Night Train 15th July 2013 11:48 AM

Off for a trip....
 
Well, I'm off for a blast down the M4, M25 & M1 in a couple of hours to pick up the GF from the airport, so if anyone's about, keep your eyes open down the M4 corridor for my trusty steed cruising along :)

Climate control is just so cool (excuse the pun) :)

and, if you allow SWMBO to use the controls, she can have her own little micro-climate going on. Mine, who feels the cold badly often has the seat heating on too whilst I have my side at a significantly cooler temperature. A meteorological "coldfront/hotfront" situation frequently occurs midway between the front seats leading to "occasional thunderstorms, frost later" :ROFL:.

Mine also occurs if SWMBO is in the car but I get that in between the front seats without the climate on!!! :ROFL:

if you need a coffee break near M4 J16 then let me know and I'll go put the kettle on at the workshop! +++

...especially when combined with a solar sunroof in this lovely summer weather. My black s8 reaches the right temperature well within a minute, rather than taking a lot longer. So glad I had this retrofitted (and thanks again to Ian for fitting it for me +++)

I've just taken my S8 to Eastbourne for a few days............... :Confused:

It just sat in the car park as this was in the hotel garden and pretty much at bath temperature!
In fact it's only "outing" was to this rather lovely pub.
