  1. Smyggy is dead - long live Holbeck

  2. I used to drive in Sport mode a lot because I prefer the steering feel. That got me 42 mpg. I've converted to Eco mode and now get 50mpg. it's a bit sluggish when accelerating esp up a hill but otherwise driving gently is better. Wish I could change the steering separately though.
  3. Hi I have an IS300h and have obtained an OE Lexus roof rack for the previous model (2007-2015 IS220/250). It is brand new and unused. The question is will it fit my IS, please?
  4. We could take bets on which happens first. This ^ or hydrogen powered cars This is coming soon as the systems are already in development. We are also developing self-alignment so the car will proition itself accurately over the plate. 3-4 years away...
  5. Yes I do mixed driving and get about 32mpg. This means about 320 miles to the light after which you've got another 30 odd to 0miles on the trip and a further 30 odd miles to nearly empty. On a longer run you'll easily get 400 miles from a tank.
  6. mpg miles gal l cost/l cost/£ 32 15000 469 2128 1.32 2809 38.5 15000 390 1768 1.40 2476 about £300 per year. I concur with Normski2 and have had exactly the same experience and mpg with the two cars. When people say I have to have a diesel because I do XXXX miles per year I do wonder if they've worked it out. The depreciation on a car is going to be of the order of 10x this value...
  7. I have gone from an SE-L to and Advance and I can honestly maange without the seat cooling, seat memory, sunblind and lovely scuff plates but I DO miss that dipping mirror! It was great for getting reall near a kerb without scuffing the alloys...
  8. Could it be a bad earth from the battery? I had to get the earth lead changed on my 2006 IS last year because of this.
  9. Hello are your baransu wheels still available?

  10. Hi Mine is the same too 220D. My VSC light came on laso, 'Check VSC' in the middle of a journey. Turned the car off and on again and never seen it since - car has done 69K on a 06 plate.
  11. I'm afraid this stupid bloody airbag light is a very specific requirement of EuroNCAP. You get 3 extra points for this and as everyone wants 5 star child protection they are starting to have to comply. None of the car manufacturers think it is good. http://www.euroncap.com/cache/file/e73d84b...Version-1.1.pdf clause 6.1.2
