If you look at how far up and along the roof the windscreens on most cars go now , they would look silly and have no purpose as eye level would be about half way down the glass .

You do realise that he was on a German Autobahn? Speed is derestricted on many sections. Also he did not tailgate slower cars but held station well back and waited for them to pull over, which they always do on Autobahns. So what point are you making? |

I compensate by owning a Smart car, it's fun fun fun. You have to drive it, not sit back and let the car take the strain.

Much as I am disappointed that many of the systems don't work as well or aren't as accessible / functional as the previous generation, I'm finding that the air of relaxation it generates is its key benefit.

I prefer plug-in hybrid (if it actually worked in my house) having invested in solar PV I produce excess energy for at least a quarter of the year that could go into the car for the short journeys to won and back. I am also a Octopus Energy customer on the Agile tariff, I can charge my car and home battery during the early hours at less than 4p / KWH. EV cars are a big step change and transform how we think about electricity consumption. I doubt mild hybrids will be avilable five years from now, they are just an intermediary solution. Paul

Not sure if anyone has mentioned this before but here goes.
On my previous E classes:- 1. when you adjusted the seat or mirror position and the saved it to a memory position the car gave a beep to confirm that it had been saved. 2. The fuel display had 3 setting, Average, Instantaneous and Current journey. You can guess which one I used the most.
