new car

Drop in and dribble on about nothing serious. Seriously a mad place to hang out. Better to avoid it if you're not in the mood!!! If you're determined to be sad, bad, mad & angry then move along!!!

Our Iveco has LDWS (lane departure warning system) which beeps like buggery when we drift over a white line without having an indicator on. Scared the bejesus out of me the first few drives. It can be turned off when the engine is started but Erich doesn’t bother.
Our Kombi has the early edition of the LDWS, either the steering wheel tried to break your wrists is you go off the edge of the bitumen or people blast their horn at you if you cross to the wrong side of the road inadvertently :lol:

Your new Kia & our almost new VW Tiguan must be related.

They're both white.

Well I drove to Adelaide and back, Leslie good idea to turn the lane beep beep off esp when in the city. :lol: :lol: Figured out how to turn the radio on, then een told the screen in front to call Helen, and it did. Cant grasp the cruise thing yet but time will see it beat us :lol: Why don't cars have CD slots any more??? I stayed in eco mode and boy even then its got some grunt when you put your foot down. I thought for a minute that I had one of those hybrid cars, got to the first set of lights and the motor cut off :oops: but as soon as I took my foot off the brake it started and off we went . Air con works well . Now done 112 ks . G has decided he needs something down the street :roll: :roll:
