    Looks like a taxi and is never clean.. for long! Only joking Seriously, black cars always look awesome and imposing. I gave up on my black AMG as it just was heartbreaking to see the dust settle within hours..

    Marin Bear Valley SE, fantastic bike saw me up and down some great rides

    In the hybrid one would turn off the car in a gear other than Park if one wanted to continue listening to the radio etc.. as the system doesn't shut down but goes into Accessory mode.

    If it were my choice, either of the Skylines ...

    Different car, I was up in Milton Keynes back then.

    Mine wasn't OEM but converted by myself and brother-in-laws. Very fast but also somewhat fragile, had it in bits by the roadside on more than one occasion!

    The Chevette HSR was a mental car, highly tuned 2.6ltr and very low geared. Would rip to 100mph in a blink of the eye...

    The Black Merc is the CLS55 AMG, an amazing 4 seater coupe, Clarkson termed as a thug in a silk dressing gown... Supercharged 5.4ltr monster that wafted along until prodded when all hell broke loose, loved it.

    Not too many in my 40+ years of driving..

    One of these?

    Glad they're working for you! In all this damp salty mucky road conditions my car is staying so much cleaner than any previous car I've had, so I'm very happy with the package.

    I just took out a 3 year service plan on the RC. No admin fee charged...

    The low charge rate specified may be to take into account not everyone would be using a well regulated charger? The ripple current from a poorly designed charger may well cause issues?

    I have used the CTEK for a number of years on my CLS55. Mercedes sell the CTEK rebadged as their own charger. Perfectly safe to charge the battery without disconnection. I also had the convenience connector in the boot. Always best to quote the manufacturer's advice/instruction. The reader can then make up their own mind.

    My owner's handbook states a slow charge at 5A or less. One must disconnect the earth cable before charging the battery in situ ...

    It's been all over the motoring press for ages now. Not only that 'luxury' tax but also big changes in annual VED rates. The £40k limit is list price plus options, not any discounted price you might negotiate...

    Don't know if it's the same as the system in new Audi models. If parking brake set to automatic it will set on each time the car comes to a halt. No need to hold the car with the foot brake when stopped in traffic, at lights ect..

    Wouldn't the battery require such a cable for receiving charge from the traction battery?

    Before settling on a company to supply and fit your tracker check with Direct Line that they are acceptable to them. I had to have a tracker fitted in my CLS55 AMG, Direct Line were quite prescriptive regarding the one fitted... That said have you approached Lexus? Their dealerships can supply and fit and I think would be best experienced in how to do so without causing possible issues later.

    The one in the RC is the same size as 'normal' car batteries, certainly much bigger than the Aux battery in the CLS55..

    I thought with the hybrid system on all electrical demand was met by the traction battery? The 12 volt battery only supplies the entry system and the initial startup of the control modules. Having the seat heaters and such on would only drain the 12v battery if the car was on accessory mode?

    Don't do it, it's illegal to display DVD or video that the driver can see whilst the car is moving.

    My sympathies regards your health issues, I trust you are on the road to recovery. Your responses to newbies is rather formulaic though... Thanks for the contact information, hopefully someone will respond..

    I think Lexus have it well sorted regarding the adjustment of the rain and light sensors available to the driver "on the fly" so to speak. In the Mercedes one has to do this via the workshop diagnostic computer. Hardly convenient.... Well done Lexus 🤗

    May I make an additional request regarding thread formatting? Would others find it useful to have the thread originator identified in subsequent posts made by him/her within the thread? It would make it much easier to see who's thread it is without having to scroll to the top of the thread....
