    I particularly like the autobrake when drivers door's open.

    Kylie Minogue ALWAYS springs to mind - ever since she was made trendy by Men Behaving Badly. "Ahhh, Kylie."

    I particularly like the autobrake when drivers door's open.

    Yup, must admit I didn't think I could ever possibly do it, but there it was - proof of the pudding.

    I particularly like the autobrake when drivers door's open.

    For all of the tech/auto/assists I'm saying I don't want or need, I just discovered how much I love the autobrake when drivers door's open facility. Got home, reversed into drive chatting with wife about the success of our road trip ( we don't get out much ). Went to climb out and the car shot...

    Never car (never-used features)

    Absolutely the way it shouldn't be done.If they are arguably safety devices ( see ABS) then there should be no degree of implementation driven by profit margins - obviously only in my opinion. I used to be involved in IT support for call centres at one point way back when and a great deal was...

    .... and, as is always the way with 'these things', the 3rd payment arrived in my account on Saturday, shortly after I'd mailed them to ask where it was. Very efficient ??. I will be participating in future to help them out ??

    Quite right too. Should be the standard for all things. If it's progress it needs to be an improvement on the previous iteration. ?

    Never car (never-used features)

    Yeah, pretty much (63). Although I have been using Android Auto for Waze and either youtube music or VLC for music for 5-7 years and wouldn't be without it now. Carplay?? What's that ? iPhone? Shouldn't you be in a Tesla ? ?? ( triggers set)

    Never car (never-used features)

    I was honestly very apprehensive about precisely this when I did it as my last several cars have had it. I drove to it and loved it. But, I must say I've become used to it again surprisingly quickly and haven't had to indulge in 'full contact parking' once since switching it off. It's very flat...

    Get a lawyer, without hesitation. You can just imagine MG's response ?

    Never car (never-used features)

    I'm with you. ??. Ever since you introduced me to towing mode I'm a lot happier. Made me very popular at the dealership too when I pointed it out there ? My standard is towing mode on, speed sign detector off, sleepy notification off. Regen - adaptive. I prefer to drive the car rather than let...

    Wow, that's comprehensive ??. I've got a different tariff which I'm paid based on 50% of what I generate regardless. It doesn't matter what I do, I could use 100% or 0, I get paid the same whether I export it or use it. As you say though, an hour = pence so not really worth the effort. Also...

    Fitting new reg plates. A couple of queries.

    I know, I'm the least OCD person I know and it'd keep me awake at night too ? Telling the dealer for their records when servicing etc ( undertray bulge ??)

    Fitting new reg plates. A couple of queries.

    I'm taking the '24 to the limit - might go and park on the local Waitrose carpark until midnight Sat eve ?. Note to self - must tell dvla, insurers AND dealer and AA ??. ( Hence the can it be done on a Sunday question. Think yhe important stuff dvla & insurance is automated so should be fine )...

    Fitting new reg plates. A couple of queries.

    So I'd probably get away with those on the front then, I mean it's obvious what it is.... but will probably swap them to keep it cleaner looking ? I prefer the ones on the back - stainless dome, reflects what's surrounding them.

    Fitting new reg plates. A couple of queries.

    As my period of taking the full glory of owning a new '24 reg car ( my first ownership from new) comes to an end on Sunday I've invested in a private reg to swap in when '74 becomes 'the thing' , Sunday....or mebbes Monday, depending on admin availability. A couple of queries if I may ? 1. Can...

    I'm swapping my dealer supplied '24 plate ( with dealer name) for a private (23) plate with no dealer name on September 1st - not long now ??. Anticipation is everything, savouring the moment. Just checked the calendar, maybe Sept.2 ?

    I did the same with my Hawkins sticker after I'd specifically asked them not to put one in AND THEY'D AGREED NOT TO!! ?. Unfortunately it was a long one and on the inside. I'd left it a couple of days before I managed to get round to doing it, pretty sure they'd used superglue. All over the...
