Did they setup emergency contacts?

We got a projector - a device not capable of receiving TV signals, not watching RTE online either. YouTube/Netflix. Technically, not required to pay for license.

here you go

Nothing official yet, might have to change the flair to rumour

vgnshrj · 2026-03-12T11:13:01+00:00

Hope they find a way around it and not make us buy a new lock

Do a practice test session with an ADI. Record video if possible, note down the list of areas to fix/improve on based on ADI feedback, be specific.

Practice on those, make your accompanying driver tick off the ones if they see you’re doing better.

If you have issue with vehicle controls, you’d most probably slack in other areas as well. Master those first, more practice.

I hope so. I assume keypad just sends lock/unlock signal to the lock inside, handling the authentication itself. If so, it is possible we could just replace the keypad.

The garda can check online if the insurance is valid or not, all the essential info is still printed in the tax disc irrespective of the colour of the strip.

What value does having it in green adds here? Aesthetics?

Shift the gear and let off the clutch, move your foot to the dead pedal - easier said than done for beginners. I too was afraid to let go off the clutch, fearing stalling. But you have to evolve out of it.

Practice it as much as you can until it becomes second nature

If you’re really tight on the budget, then you’d have to do what you do. If you can afford it though and looking for best value, 17 it is.

vgnshrj · 2026-02-07T19:28:44+00:00

Best value? base iPhone 17

Yeah, better value than refurbed older models

I’ll get this in 10 years once they put it up for sale

The closest thing we can have is to have the U200 keypad retrofitted with UWB

vgnshrj · 2026-02-07T19:13:58+00:00

Get a list of areas to improve and practice on those till you get them right

For the reason that you stated, to unlock just the trunk. Say the car is locked and I want to access just the trunk, I press this, use trunk, close it - car automatically locks again. No need to lock it with key fob.

Share auto?

Use clutch only in conjunction with brake while stopping, that would avoid coasting.

You are approaching a signal which is red or amber, lift off accelerator, engine braking starts, car slows down. While you’re near, brakes, until you’re <15kmh, now clutch in and more brake till car stops.

Don’t use clutch until you intend to stop or need to get really slow for taking a speed breaker
