I love how these look and if they had made a manual box version, I'd already have one. The colour of yours is fantastic too.
Hope you really enjoy this...
I watched that when you posted it and thought it was a really good review, informative and pretty snappy in its presentation so I’m not sure why you have reservations.
I've just watched this and I am enjoying i3 content more than Cayman stuff! (sorry). I like the i3 for it's looks and from your description how it drives, but it couldn't take the place of my 5 pot turbo Volvo as I'd never make it from my East Sussex home to Norwich where my kids live and back...
Well I caught up by binge watching Project Binky and enjoyed it all, now I've seen this (from 57.35) and found they've ruined it...
A MK1 grill on a MK3 what were they thinking????
How have I never seen Project Binky before? I'm a long term Mini fan having owned four of them, two being 1275GTs and then having this come up on my feed
recently
Which made me think I need a Mini in my life again and now seeing the Binky thing above and also loving the Police Squad...
Love Mk2 Clios, both my kids had them to learn in.
That looks very clean apart as you say from the lights, I never discovered a way to keep them clear for more than a year or so and always polished them up before the MOT.
Anyone use Gtechniq W6 on wheels? A mate of mine reckons it's pretty good, I've only ever used C4 Trim restorer by them and that is very good so I wondered.
It does make you wonder at what age cars will start to be binned because the infotainment system has died if for example you can't change the heat settings without it.
I think they look great and have been looking at BEVs in a hot hatch sort of format, but nothing has the range I need or anything close.
Back on topic, I saw this article about safety of touchscreens
https://www.autocar.co.uk/car-news/industry-news/analysis-car-makers-face-screen-test-judge-safety
As above I've read that screens are much cheaper than proper controls. Even if the touch element is reduced, many now seem to me very distracting just because they are there, the new Honda E for a start...
I've also read somewhere that NCAP are going to start rating touchscreens for safety...
I had actual Silvervisions but got rid as they were really dim. Recently got some Halfords ones and surprisingly they are really good!
I only changed from standard as the orange colour was flaking off and I had to fish it out of the lens with double sided tape wrapped around a wire
Anyone else Like TR Hamza? He has mostly VAG cars which I don't have a particular interest in, but I find him quite good to watch for some reason I can't put my finger on...
Just watched the latest instalment and have a question @MarkCup, why do you use left foot braking in a RWD car. I understand that with front wheel drive cars you can get the back out by doing it, but am ignorant about RWD.
