My VM ID3 1st Plus: Captains log: 23 Sept 2021

Results from first road trip

First one: Nenagh to Tralee, slow traffic from Adare to Tralee: left Nenagh at 4:40, arrived before dark

2nd One Tralee to Nenagh, left Tralee at 21:30.

Drove at speed limit pretty much all the way, 55 kms is 120, the rest is mainly 100, wet and dark

3rd one shows what was left

so, at speed limit speeds, its 300 km range at a push based on the above

was 100% charged

This allows you navigate to any spot on the map, what you can't do is use it to save where you are as a waypoint, as you can't navigate to where you already are 😎

In relation to the proported misreading of the speed signs, my take, based on a round trip to Cahirsiveen, 200 km from nenagh, is that the gremlins are on the mapping software and not the signage.

Driving along in middle of nowhere and it says 30 kms/h detected and brakes.

Does the same in Nenagh

Having said that its lovely car to drive with the lane management, auto dim and bendy lights set up at night and the adaptive cruise control.

CCS in newcastle west was down, had twigged it on plugshare before hand so drove at 90 for 90 to that CP (14.2 kms/100 km) spent an hour 43 mins plus 17) getting back to 97% on the AC and then drove at 100 or 80 the rest of the way, got a few electrons over 2 hrs on a 13 amp in the hotel and drove back at speed limit in the dark: 17.4 kms/100, got home with 51 kms left. dry night no wind, 10 degrees, and not stressed after a 2:45 drive, it did message me to rest a while 😎

Anyone got a photo of inside the meter box where the cable to the EVCP came from the meter box and not the CU?

Thanks

When she was finished I told her I was driving an Elec, that had been in for some recall work last week and the service clock was now set for 2 years out.

In passing what is the service interval for the ID3

Which is more than can be said for most of us after a feed of beer and MSG laden fast food 😎

Looking at the PCP here in the context of an affidavit of means:

Is the bullet payment at the end a liability or a payment that need to be paid to keep the car?

As i dont own the car it's not an asset?

Thanks for this, what level of discounts apply for 2nd car, house, boat, etc?
