My Thoughts on 1000 Miles In my Cupra Born

Hi All, My car clocked over 1000 miles today, so I thought I would write a few observations of ownership so far. So, in no particular order.. 1) Car is a lovely drive, so smooth and very easy to drive. 2) Car looks good from all angles, many have commented that it is a good looking car. 3) Car is re...

Re: Red Light when Charger Connected

The red light is normal when you plug in but there is no juice until the schedule starts. It flashes white then turns red for maybe 2 or 3 minutes? The car doesn't know you are on a schedule so reports it as a failure to charge before the light extinguishes. Its reported in the app as a failure as ...

Re: Puncture - Anyone know if Repairable?

Was that another Cont 6 Conti-seal for £159 at other places? I looked at all the usual big websites like black circles and a few local tyre places. Plenty of other choices, but not the Conti at all but 1 place, and they wanted £192. Yes, it was for the correct Conti-Seal 205/50 R19 93T for the V2.....

Re: Hi from South West London

I have the Hypervolt..

Works fine but the app is a bit buggy, doesn't calculate the charge cost correctly.

Nice hardware though, and the support is second to none.

I agree, I have a Hypervolt and all is good...

Re: Puncture - Anyone know if Repairable?

Repairable? Well, the answer was no, I needed a new tyre.. I called round a few tyre places and could have got one for £159 fitted, but as the car was at the dealers and they said £172 fitted, I got them to do it. Interested on the comment above, about the tyres being quite thin, maybe punctures ar...

Re: Puncture - Anyone know if Repairable?

Yep, it is a V2 with 215/50 R19 tyres. It is fitted with Conti Eco Contact 6 tyres, which I believe contain the Conti Seal gunk.. The car warned me that right rear tyre was low on pressure, and sure enough it had dropped from 36 psi to 26 psi.. Car is going to dealers on Friday to have a small snag ...
