    I have a question I hope can be answered here i took delivery of a new qashqai on Monday 27/1/25 while I am happy with the car me nor my wife can get used to the electric hand brake we really want a car with the old style h brake anyone know if I would be allowed to swap the car through the scheme thanks in advance

    I would agree with the TonyCr, mechanical handbrakes are on their way out (your accelerator is probably already ‘fly by wire’). Learn to embrace the change (an electric parking brake is at least easier to operate for those with reduced mobility). I miss the traditional handbrake because I could use it as a hand support when leaning out the drivers door to lift my wheelchair in one-handed. I’ve had to adapt and now use my transfer board, wedged in next to the passenger seat to replace that handy hand brake.

    blah, blah, blah
