Yep, every time I stretch halfway across the world to tap the cruise control button - it reminds me I'm driving a British designed car!

Ha ha !

Is it that bad ? Lol

I dont even have to move my hand off the steering wheel to turn on mine

German engineering that ! Lol

I'd take headlines like that with a pinch of salt to be honest as they do the same thing every year! Here's the Met Office's official response:

I agree. I have heard that story so often that I just ignore it. The last time we did have good snow was the one time they didn't forecast it...go figure

hippo you forgot to mention HEATED STEERING WHEEL

Bix · Nov 23, 2012

I can set my cruse control on the wheel. Right there on the bottom right of the wheel. The master switch is a bit far away, but since I don't use it, no problems.

Mine has a BMW engine, BMW electronics, BMW tweaked lighting.

I'd take all these predictions with a large pinch of salt. They can't usually get the next days weather right never mind the next few weeks or months. It all guesswork!

Yeah. I'm going to predict slightly warmer than last year. I've got a 50/50 chance of saying I told you so!

Grrrrrr · Nov 23, 2012

As for cruise control, on a DT that's pretty much when my right-leg goes to sleep!
