I once went to Birchwood one evening and there were no fewer than 5 lorries blocking access. A sixth parked up and nearly blocked me getting out the space.

Drove to Liverpool today and I nearly had multiple heart attacks. On wider lanes it's ok but on narrower lanes in the 50 limit it kept hunting and was really not relaxing at all. I'm hoping the 42.3 update will fix this but for me it's better in some ways i.e. sees the lanes further ahead to...

It would have to be as the seats in the 7 slide all the way back until they are contacting the rear wheel arch. The 5 has fixed seats at this exact point too not possible for either config to go further back .

Yes it's probably a profile swap good to know thanks. Although with V9 now out this should never happen again as it's permanently ok.

It's already fixed, which version have you got??

Just got v9 2018.42.2 in my Oct 18 Model X too. Had a play, will take a day or two of adjustment but looks slick and contemporary, can also split the screens with the camera at the top, not sure what all the fuss was about ;) ;)

Woohoo I'm in the UK. Woke up this morning to an update got to work updated it and I've got V9 2018.42.2 i.e. the latest and greatest. Thought I wouldn't get it for a while!

Mine has turned off on its own a few times even on the same day with no software updates

I HAD the topfit tray, put it in the car friday, climbed in on sunday to a burning smell, the whole thing was fried, the 12v plug end had melted in the slot and the actual QI pad smelled burnt. Messaged them through amazon and got no response, just issued a return not sure I'd risk another one...

Have I missed this somewhere, I did do a search, my FWD surround does not have the Model X designation I used to see, when was this stopped?

On a on ramp that went 360 Deg round on itself it gave up the ghost and nearly hit the barrier luckily I was paying attention. Maybe V9 will have sorted these issues?

I love it that you yanks are all beta testing V9 for us Europeans so we get the tweaked and updated version ;)

It actually doesn't look too bad, is the FWD damaged or intentionally open? Airbags would have destroyed much of the interior and made for a much larger repair bill. The bumper and reinforcement of the frunk too the brunt of it, should be a fairly straightforward repair.

Driven nearly 1,000 miles on it in the last week, 99% on autopilot which makes distances so much easier. Got a few fit and finish issues to resolve no major alignment of body panels mainly to chrome and plastic trims and a few interior bits. Interestingly I cannot seem to get any traffic...

Following on from this post, My New X is here, pre collection taster... I finally collected my inventory X today that I secured back in August. There was an issue with sorting finance, but when that came through I left for a two week holiday so only managed to pick it up today. Anyway, I was...

P.s. sorry about my spelling I'm on my phone at the beach in Morocco whilst on vacation I'm just so excited to be picking the car up next week the day after I get back!

For what it's worth, my friend just bought a Q7 and I was considering one myself. In fact I put a deposit on a demonstrator for £58,400 at a local dealer. Then I realised it was going to have a facelift next year (Q8 styling and dash) then I considered the fact that 90% of my trips are very...

Glad it all went well with you, did you have Thomas or Ben? I've already been to Stockport to have a look at my car so no nasty surprises, there's a few small things to sort, but hopefully they will do so before I collect next week, I've not seen inside yet or opened the doors so hopefully they...

Yes this is something they're looking to sort. The car is fresh from assembly in Holland without any intervention from the SC. I asked to look at it in a raw state. This side needs a bit of tweaking, they've ordered a new rear window and trim peice and will sort the FWD trim to align with the...

Could it be a US / Europe thing? Final assembly of European cars is in Tilburg NED. I prefer Michelin anyway. The chap at the SC said they use both.

Pretty damn bad

Thanks guys, I hope to pick it up next week, just a couple of things to sort out. I went today to have a good look round and took plenty pics. I didn't get inside though. One alloy wheel is scuffed which they will replace for a new one, alignment seems to be 100% spot on from the nose to the...

My delivery agent kindly send me some pics of the X sitting in the compound awaiting PDI etc. He said they have noticed a misalignment on the drivers side trim so are ordering a replacement but I may nip round there and have a good look over in any event. Alignment doesn't look to bad at all...

My company fleet insurer refused outright to insure the car. I'm going to add it to my admiral multicast policy until renewal for an addition £325 over a 2014 535d M sport and then reassess in February when it's due for renewal.

Been given the same collection date for my X at Manchester South however I'm not done sorting the finance yet (year end 31st August) so it may get pushed back. Car is arriving in Monday next week so will have a gander before collection in the event there's some quick fixes required. Hope you're...

Love it all TexasRat thanks for these, saved to my desktop to drool over (sad I know) First new car ordered since I was 18 (now 36, that was a Fiat Punto!!) so naturally excited and somewhat apprehensive too.

Lovely car, nice to see another cream interior, I have the exact same spec on order (inventory car) but with 20" silver wheels. Any chance of seeing a few more interior shots? Glad your issues are "fairly" minor

Your P100D looks the bomb Anzir and so does your house. Congrats on both and enjoy always in good health. I have just ordered an X100D in Midnight Silver (cream interior) on 20" silver wheels. Won't look as stealthy as yours and certainly not as fast. Having palpiations as to what to expect...

And it goes without saying I'm delighted you got the issues sorted in the end. I hope you enjoy your X for many years to come.

Having just ordered an X100D in Midnight Silver I have been reading your post with huge trepidation. To say I'm fussy is an understatement... I'll try and go in without the bar set too high and maybe I'll go and inspect before collection to ensure issues are ironed out BEFORE collection. I...

Lovely spec, ordered the exact same on Friday but in Midnight Silver. Nice to see the cream interior, so many are black or white, I dont like the starkness of the white or the darkness of the all black, so cream for me was a good compromise. Looks Scandinavian with the pale wood and I now like...

Guys, panic over! Thanks so much for all your feedback, very reassuring. BTW I'm 5'9" and weigh 14st, I'm no lightweight but not huge either. I drove the car back to the dealer (sorry store!) this morning and asked to sit in quite a few X's. They all immediately felt far more comfortable and...

Hi Chaps, been lurking on this for a while now reading anything and everything to do with the Model X. Took a 24hr test drive last week and was very impressed, so much so that after dropping the car off I resolved to try and buy one. I have done the sums and it works out a similar cost to...
