Oh I can, but I can't see the point of the Skoda emblem.

If mine go again I'll look into getting them out and sanding off the Skoda emblem to get better light.

Ah OK so the 85 has battery preheating but the 80 doesn't? This isn't something I've seen when looking at car adverts I asked the VW dealer if the ID7 had battery pre-heat and his eyes just glazed-over. He clearly didn't understand. I have the 135kW charging on my iV80 and I can count the number of...

I've just bought my iV80 out of a 4 year PCP, at just over 3 years in. I was clearly going to keep it for a while so I've avoided interest by buying now.

Go onto the VW Finance account and request a quote, all very easy.

The V2 functionality is due by the end of March.

... or am I talking at cross purposes ... ?

Indeed. Interesting that I'm only seeing it after 3 years of ownership.

My iv80 is coming up to 3 years old and I've got the renewal request for the on-line services. Infotainment Online and Care Connect - remote access were clearly shown as "1 Time Purchase" so I spent £50 or so renewing them. I now see that my renewal has been extended by a year in each case...

Mine was connected again last night, no messing about with anything, it just started working. I suspect that the car goes into extended sleep when it has no connection, to save power. Even when the system comes back up, the car may not want to communicate until it wakes up to check. Messing about wi...
