    Another way of saying that the Dealer is . .. embarrassed .

    Just behave yourself.... Brother-in-Law has one of those... nudged an Outback Grasshopper...and the front bumper alone was in the THOUSANDS...

    I'm assuming the S stands for sport haven't tried that yet. 😆

    The only problem is they only gave us 1/4 of a tank of fuel. Need to ring up and find out what fuel it is. 😀

    98 RON - The car deserves no less... having said that, B.I.L is up in the Woop-woop and can only get 95 for his (V8) steed, and it runs without complaint. Ok, when he visits the Big Smoke every month he fills up with 98 as/when he can...


    Just been told that 'Jaguar' headlamp assemblies are only supplied as a PAIR. - This also added big $$$ to the repair bill...

    If the other letter on that switch is 'W', then you're looking at 'Summer' and 'Winter' behaviour for the transmission and/OR the brakes. - Father-In-Law has a Ssyang Yong REXTON (Merc engine and I think German AWD transmission) and has a similar S-W rocker switch alongside the gear-shifter.

    On the other hand, if it's simply an on-off button etc, then it will be SPORTS mode, and will co$t you 1 to 2 mpg. in less economy... I understand it tells the g/box to hold only gears for a few hundred extra RPM, and tickles the 'Learning' aspect to pay more attention to YOUR acceleration rates and shifts the ECU's bias towards losing your licence rather than preserving your bank balance...

    EDIT: - Anyway, who's truck has been taken away for surgery ?

    Unfortunately, I'm too far away, or I'd offer to post your bail, and then drive you home in it!
