    Known P-Zero tyre degradation issue

    Is the F-Type a Supercar?

    Here's a good talking point from the pub this weekend.<div><br><div>What makes a car a Supercar? Is it price, performance, design or exclusivity and does the F-Type fit into the Supercar category? Is the V8 a Supercar and maybe the V6 not?</div><div><br></div><div>Over to you.....</div></div>

    How many gearbox configurations?

    I went "playing" in the Yorkshire Dales today to take advantage of a bit of decent November weather and to educate myself on the various gearbox configurations. <br /><br />Here's what I think I've found (340 V6).

    Help please - dimming the touch screen

    I wonder if anyone can check the operation of the rotary dimming knob please (the one by the driver's knee) to see how it works. Here is what I've found.<br /><br />In normal day light, it does nothing.<br />At dusk, or in dull weather with the lights on, it dims the instrumentation lighting...

    Dash cam

    Anyone got any recommendations for one of theses dash cam thingys which record about 15 mins of video in a loop?<br /><br />I'm considering one but I want it to be discrete and to have a reasonable battery life rather than having to use a USB lead up the window.
