i don't wanna get "my rep" in trouble either, but i too have seen the dark silver S...very, very, very cool...17 inch silver wheels, black top w/ sunroof...doors were locked
leather seats looked almost too elegant for what i plan for my "S", but they are really nice - could smell 'em thru the cracked-open sunroof

ah
march is almost here!

You're getting an S delivered to US in March! Are you sure? If so, then fantastic, but I am v jealous as mine won't arrive in Sydney till July

There is, I understand, to be a feature under the bonnet called a 'jump start' point near the air cleaner to which you can attach the positive jump lead.

A few questions:

1/. Thats a serious length of battery cable. Would it not have been simpler to have had a seperate "boot release" cable under the bonnet ?

2/. Can you get the rear seats down from INSIDE the car and manually open the boot ?. This would be the simplist solution and could be a safety issue as well.

3/. Hang on....the boot mechanism is completely electric yes?....In which case when everyones windows go down and sunroof opens on their own.....why dont the doors unlock and the boot pop open as well ?.
