New guy.
« on: January 03, 2012, 09:44:42 PM »
Hi guys and gals,
picked up my 10 plate ss sat, had x2 punto,s in the past, an hgt and a t-jet 120, the wife,s got a twin-air and my dads had x2 500 lounge,s. The ss has leather, sunroof, xenons, interscope, climate and all the ss stuff, very pleased so far but look forward to some dry roads to test handling out. Quite like leaving it in normal mode for a while, get used to it and then all of a sudden switch to sport mode and gassing it to get that rush, never fails to leave me nestleing a semi!

sorry to interrupt this thread but...does everyone drive with the sport button on all the time? I have to turn it off when the wife is in the car  :'(   but we will gloss over that bit.

This might sound a little silly but is it ok to drive with it on all the time?
