    Surely one knows one's own town? One shouldn't need guidance to one's own doorstep! I programmed my local Police station as "Home" 😁

    From a supplier of conversion kits - "Are HID Conversion Kits Legal? Unfortunately, HID conversion kits are not road legal. No aftermarket HID kit is strictly road legal as you are changing the lighting system (from halogen to gas discharge) in your car and for this reason the bulbs cannot be E marked which is a legal requirement. You also won't have the self leveling and washer systems installed which is also a legal requirement for HID. Without these installed, the kit would be an MOT failure." https://www.autobulbsdirect.co.uk/faqs.html

    Is the activation speed the same in both cars, i.e. are you going fast enough to trigger the system on?

    No sunroof, no A pillar drain tube. Check under the bonnet against the scuttle to see if there's any debris stopping water draining away from the corners. Also check right in the join between the bulkhead and inner wings, especially around any wiring grommets.

    Possibly a blocked windscreen scuttle drain. Do you have a sunroof? Could be a corroded/split A pillar drain tube.

    Perhaps turn off the sensors when not needed? I was surprised they don't go off automatically above a set speed, as they did on my Mercs.

    Do the rear seats also recline when in their rearmost position?

    Remapping will bring the most return for investment.

    I posted this on another thread regarding winter morning starts. My winter routine.. Open car, start engine, switch on heated seats (and now I can also switch on the heated steering wheel 😎) switch on the heated rear screen and door mirrors. Scrape windscreen and side windows clear Get back in and drive away. Car is pushing out warm air within 1 mile, seats are toasty warm... Unless you are parked on private land (driveway) it is an offence to leave a car unattended with the engine running.

    On the standard Lexus offering of speed camera alert one can also add new locations. I only noticed this recently. Once a destination has been set and route calculated an add location button is available to input a newly spotted camera. Not sure if this location is only stored on the car or if it is added to a central data centre.

    How about fitting one of these? Condition the battery at the same time.. https://www.webasto-comfort.com/en-uk/product-overview/product/show/ethermo-top-eco/ Or the more usual petrol version, operable anywhere (outside).. https://www.webasto-comfort.com/en-uk/product-overview/product/show/thermo-top-evo-1/

    So they're expanding, outgrown the current premises you say? Surely they would be moving to or building bigger showrooms nearby to serve this expanded clientele? That said, how often does one visit the dealership? Once a year for servicing? I'd be happy enough to drive the hour.

    My hybrid warms up within a mile, as I posted above
  15. NemesisUK
    My RC300h warms up remarkably quickly! Within 1 mile there is serious warmth coming from the vents. This is even faster than my 5.4ltr V8 could manage. It definitely warms up more quickly when worked (driven) rather than leaving it idling. When the a/c is set on Auto the system will not turn up the fans until there is heat available, so no icy blast. The petrol engine will always run until up to operating temp. It's noticeable in these colder days that the engine will cut in irrespective of traction battery level, just to supply heat to the cabin.

    More specifically your car's dashboard/centre console illuminations. 😎 My RC300h

    Is the engine getting up to operating temperature? If not I would check the coolant thermostat is operating correctly. Sounds like it's stuck open

    Lexus breakdown cover is actually the AA ...
  19. NemesisUK
    Any chance of clarifying this last part?

    One could say that for the vast majority of business? Unfortunately we have no choice ( unless wealthy enough to lodge a letter with Lloyds) but to buy from one of these businesses

    I'm sure they will find a way of clawing back any savings...

    CAR INSURANCE prices could soon be dramatically reduced as insurance companies admit new technology could revolutionise the sector. https://www.express.co.uk/life-style/cars/1205280/car-insurance-uk-prices-technology-insurers

    A very good effort considering the simple RWD of the LFA and the damp conditions.. Pure aural delight

    No need for driving gloves for me, I used my heated steering wheel for the first time this morning... very luxurious 😎
  25. NemesisUK
    Not sure about the red leather driving gloves...
