full of Vitra furniture, topped off with a priceless favourite view over rolling hills and.....ok ok, Im getting way too over-the-top here, sorry. But, its just the most wonderful feeling being in something SO new, SO futuristic and SO cool....even though Im not cool and too old to be futuristic myself.
Those of you waiting, have patience. Those of you dreaming, order one. Those of you already driving one, wave to each other smugly. Its how I feel. Like a big cat who got all the cream!
