My feedback on this vehicle.
POSITIVES
1) Overall impressions - a very robust well constructed vehicle.
2) Fuel consumption to date is around 22-23 mpg (Diesel).
3)The ride is exceptionally good considering its on coil springs and live axle.
4) Steering, is different but you get used to it as others have noted and therefore is not a problem.
5) Air conditioning works well.
6) Seats comfortable.
7) Controls all easy to use (see disadvantages).
8) Headlights very good (love the LED pattern front and rear).
9) Diesel engine performance is as expected, once out of first gear, like any other ZF gearbox on tarmac (cannot comment off road).
10) Accessory market from INEOS and other suppliers is developing fast.
NEGATIVES
1) Warning messages - should be eliminated with software update in 4/5 weeks.
2) No colours on the Radio stations icons (expect a fix with software).
3) No driver grab handle.
4) Script for AC is below the switches, until you learn the switches not easy to identify in comparison to other switches on the centre stack, where the script is above.
5) Compass Digital display unreadable in daylight.
6) RHD - left foot rest could be made smaller and thus benefit people like me who don't like it.
7) Didn't buy a tow bar - mistake as at the moment it cannot be retrofitted.
OVERALL
Very happy with the vehicle and would highly recommend my agent - Chandlers, Belton and Horncastle.
