Ha ha it did! My like for it simply comes from a dislike of waste...and burning fuel when stationery is a complete waste! Yes it's a negligible amount...but it's still wasted.

I do get the turbo thing...but modern turbos are, compared to days gone by, such small things with little inertia that they take no time to run down...people that feel the need to sit idling in their modern turbo cars before shutting down make me chuckle LOL Besides which the car's ECU wouldn't...

As I said in my video...this is a very valid point! I'm the opposite, roof open and zero aircon at every opportunity hence me being happy for it to keep cutting out.

Why's that?

So many say this...and I kind of understand it but am happy to just let it get on with doing it's thing. To quote my thumbnail text...why the hate?

Opinions on this stop-start malarky? I quite like it myself...

Kthxbai... :kissingheart:

Exactly this, I've had it on my Nexus for as long as I can remember and use the functionality daily!

They have indeed. I got torn a new one by a CDi Merc today. I was in the wrong gear, should've bought an auto etc. I expect the 440i will feel every bit as quick, and probably a fair bit quicker than my RS when I get a go in it. Mind you, even my Fiesta ST felt faster than the RS LOL

Did I mention I have a Mountune FPM375 mk3 Focus RS coming along as well? If not, I have now. Will be good to get Charlie to overlay his and my curves so we can see back to back exactly what the £1k package would give me. :smile:

The 4 had to be dumbed down a little or else it would tread on the toes of the pukka M4...When I get to drive it I expect it to feel just as you describe...a fast civilised GT that can get a little lairy when it's called for. Darker would have been my choice as well...but they had this one...

I'm going to have a lot of fun comparing my RS against this beast my buddy recently picked up...

Mine's fine, year and a half old now and still goes more than full day with moderate use.

Then we'll put you down at 100%. My f*** ups are when I forget I'm wearing gloves or use the wrong, non-scanned, finger. Android rocks etc. I'm loving Oreo, updated this morning, one tweak has made my day LOL

My 6p works 100% of the time. I genuinely can't remember the last time it didn't read my fingerprint correctly that wasn't a f*** up on my part. In fact I don't think it ever has.

How would doing that stop your phone from being fully charged by the morning using a wireless pad? If anything it's better isn't it? No need to be dragging a lead around when checking or unplugging it if you need an emergency 2am dump. But, you still wake up fully charged. Done. What about...

Your choice, pay for local storage or pay for cloud storage. And this is where Google/Android beat Apple hands down; unlimited cloud storage, for ever and ever, amen.

I had a Nexus 5 for two years and when I finally went to the 6P it was the biggest single thing I missed. I'm still not quite sure why Google dropped it. At the time it did help that the company I work for is involved in the wireless charging industry so I had charging pads everywhere though.

Is it truly mobile if it's physically attached to something via a cable? I think the point of wireless charging is that you have charging pads everywhere so it's always being topped up. In your car, on your desk at work, on the train, in restaurants, wherever you are, you place your phone down...

What remains as a variance is completely and totally down to the woeful value of GBP vs USD. It's UK priced to account for where they think cable will end up, and while it's not too bad right now, it's expected to get a whole lot worse. Did anyone moaning about the price vote to leave in June...

You store photos and videos locally? How quaint!

Not quite, I've had a hard day today, I'd like to have my heart warmed.

I really wish I'd seen the heart warming montage of people talking about the Apple watch. The X looks impressive...but as above, £1k for a phone? Wow.

Exactly! For years you were all saying that a 3.5 in screen was perfect. Bigger wasn't needed. Nope. Not at all. Large screens were just wrong, you needed both hands to use it. One handed operation was the only way. Then... Oh look, a big screen, oooooh, I like...

Badges! That looks like a complete door pillar badge?! That's a rare thing. Most lose the "172" part of it in a gentle breeze.

It was sooo quiet! It does pop and bang a bit on startup though. There's many many ways I could do it...but they all depend on one particular thing which is difficult to quantify right now...and that's exactly what, in 2027, a 10 year old one owner completely 100% standard immaculately...

It is almost ridiculous. Considering how much it can drink the tank is miniscule! Normal driving is fine but on track? I reckon I'll have to fill up after every second session LOL

For the fans of data here's some data...

Not at all! It's my mate's new car, I've taken him to collect it this morning. It's a lovely lovely thing, sounds epic. Makes my four banger sound positively agricultural.
