I'm not fussed enough to make a special request out of it but I'll mention it next time the car is in for something else.

I never even had a satnav before I got a phone with Android Auto on it and now I worship the thing. It works so well with my MG4 it's absolutely uncanny.

I wonder if it's a camera calibration thing?

Really great news John. (Some of that weight loss will be gut fill and water, so it will go back on again, but not all of it, so congratulations.)

😆 I test drove an X-Power at Harrogate but under circumstances where it wasn't easy to let it rip. Also, they gave it to me in ECO. 😬

I had an amazing one from the Co-op here when I was househunting, it had a Co-op own brand wrapper. But once I'd actually moved here I never saw that again, just the usual Mother's Pride, and within a few years I'd pretty much gone off it.

The lights have 20 amp fuses. The amount of power they draw is negligible. I used to leave them on all night with blackout blinds over them when I was camping in the car, before I realised how easy it is just to pull the fuses. Honestly, I don't notice the difference. You'll never flatten any...

I now officially do not have a clue. The times I drove for more than three and a half hours without a break I was telling myself, well, I didn't feel tired, maybe whatever is supposed to trigger just didn't trigger. But on the way home from Oban it was warm and I was definitely sleepy and if...

No, I'm not sure. And I'm not going back to that dealer either.

I had this update in May but my HVAC still isn't as good as siteguru says his is. If I have the A/C on then the air always blows a bit cool even if the temperature is set quite high, and I have to turn it off in cooler weather. This means I don't use the Auto setting so much. It's not bad, but...

Now I'm really baffled. On my way back from Oban, intending to charge in Stirling, I really was tired. I knew I was a bit impaired, I had to keep pulling myself back to alertness, but I wanted to get to Stirling and get the car on a charger before I stopped. I got there, connected up to the...

I have discovered who owns the green X-Power I've been seeing around the place. One of our church elders, who lives about two minutes walk from me. Brand new 25 plate. I will probably have to tell her how jealous I am some time soon.

Late to the party, guys.

I used to be absolutely addicted to the stuff, importing it into England in bulk when I lived there. This is basically from when I was quite a small child, sneaking the "outside" of the loaf and so on. Some years ago I either lost the taste for it, or the loaves weren't so good. I never buy it now.

I had it done years ago, total false alarm. It really wasn't all that bad, and the scan itself was no problem. I think they gave me a sedative but it didn't seem to have any effect. I felt a bit off later in the day but that was all.
