  1. I'd question your first sentence - working for an MSP I get to find out what users really think about their Apple products, and not what they say to their aspirational friends. My company's parent company has connections to Foxconn so we are made to use iPhones for business and there is no way in Hell that the vast majority of us would use them unless we had to or have ones for personal use. Your comment about their marketing though is spot on. If Apple were to put their logo on wee beige jobbies, they would fly off the shelves by the million.
  2. I noticed this week that a most excellent fix has been applied. Previously, it would cut out whenever I approached the local railway station or passed Bretts Transport on the A47 near Guyhirn. Now there is no break up at all. Well done you AAWireless people!
  3. Dreadful tat. Trouble is, their stuff is very successfully marketed to sheep.
  4. My love affair with Betsy's Bridgestones has come to an end. It's almost impossible to get the power down when accelerating off one of those stupidly short slip roads onto the A1 or when trying to beat a Scheissewagen off the line. They have to go.
  5. I'm with you that the rear lights should be on with the front DRLs too. I get very annoyed with fellow motorists who assume that because their front DRLs are on, they are somehow magically visible from the rear too. This is an incredibly badly worded post, but I think you'll get what I'm on about.
  6. That was in daylight, I'll let you know what happens in the dark shortly!
  7. Search results for 'lexus is220d' - How Many Left? Search results for 'lexus is200d' - How Many Left? and Search results for 'lexus is250' - How Many Left?
  8. Betsy's rear lights do not come on when she's unlocked.
  9. I would have thought that used EVs would be flying out of dealerships, what with EVs being the answer to everything and all that.....? https://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&f=23&t=2020026
  10. I'll second that. AAWireless works flawlessly.
  11. Third vote for Speed Camera ahead.
  12. Many thanks for that - I will leave them in the cupboard!
  13. Prompted by the thread highlighting those dastardly ES300h drivers going around at night dazzling on-comers with their bright headlights, I was wondering whether polarised night vision glasses are worth investigation? Here's an example from Amazon (other online retailers are available). I've got a pair of Oakley skiing glasses which I bought back in 2000 lurking in a cupboard - would these work in the same way? I might look a bit of a Berkshire wearing them but if they were to cut down on glare then I'm sure that I could live with that. Over to you, my esteemed online chums - do you have any thoughts?
  14. The company I used to work for has now got a Hydrogen division.
  15. I love Betsy. She does everything I ask of her with aplomb.
  16. I'm surprised their legal team haven't jumped on that!
  17. I may be wrong but doesn't the blue light indicate that the adaptive system is operating (as opposed to switched on and ready). I've never witnessed the system being as bright when in operation as when the main beam is switched on pulling the stalk towards the wheel.
  18. Betsy's in the mid 40's at the moment. I'm sure it could be higher than that but there are Scheissewagens to be had on the A1 between Huntingdon and Peterborough.
  19. I've been flashed once when I've had the adaptive system on. The oncoming driver was lucky that Betsy hadn't got her main beam on, otherwise his retinas would still be burning. The other day we were pootling along an A road behind a white van. For some reason, the adaptive system kicked in and flashed the van. I quickly switched the system off because the van had been displaying some rather odd behaviour in the run up to the incident and I thought discretion was the better part of a good kicking.
