Which one did you go to? When I asked Ross (The salesman I ordered with) @ EH on Cumbernauld road what the EATC option was he said it was something to do with the traction control. So therefore I didnt spec that option as it didnt warrant spec'ing I thought. After finding out this morning it...
Good to hear Mark. Being honest, the brakes were my biggest work for taking the ST on track though I dont know how had Goodwood is on brakes? I know Knockhill has one very big stop where they get punished quite hard.
I agree.
I called my dealer this morning and as expected he knew nowt about this "convenience pack". He's getting back to me at some point today.
My car has a build date of 28th August so looks like October delivery for me.
Not sure what to do tbh. I could easily cancel the current car and re-order later when this becomes available. Though I'm not entirely sure I want all that stuff. The only thing I can see of real benefit is the folding mirrors.
Evans Hallshaw on Cumbernauld road in Glasgow have a demo to have a play with.
Ask for Ross if you go. He encourages you to go for it/give it the beans on the test drive.
Make that 11. Ordered ours tonight after test driving.
The demo was the same colour as your's Mark. Looks bloody awesome in the flesh. I went for blue though lol.
We plan to go and discuss some figures on Sunday with the possibility of putting a deposit down on one of these.
Emma has a few tests to do first though. She's going on Friday (When I'm at work) to test that we can fit the pram in the boot and the wee man and his car seat in the back. If it...
We seen our first ST at the weekend in the ASDA car park. It was orange like yours Mark and it looked superb. I really liked it but Emma loved it.
She wants me to go and have a look at one now lol (though I still prefer the blue).
The only potential negative is not being able to fit a pram in...
I've experienced CC on all of my past cars (That had it fitted) and wife's cars (That had it fitted) with CC definitely drunk more fuel when using CC.
Topgear also mentioned this a number of times when they do their Eco drives.
End of the world? Most definitely not.
400 miles from a tank is easily achievable which would give you just over 33 mpg (Which funilly enough is what we get in our 200) driving normally.
Obviously when "pushing on" it is quick to reduce somewhat.
9mpg is easily achievable on track. ;)
