I reckon the tyres on yours are a bit stickier than mine... Nice colour though.

The main advantage for people and stop start is not these who turn off the system for their own reasons, but for pedestrians and other city/town dwellers whose lives would be greatly improved if all cars had working start/stop systems.

The Honest John website has lots of advice on this sort of thing; a little research and reading should help you work the system to g...
