    Hi Clipped Wings

    The Touran has been in my sights for years because it was a great offer for the AP in fact it should have been my current car had it not been for the 9 month delays due to it getting its WLTP ticket back in 2018 but fortunately for myself I have some financial changing coming in June so will be able to afford the AP on a Allspsace.

     

    Hi Gary

    I’m just wondering what you have been told the problems are with a 150Kg hoist?

    I say that because I have a KIA Carens fitted with an 80Kg Autochair LC Range hoist and back in February 2019 my car was rear ended (3 month old at the time) so I had to have a replacement car for a few weeks while mine was repaired.

    The hire car was the same make and model, same trim level right down to being the same colour so much so the Grand Kids didn’t even notice the car had changed when I picked them up from school.

    What was different is this car was fitted with a 150Kg Autochair LC Range hoist and it was exactly the same size as my 80Kg hoist so assume all that changes are the motors that drive the hoist and or the drive gear worms in the hoist but either way they where the same size. Can’t think why there would be a reason for a 150Kg hoist not to be fitted to a car that can take an 80Kg one unless its to do with scooter / wheelchair type.
