      Just got the call from the dealer. Our Chery Tiggo 8 ‘Summit’ ICE will be ready 1130, Friday 10th April. They got the car yesterday, but hoist fitter couldn’t get there before the 10th.

      Yay!

        Big Yays! Shame about the hoist delay but could be worse! Might be joining you with the Tiggo 8 in a couple of years if the sizing works out for us, and if Motability doesn’t remove it or price it into oblivion obviously! Good luck and may you enjoy your soon to be had adventures!

          The AP went up yesterday by £1,100 from what we paid back in Feb.

                There will indeed be pics and a report, with a follow-up after a month of ownership.

                  Just a quick note. The petrol version of the Tiggo 8 does NOT have Satnav. It does have Apple car Play and Android Auto, but that is relying on your mobile signal strength. Therefore poor signal poor satnav

                    Yep, I know. Never had a problem in current car using Apple Car Play.

                    Picking up Tiggo 8 this morning.  🙂
