The White Seal with the dark tints and accents looks great

@ArnoldClarkAutos 9 ай бұрын

It's a strong look.

Been looking to change from an M440i gran coupe and popped into BYD Linwood yesterday, Scott was great and gave me a full show around and I was lucky to get a test in Design model. Have to admit I really enjoyed it, first impressions its great.

Always good to make a strong first impression. It's great to hear that you had such a good experience at the branch.

@kerrwhatley4682 9 ай бұрын

At least you got a test drive! Had one booked at Perth but turned up to find the car had been taken down to Linwood that morning.

Hopefully you'll get an opportunity to test-drive one soon! And in the meantime, we hope that this video was useful.

@@ArnoldClarkAutosI have done test drive byd seal performance, I feel little continuous vibration on the steering wheel column (feels like not enough cushion on the front axle) especially when passing rough asphalt road or uneven road surface, please kindly share your experience regarding this issue

BYD have done a great job with the Seal. However I would choose the Xiaomi SU7 over the Seal if it ever makes it to the UK.

My Seal (EU) has wireless AA and Carplay?

@RickRobinsonDonnellan 7 ай бұрын

Mine supposedly has wireless AA and wired ACP

@andrewdalton3185 3 ай бұрын

they added wireless AA and Carplay apparently via an OTA update a few months ago

Test drived today and it was a great experience. The only thing I didn't like was all the safety sounds that came frequently and loud. There is a way to turn most of it off, but it turns on the next time you start the car.

I was able to sit in the BYD range at a dealership but no test drive available. I agree the Seal is very comfortable and attractive. Biggest drawback for me (and my dog) is lack of a hatchback. I currently have a VW id 3 which is very spacious.

@ArnoldClarkAutos 9 ай бұрын

The ID.3 is a good choice. There will definitely be more demonstrators available soon.

On the test car the indicators were on the right but when I bought the car they were on the left as normal, love the car after 2 months of ownership couldn't fault it, would like to see wireless CarPlay and a better app.

Good to know! That's great to hear that you're still enjoying it. Hope you have many more happy years of driving.

What do you think of all the safety sounds in the car? I find it a bit annoying that it alarms even if I drive a few km faster than the speed limit.

Just test drove a seal, Tesla model 3 order now cancelled 😂 BYD is an amazing car and more like an ICE vehicle with buttons, stalks and stuff

@ArnoldClarkAutos 3 ай бұрын

Excellent choice! Glad it has the features you like. Teslas can be a little clinical inside, although that's also part of the appeal for many.

@electromega3077 9 ай бұрын

TBH, BYD should add an option where the owner can use the animal sound as horn that associated to the model.

@ArnoldClarkAutos 9 ай бұрын

You would definitely get out of the way if you heard a Seal barking at you.

You're most welcome! There are plenty more videos with those dulcet tones.

@@ArnoldClarkAutos Nice presentation but would benefit from improvement in audio. There's far too much boom or echo or reverb (not sure of correct term). Often adjusting microphone placement provides huge benefits (as opposed to a pricey mic).

@westbr08 8 ай бұрын

Why does every British review of this car go on whinging about the indicators? In Australia yes they tend to be on one particular side, but when there is a brand who has it on the opposite side WE JUST GET ON WITH OUR LIVES every British review I’ve seen on this car acts like their first born was stolen 🙄

@ArnoldClarkAutos 8 ай бұрын

As it was something that happened during the review, we thought it was worth mentioning. We apologise for this overreaction and from now on, we will fully embrace stoicism.

@DshibiGT 4 ай бұрын

RHD markets usually, or used to, have the indicators on the right of the wheel. It seems the UK has succumbed to the left being the norm because of all the Euro cars on the market. Always see it in UK reviews now, as said, in Australia we just accept it and get on with it haha.
