Boot floor is not rigid like the earlier model and now I have put the spare wheel in it won't stay put on the top position when you put anything in the boot (golf clubs, trolley etc) but drops down. May have to buy a piece of plywood to slot underneath to give it the rigidity. My I-Pod is not recognised on the USB lead, only on Bluetooth, which means I have to manually select the albums/tracks from the device. As I said only minor niggles.
Glad you're happy with your new car, still waiting for ours. Are you aware that iPod does not have apple car play, if that's what you want to use, it's only on iPhones.
Thanks for that. Had the I-pod for a long time so obviously the operating system is way out of date.

You should still be able to select music, podcasts and playlists from the head unit, I can on SEAT and Toyota via blue tooth.
Grandland Ultimate 1.5 diesel auto blue with black roof, ordered December 2021, picked up December 2022, yes 12 months.

Oh no :-(. Called my dealer today said system says it’s down for august but might be September, as they have got more chips. Really wanted it for the summer but I’m not cancelling for the only reason that the salesman I deal with has been amazing over the years and is a really nice guy. Eventually I’ll have it :-)

Likewise, I also had £800 more for my Grandland X in part exchange than I paid for it 18 months ago.

I wonder if it depends what part of the Country you are in or which dealership it is as to the availability. Arnold Clark in the Cheshire area (where I got mine) seem to have some (manual and automatic plus hybrid) as do a couple of branches of Lookers.
