Not sure what experience of mine I mentioned in connection with Toyota's problems. I am fully aware that they are a 'global' company but that doesn't alter the fact they are in trouble. Not as much as Nissan, Mitsubishi etc (the latter's global sales having dropped by 40% over the last few...

I have Drive-By-Wire cars and Ride-By-Wire bikes. Accelerator/throttle control is instant and would have zero impact on heal and toe shifting, although why you'd be wanting to do that on the road escapes me. Rapid downshifting on a motorcycle while blipping the throttle to match revs is for...

The Ionic 5 N (I think that's the model) has a fully simulated 'manual' experience with slight interruptions in the power delivery to mimic the gear shifts. Utterly daft idea IMO. Why try to simulate a worse driving experience. Beats me. Toyota is trying to put the entire world's shift to...

That covers ALL regular servicing costs? What is the service interval?

Some owners must have taken their Cyberster for a service by now. What is the maintenance schedule and expected costs?

Well I think they said it was the more popular before I indicated my preference. No matter, these are personal opinions. I don’t understand why you cannot have a red roof with the yellow. It wouldn’t be my choice, but I believe in letting people have their choice. It’s not really the...

I have a Jaguar I-Pace and similarly, it goes to sleep after a few days and needs to be woken up by opening the car etc. I think it's just the manufacturers trying to reduce power when not used for a while.

As you say, totally subjective. I actually prefer the 'red' interior with the yellow as it's not really red. Almost a dark tan. Whatever, I like it and my dealer said it was the more popular choice, so not just me.
