I have an MY23 PlusFour bought new in July 2023.
No problems with any of the early model version issues.
Two things sorted by the dealer under warranty.
New pcb that manages the speed/revs/fuel gauges as the old one failed leaving just the square screen workingok so actual speed and warning lights available. Just a couple of days for the dealer to diagnose and get the new pcb from MMC.
A niggle with the fuel filler cap,,,, awkward to remove/refit. Dealer did a quick fix and now perfect. The fix....a very small ( I mean very ) rounding off of a sharp corner of the plastic inner part so it now releases and relocates perfectly easily.
Wipers can sometimes judder a bit but getting less.
Fuel gauge and range.... confusion about usable fuel range due to tank design means most people use 250 miles as a trigger to fill up. My dealer reckons there is about 70 miles range left when the fuel warning light comes on. I haven't tested that! Never been a problem on long runs though.
No problems with luggage rack mounts sofar ( tempting fate ?
)
A negative ( minor only so apologies) is the positioning of the usb sockets in the rear of the glovebox. Satnav/phone connection still possible but I’d prefer them accessible on the dash/console.
Storage for the jack/tyre goo would be better than on the rear shelf or floor behind the seats. I don’t have the accessory option of the rear shelf storage extra.
I like the car. Auto version but manual modes if needed. I’m not missing a manual gear change. Paddles are there to use if wanted.
The Plus Four has 250 bhp with8 speed gearbox. You can pootle about or release the “scalded cat” and boy does she go! Last September I got 50+ mpg on a couple of days touring Scotland.
Just spotted your question about rain leaks....none found. One thing to remember when raising/lowering the hood or lifting the rear to access the shelf... un clip the tenax clips on the lower corner near the rear of the door. Get a routine of doing that as first or last action. If not the tenax pins can be snapped due to tension. One of mine did ( silly mistake) so I replaced it with a different pin unit. A two screw version meaning no need to extract the old snapped off one. Careful drilling needed but a simpler solution.
