It is heavily based on the new C3 Aircross but looks OK and will be much more sensibly priced. New interior looks great and metal work especially the rear looks nice but you can see the C3 in it too.

My guess it has been broken at some point and the USB port has been removed as the surround that holds it is present. Hopefully the wiring is still there too and just needs a new one fitting and plugging in. It was standard fit as we had a 68 plate Grandland X and used it quite allot.

Interesting to know that cyberbob. Might see if mine does that. I know the electronic button for the handbrake doesn’t really need to be pressed, but I do it to kinda still give me some traditional feel to a car. Interesting on the just leaving it in D though. Mine always starts back up in N too. I...

I have a Peugeot 2008 with the same engine and 8 speed AT gearbox. I simply come to a stop with foot on brake and turn the engine off, car automatically puts handbrake on never bother knocking it out of drive as car does that when you switch the ignition off. Our manual Grandland X also puts on the ...

We have just started a look as coming up to three years with our Grandland. Frontera is one that will be worth a look at others are XC40, GLA, Q3 and Tiguan. Deals are pretty poor across ICE cars from a bit of digging. Still shocking that a current Grandland Ultimate is more expensive than a XC40 or...

All Peugeot and Vauxhalls now have 6 months, my 2008 came with three years in March and is now 6 months on the facelift version. Just penny pinching along with unrealistic pricing across both brands. The number of models from PSA that now come without standard Sat Nav too, 32K car and SAT Nav is an ...

Sounds like the blower motor has either ingested some debris and is sticking or the blower motor is faulty. Our first Grandland was a 68 plate and had to have a new blower motor under warranty after 18 months, only fault we had.

Only the centre sections are real leather outers are leather effect. I use Gliptone leather conditioner and our seats look as good as new with 16K on the clock and over 2 years old. That does look like cracking of the pvc faux leather.

I have undertaken two quick mods was going to do on our last Grandland then knowing it might be going decided to leave it. Replaced the front side indicators with the smoked black scrolling type at £10.99 for the pair worth a punt and they do look good especially in operation. I like stock less the...

What I hate about it is the poor gearbox. When I change the car I'm going to consider an automatic. I have the automatic gearbox with the 1.2 petrol engine. I've done nearly 4,000 miles now and am very disappointed in the gearbox. The turbolag or what ever it's called is quite bad. Pulling out quic...
