Would have thought someone of your standing would have a sufficient supply for at least a daily change of Santa hats.:cool::cool:
P.S. Keep it quiet but where did you get them?

Exciting times here. Did the weekly wheel wash after three weeks and as the sun continued to shine and I'd noticed a bottle of RainX I'd bought some while back which I forgotten about (ie put it somewhere where it wouldn't be forgotten), I cleaned the screens of both cars with meths and gave them two coats of RainX on a cloth. I haven't used it for years so no doubt I'll find out soon how effective it is now.
Too much excitement, I've retreated for lunch in case I start thinking about car washing:shock:

Drove it in the dark for the first time since I can’t remember when - and got excited again watching the ILS do it’s dancing! (I need to get out more :()

It is strange that my old MB had the ILS but my new on hasn't :confused: I found that it was a bit prone to getting confused with the reflection from road side signs and on coming traffic though, otherwise very good :)

It was an extra-cost option on mine.

Surprising on a Premium +, mine is only a Premium so that would probably explain it :)
