It’s kind of exciting to find that the car sometimes locks itself after unlocking even if the key is not always in my possession. This morning unlocked the car and left the key dangling on fob in house back door before locking up and clunk - there it goes again. Locked! Once it locked because I...

Came across this vintage Sicura MG 50th anniversary limited edition watch. If you’ve got £3000 to spare and want to flash your MG credentials, it’s here at vintagewatchfever.co.uk I’ve no connection with this company. After my cheap Chinese watch fell apart after a mere two months I was...

Got pinged with a quick succession of alerts today. Yellow symbol on dash and then messages telling me that pedestrian alert was unavailable followed by forward collision unavailable and then ACC unavailable. Stayed on the dash for several minutes before eventually disappearing. Is this the...

On starting always get the alert telling me I’ve switched off lane assist. Yes, I know, I switched it off! Is there a way to stop this?

Wanted to leave my windows slightly open for the dog as I popped out for five minutes. Pressing the lock button caused the horn to sound and the doors wouldn’t lock. Is it not possible to lock the car with the windows open?
