Thanks very much for the information

The repeated DAB station name alert is the Intelligent suggestions “feature” (aka annoyance) ?

To stop it from constantly suggesting things you will need to create a driver profile in settings. As part of setting up a profile it will ask if you want suggested items - click “No”.

The pop ups will stop after that ?

No worries - it was one of the first things I did when I took delivery of my new car last week

Well today is Collection day.
Anyone know a firm with experience on fitting a front and rear dash camera in the Mache ?
I know there are plenty installers around I would rather travel a bit if required to a firm or someone with experience on these cars. It’s nothing fancy I only want it powered on when i I am driving . It’s a Nextbase 380 GW .
I am in the Greater Manchester.
thanks

No idea re dash cam but good to see another MME user in Manchester. I'm based in South Manchester and I am now seeing several MMEs on the M60 over a week or two

If you use the indicator/turn signal it knows you are lane changing and doesn’t try to fight you

Good to know! I've got a narrow road which i have to travel each day, with cars parked either side, so only enough room for one car - hence if another car was approaching me i guess the sensors are doing their job and alerting me to a possible collision, so it makes perfect sense in this instance.

Thanks for the info

Welcome to the south west Mach-e owners club!

Thanks Tony, i actually drive past Vospers Plymouth every morning so if i see you up this way i'll give you a wave haha.

Finally picked up car. thanks to those who helped with my impatience.

Fantastic as a Passenger! Not been allowed to drive yet as wifey has suddenly become territorial over the car, but tomorrow is my turn!

one question, when Listening to Spotify music using car play, I keep getting a dab station name popping up on the screen. Any ideas why?

thanks

Congrats mate! You'll not want to hand it back to her every again, believe me - the mrs has tried, and failed to do the same to me ?. The one thing i've ever put my foot down about, not least because she recently had a run-in with a hedge ?

Is that the number plate plastic or the bumper plastic? It's not as if they're not doing this day in day out? (Does a double negative even make sense)

Just the actual plate plastic thankfully - i imagine some over-zealous employee at the dealership with an SDS drill screwing in plates like their on some kind of timer. It's cool though, they're going to replace at my place of work as opposed to me leaving it with them for god knows how long!

Dumb Question 1 - does the car notify us of upcoming servicing? i surely hope so. my previous one did. saved me the hassle of writing dates down.

Dumb Q 2 - how does MOT work for these cars? are our cars exempt? i have a feeling they aren't, but MOT kicks in only after three years (assuming bought new). is my understanding right?

I used the home fitting service offered by nextbase. But be sure to tell the installer on the day you don't want a live connection.

I'll be travelling past Vospers on my way up to Newton Abbot on Tuesday hopefully- not sure what time yet!

Nextbase have their own mobile fitters- I used them to fit mine front and rear earlier in the year- very good and surprisingly inexpensive. Give them a call or look on their website.

Thanks you

Hey, so yeah the MOT is still mandatory but only after 3 years from it's first registration date. I'd imagine the MOT would need to be done by a specific garage who specialise in EV's however, due to some possible inspection / test items not being covered by a traditional mechanic.

As for the servicing, i'd imagine this is built in as a notification but i'm not 100% - the easiest thing i do is set a yearly reminder on my phone... gives me a nod a week or two before it's due then. You'd think with all the tech however that the MME would give you a service update, or even the FordPass app perhaps?

Hope this helps.
