  1. Confirmators - these look like indicators but they only work at the instant the car makes the turn (or slightly after).

    Infuriators - again these look like indicators but they are only used on straight roads & often motorways for miles and miles.

    Nondicators - only fitted to BMWs these are never used, except to bag a parking space in multi-story car parks.

    Divlights - very similar to fog lights but only used during the hours of daylight.

    Toolights - these are fog lights that can only be used if the head lights are on.

    Dumblights - just like rear fog lights, but once used they cannot be turned off for days, sometimes weeks or months.

    Dicklights - similar to the above, but used in slightly misty conditions in nose-to-tail traffic.

    Unilights - these are like head lights, but fitted to only one side of the vehicle and angled to light up the opposite side of the road.

    Crashdoors - like ordinary car doors but these are thrown open violently (usually outside schools) without warning, to sharpen up the avoidance skills of passing motorists.

    Cyclelights - almost mythical devices rumoured to be seen on older cyclists' machines.

    Lanejamma - this is a vehicle that can never reach the legal speed limit and can only be driven in the centre or outside lane of motorways.

    SCAM!... when I click on the link, this warning comes up - This is a reported phishing website.

    BIN IT! :winky:

  3. The GS has a Thatcham approved alarm so it has to have interior sensors, either microwave or ultrasonic. On the Series II it is in the centre console however the series I alarm isn't factory fitted, it was installed when the vehicle enters the country, so it's not a well integrated.

    Does that mean that on the Mk1, it could be the little "speaker grill" next to the clock?

    I believe that's a temperature sensor for the climate control...???
