Love the car scania - & the John Smiths theme lol.

Just one question that's really been bugging me, am I right in thinking that your BM has an autobox & if so, what is the little pedal (where the clutch pedal would be) for?

Cheers,

TSC.


Foot operated parking brake (handbrake) ! Wink

The release button is to the right of the steering wheel (on my un-molested pictures!)

Fear not, whilst I do admit I've drunk the John Smiths now, you must note that in the picture, the cans sealed and it stays that way until the cars stopped for the night. Wink

I never drink & drive, you spill it!

22 - 27miles per gallon (UK) around town, not bad for a 2.8i 5 Speed Automatic! the Fuel price isn't too clever over here, 92pence GB £ per litre - 85 Litre fuel tank!!!

Its very effiecient on fuel if your light footed, equally, if your heavy footed, it loves to drink the stuff!

As in the week it will barely move this should'nt hopefully be too much of an issue, the trouble is, I'm using any excuse I can think of to go drive it! and that engine sounds so nice when its working.......  Wink

Great car! My girlfriend has one of these (528i) in the 'touring' version.

Leather - wood - & handles brilliantly .....

The kind of car you just want to go drive ....... anywhere . ... Smiley
