Re: New car NLC
Good result on the brakes,I personally couldn't justify £1200 for a brake service and probably worse now that Arnold's absorbed some/most Merc dealerships.
Is that the 6 potters on the front of your one,must be a lot of braking power under foot as not that heavy a car surely....well maybe compared to an Elise!!

Looks great in the pics - looking forward to a shot when I'm next back. If you're offshore just leave the keys somewhere for me 
Re: New car NLC
Liking that Phil, always thought I would have a Boxster if not a Elise/VX220 but now not so sure
What power has is it putting out?

From memory it's 360bhp and 380lbft, I did think about a Boxster S or 911 but wanted something with a more drama, the spec of this car is way higher too

Always fancied this for mine as having to put the handbrake on to operate the roof was a pain.
Never got round to it mind you ...

Re: New car NLC
I don't have to be stopped to operate mine, think its under 5mph. Working off the remote would be good!

Re: New car NLC
If you point the door fob at the IR sensor next to the door lock and hold open or lock button for a few seconds the roof will start to open/close.
You need to be close though and keep you finger on the button until the operation is complete.

Re: New car NLC
Double click both window switches down together for all four windows to open at once, it's all coming back 
Re: New car NLC
Can you remember if your rear windows were always down when the roof was? Would be a lot less windy if they went back up with the front windows.
Will try that trick to see if it brings them up as well as down, cheers again!

Re: New car NLC
I remember being frustrated that you can't get all four windows up when the roof is down.
Never asked the dealer though but tried everything. That wee trick works up the way up too but only when the roof is closed.
