    The smokers pack is the cigarette lighter itself and upgraded element for the socket if I remember correctly plus the ashtray.

    Luckily I dont smoke. I also mistakenly assumed it was for the ashtray

    Ha ha £50 is only half a tank full of fuel approximately.

    No such thing as a free lunch am afraid.

    Finally, a new reverse traffic detection system called Flank Guard will up the luxury SUVs’ distance sensor count from four to six. These sensors will be able to detect potential side impacts during tight maneuvering, such as in parking garages, near pillars, and other physical obstacles.

    I found this on a RRS review

    360 deg Parking Aid option. You have to have it if you get Park Assist. Standard on FE, so you should have it.

    Cheers Winger, I definatelty have them. Just never come across the terminology before. Usually just says reverse or front parking sensors in the description. Thumbs Up

    I was lucky enough to get a full tank also. I made sure with all the accessories I had purchased and including fitting that I was not overcharged. Mind you they tried to get an extra £1k out of me, but i was like I dont think so!!!

    3 garages who I dealt with in the past had various answers.

    1st refused point blank. No diesel nothing. I walked out only for the manager to email me and apologise when he found out they lost the sale. Said they would rectify it.

    2nd garage said 1/4 tank only.

    3rd garage said the last thing we expect a customer to do, and the last thing the customer wants is to have to shell out (excuse the pun) at the petrol station to fill up with fuel on a £75k car they have driven out the showroom.

    End of the day it works both ways, you keep the customer happy and they will be back for repeat business, just like going to a nice restaurant, you always go back. Laughing
