    dunno bout jazz's seems a waste of money to get a sport model on a not very sporty car but the premium attached suggests theres more than a body kit involved, I disregarded the rest of what you wrote, theres only so much time in the day.

    So is that you admitting you are wrong that top of the range is not always better?

    Plus, the fact that you said "dunno bout jazz's" suggests that you are unqualified to suggest that there is more than just a bodykit.

    Are you disregarding what I'm saying? You quoted mg's post, so it's unclear. If you are talking about my post, why are you disregarding it? Saying "there's only so much time in the day"? Well, we have another 9 hours in the day, I'm sure you can come up with a reply in that time.

    I stand by what ive said. And also highlight when someone said of x6 thread that i said cheaper is better. Bit of a twist there. But yes a veyron is better than a focus( becuse if that is the criteria for comparison then there will be better still cars than the focus -by your own standards), dunno bout jazz's seems a waste of money to get a sport model on a not very sporty car but the premium attached suggests theres more than a body kit involved, I disregarded the rest of what you wrote, theres only so much time in the day.
    Dutr have you read the thread? Ive been wrong before on this thread and admitted as such.

    I have not read the thread, and not even going to look for it, if it is on the motoring board, or would have attracted my attention at the time it was created.
    As mentioned earlier to you in this thread, it is not up to me as an observer to state one car is better than another just because given a choice it is not what I may have gone for.
    What attracted me to this thread was the query about start stop, I have this on my car and the shortcomings questioned with the heater system is not of an issue, certainley on the last 3 cars I have owned the cockpit is insulated and climate controlled. And it all works very well along with all the other technofest features.

    where you getting that from?

    absolutely, thats why I said it. I. Dont. Know. About. Honda. Jazz's.
    Think thats quite clear. Now that said the increased premium SUGGESTS there is more to it. Why do I have to repeat things?

    Are you disregarding what I'm saying? yes im disregarding the stuff you put about ibizias(I have since read it) but I dont know how the distance of availible cars from you makes them better or worse You quoted mg's post, so it's unclear. If you are talking about my post, why are you disregarding it? Saying "there's only so much time in the day"? I got bored reading it, there are things that I preferred doing so I did them rather than read the rest of your post. However Ive now read it. It lived up to expectations Well, we have another 9 hours in the day, I'm sure you can come up with a reply in that timea reply doesnt mean Ive read your posts, just that I have something to say.
    You appear to be starting to struggle, I hope the above helps.

    The thread I refer to is this one.
    Everything else you wrote is very nice but a little extraneous

    Yes, thats my experience / understanding of it too - none of the auxiliary functions of the car are affected by its operation.

    Whats not to like?

    Fear of the unknown I suppose:o Just don't like the idea of not being in control.
    Stopped smoking 27/12/2007, but could start again at any time :eek:
