I bought it second hand so received on assistance from anyone, thanks very much.

Having just bought an EQC i can confirm its quite a good car. range is not great but its very quiet, and quite fast. Handling is ok as long as you don't push it too hard, its so heavy it get quite hard to get it under control once you have "gone too far" but i have quickly learned how to handle...

I have holiday rental place in Avoch, i am up there often, must get my 3200 back on the road and meet up?

I wonder how a map would work? could we apply an overlay to google maps or something? If i had any spare time I would look into this. I am in Newmachar just north of Aberdeen and I don't think there are any 3200's up here, a few QP's and Ghibli I think.

Had my 3200 up in west a few times. not recently, must try again!

I was all modified by Falkand performance at some expense (£28k I seem to remember) before I purchased it. And I actually think the standard car would probably be more fun to drive, as this thing was a bit mental. It felt right at the Nurburgring (me driving in the photo) but was pretty unruly...

also dropping into a lower gear approaching a corner would lock up the rear wheels if you were not careful. Drove this mental thing in the wet and the snow and enjoyed it all but it did fell like it really wanted to kill me.

25 years old, 317HP on the rolling road, LSD, 950 Kg, RWD. Fibre glass body, light weight steel chassis that will corrode to nothing in less than 3 years no traction control, no ABS, no torque vectoring, no power steering, no roll protection, almost no possibility of traction or grip at full...

I would be a little concerned as to why you have no DTC's but do have an ECU error light? That in itself is a little odd. Stuff that creates errors (normally with a code) but does not affect the engine running too much are - Knock sensors (very common), O2 sensors are previously mentioned...

I drove the new EQC back to Aberdeen from London and only waited for less than 5 minutes at one charging station. All the other stops were free (not in use and not broken) and worked perfectly. I was quite impressed with the number of new and quite high powered chargers (350kW) that were...

At the risk of invoking some EV haters I have also just bought another EV, and purely because of the cabin noise (or lack of it). I am still trying to find a taxi for my wife's sever tinitus and hyper acousis. So its ludicrously quiet, comfortable and actually quite good to drive. It has more...

Have not done it myself but its pretty hard to get at. I would imagine that a lot of parts would need removed to get it out of there.

Wow!! That's lovely.

I wish these Genesis EV's were a little cheaper as i have driven the old Genesis V8 saloon and it was a good car, really nicely made and the EV looks truly epic. I now have an EQC which i got because it was ludicrously quiet and comfortable and I hope will help with my wife's tinitus and hyper...

I am in the process of selling a 9 year old i3 which has 97% of new capacity in the main battery and no sign of any impending problems. Its chassis is carbon fibre and aluminium and the body panels are all plastic. It will outlive most ICE cars quite easily I suspect on its original battery...
