Needless to say, the dealer has been completely useless. No response at all. There will be a huge to-do if they try to wriggle out when I present the car for service after the warranty has run out. |

No, nearly 3 years old, and it’s the first thing to go “wrong”.
The car has otherwise been perfect in every way and I get a great deal of pleasure driving it. |

First warranty fault on my SVR: the rubber tether keeping the petrol filler cap attached to the car has failed!
I assume it’s user installable, so will email the dealer to get a replacement... |

You can see the interior through the windows, even though the doors don't open. |

Haven't been on the forum for a while but my SVR is now 2.5 years old, it was one of the first, and it has been perfect. Nothing has gone wrong and when I was out in it last evening, I thought what a ... |

I think the carbon option is well worth it and includes the steering wheel trim as well. I also have the engine cover which is obviously more marginal.
I think the cost of the option is reasonable ... |

Yes, but you might reasonably expect a car costing 100k to be better built than your Viva was and as a result be built to tighter tolerances and so require less running in. Running in is all about co ... |

Sad news indeed for someone who helped his local communities, in sharp contrast to the former owner of a retail chain known mostly for its lighting.
For us still here, those usual words "Car ... |

It's interesting that if you go to WeBuyAnyCar and get a valuation, no account at all is taken of optional extras fitted to the car which confirms what others have said that they count for next to not ... |

Yes, I remember seeing the plastic one listed on the parts screen. More durable and (a bit) cheaper.
It used to be the case that manufacturers would sell all the parts individually. I remember repl ... |

I assume my SVR has the 105 litre tank but the fuel gauge is very pessimistic so than even when the remaining range is zero, I can only put about 90 litres in it. |

This is just a warning to everyone not to accidentally damage the central air bag cover on the steering wheel.
My car went in for service in March and I noticed a few weeks later when I was driving ... |
