    Did see a "Special Edition" caravan on site over the weekend that had 2 Headlights installed behind the front grab handles. They were switched on when I walked past in the evening.

    That made me chuckle... I’ve seen those caravans too, with glow in the dark grab handles. 

     

    WHY? 

     

    Pointless gimmick!

    Lunar Clubman Range have had them for a few years. We have them available on our 2018 model which also has a led on the A frame directed back into the front locker when required. Used ours once when it was useful

    Presumably some sort of fibre optic vision system. I wonder if it provides a view down the sides though?

    No different to any rear-view camera. It's a driving aid and therefore OK. If my rear-view camera is anything to go by, it's not as good as a proper mirror, particularly at night or if the sun is behind you.

    Aargh. Duplicate post due to a hanging page. Who will rid me of this turbulent CAMC server?

    I don't know if this counts or just exposes how behind the times I am. My youngest grandson started high school this month and I was chatting to him about homework the other day. He told me he had some English homework to do and he'd be doing it when he got home as he would do it on the computer.

    I asked him if that meant he'd print it out to hand in. He said no he would email it to his school account and then email it to his teacher from there.🤓

    The new measure App that comes with iOS 12.

    Seems fairly accurate on rectangles,  but only about 97% on linear measures. However, not bad for just using the camera on the phone and certainly OK for a rough approximation. Certainly better than my guess.😂

    That's  ok  by  me  Roger,  BUT  only  if  the  students / pupils  have  to  do  the  research  then  type  the  words  themselves  with  none  of  this  garbage  'Predictive'  nonsense.  I  slip  up  my  self  on  the  odd  occasion embarassed,  but  I  detest  the  Americanisation  of  our  beautiful  language.

    I would like to see an option offered on vans to change the standard tv aerial for a wifi booster.  Just raise the pole from inside the van and bingo
