Things I have learned about the S6 today.

I’ve also had previous experience of the feature, can’t believe it’s not mentioned in the key functions in the owners manual, the M3 has it, and a bit more.

Impressive, definitely a car park or at the lights, show stopper. Nice motor and great colour combo.

Funnily enough I just did mine an hour ago in prep for it's journey to Brighton and London over half-term week from tomorrow. But I did mine the old-fashioned way, with a sponge and the Supagard shampoo. The pesky birds roosting in the oak tree have been using my S6 for target practice! If it weren't for those deposits I'd put up with the mud and let the copious rain wash it free of mud... I'm not one for washing my car(s)!!

Bird crap can really screw up paintwork with the stomach acids in it, so much so If I get any it’s removed straight away with waterless wash and wax, any amount of companies make it these days.

I find washing a car therapeutic not a chore, I’m sad that way.

Took me 6 months to find that combo combined with the carbon dash and interior fittings, the engine is a work of art and they’ll never make another one.

Agree. And if they've been eating Blackberries, your really in the Shit, so to speak. Don't laugh, it's true.

Hi Giller
Re the windows opening it’s known as Lazy Lock function most modern vehicles feature it and many MG models have it my MG 5 trophy does also but for your reference the screenshot here is from the MGS6 manual and instructions page 91 hope it helps you understand it better.

Thanks for that, found similar in S6 manual, buried away, must keep reading.

Yes. Appreciate that. That's why I was 'forced' to wash it. I've got some stuff specifically for that in the Supagard pack, and some stuff for the alloys... which I might use on the Disco 3!
