Polestar 2

Assume you'll be handing it back, most of them will hardly be worth the gmfv with the discounts the last while? The business edition of the 4 has ruined resale on those too

Well at least it served it's purpose in that sense, deposit is gone but your protected on the downside v owning it yourself! I think the 4 is lovely but I'd be wary....

Goes without saying, but if you opt for the lowest possible monthly, you’re paying €zero towards the deposit on the next one.

Did anyone have any experience with the change of ownership in the Polestar services?
I recently purchased a Polestar 2 from a non-Volvo/Polestar dealership and I'm not seen as the owner of the car when I login on my Polestar ID.
I was told that I can go to any Volvo dealership with the certificate of registration but I'm trying to avoid driving 1 hour for something that can be done online.

On a second question: What are the Polestar contact details? The website only lists the Polestar Dublin sales office which is different from Polestar Ireland and their number is not in service anymore.

Thanks! I got a reply today from this email address as I used the online form and they transferred the ownership.

I see the "Connected services plus" is expiring in March. Does anyone know how much does it cost to extend it? I can't see any options to subscribe or purchase.

Has anyone tried to get the retractable towbar installed? Any idea of prices?

Since the change in dealership, there have been some changes. Spirit Volvo serviced my car and later replaced a couple of faulty parking sensors under warranty.

Also, a few weeks ago I hit a rock on the side of a country road and blew out both nearside tyres. They were both write offs unfortunately - only 10k on them. So I hit the 'Connect' button on the ceiling and after some faffing a tow truck came and dropped the car back to my house.

The roadside assistance is managed by Allianz and they had to give permission for the lift back to my house as it's usually required that the car goes to a service centre or tyre depot. But since the tyres weren't in stock anywhere, they agreed.

One thing I learned is that you can't rotate the wheels, they're 1" wider at the back. So I had to remove the two nearside wheels a couple of days later, bring them to the tyre depot for the new tyres to be fitted, bring them home again and put them on the car and then drive back to the tyre depot for the front right to be swapped with the rear left so that there were matching tyres on each axle (the replacements were a different make from the originals).

That price from Spirit is for the genuine towbar afaik. Used to be available to buy in the 'shop' but for some reason that section isn't there any more.

Well that price from Spirit was the price in the Polestar 'shop' before it closed down. That's why I assumed it was the genuine one. The others are a bit spicy.

Hope you get sorted soon.

That's not great is it?

Mind you with many tyres now starting at 6mm vs 8mm in the past it may be inevitable I suppose.
