Just had confirmation that the LED fog lights are fitted. One of only a few Qashqais that have, apparently! ;)

@ Sandgrounder : "... I just hope they can find some petrol so I can drive it home as I don't think the "mild hybrid" system will be much use in that respect! ... "
Next time we wait for the ... QQ Tekna Flintstone trim ! :lol:
BTW In China it is getting even worse than in the UK ... it seems an EV is no longer better choice over there (coal or something like that still is) !

Yes, I like the idea of the Flintstone trim! :lol:

The dealership found out today that the amount of fuel that Nissan puts into the cars when leaving the factory is enough for 3 miles. Only because the BP petrol station around the car was out of fuel and the staff had to travel further afield to fill a customer’s new car but ultimately they had to be rescued! :oops:

OMG Sandgrounder, is it that bad already over there !
This is in fact all too ... insane.
A few years back this would have made the perfect script for a SF or ... even disaster FANTASY movie, but now it is all happening to all of us in real time !
Sometimes when I wake up I have to pinch myself to make sure I am no longer dreaming.
Yet we here, ordering out QQ Teknas are still the fortunate ones ... I guess (and better reassure ourselves with this fact each and every day).
Good luck with your QQ Tekna, filled with as much petrol a man could wish for.
Decades ago when I was driving around the US and Mexico in my 8-cyl monster cars I sure didn't have to care about 1 gallon ... or many more (and as I wrote before I reckon) those were the days !

Yes, it’s been really bad over here the past few days. Most petrol stations ran out of fuel over the weekend, mainly because people filled up their cars unnecessarily due to some incorrect information released by an official from the Road Haulage Association?

Fortunately the BP near me has had a fresh delivery but fuel is now rationed to a maximum of £30 per person (at £1.36 per litre, that’s about 22 litres or just under 5 gallons).

It has brought out the worst in people, as you might expect - people have been using empty water bottles and filling them up with petrol and someone even used a bucket lined with a bin liner :shock: :roll:

If this keeps going then I guess even more people will decide to get an EV, sooner than they were planning to do so!
This is not good news for a QQ, better for the Ariya maybe!?
The UK seems to be in the middle of a perfect storm right now. Let's pray skies will become clear again very soon!

My QQ has arrived at the dealership! They said that mine will be the first towbar they have installed on the new QQ and handover is on thursday when the guy I have been dealing with comes back to work.

That's great news ilkka !
But I see that you didn't get the 20" wheels that normally go along with a Tekna+ trim !?
Curious what is (and what is not!?) included in your car.
I hope all (Tekna+) extra's are there for you as promised !
Also, of course, looking forward to your personal test drive(s) of the J12.
