That's what happens if you don't order Park Distance Control!

Ow, what terrible thing to happen to your 5er M-Sport


I hope our members (and guests for that matter) are not suffering too much as a result of the floods.

Your comment suggests that you've had problems with a car from that particular dealer (I'm guessing it's the Scotthall at Chandlers Ford) - anything those of us from the area need to be aware of?

Its not called global warming any more, changed it to climate change when we had a bad summer. The multi million pound industry will probably come up with something else next year to keep themselves in a job!. Look forward to plenty of multicar/multihome popstars jetting in to a city near you to preach about the damage you are doing to the environment!.

Indeed - when they called it global warming, everybody in the UK thought "excellent, its always cold here, lets emit more pollution and get nice weather". Now they've gone and renamed it climate change, suddenly it is the fault of everybody with a fast car that it rains all the time. NO PEOPLE, it's called England, it always bloody rains here...

On the South Coast I think we say 'NO PEOPLE, it's called Manchester, it always bloody rains there...'
