Anyway that is not my point.
What surprised me is that we are even allow to sit into 2nd hand relatively new top of the range lexus and bmw. Which is something not experienced in other motorshows.
I mean those cars, though used, are meant to be sold as it is and they allow people to sit, touch, play, jump, wrestle in it. Okay, i am exagerating but u get my point.
So us the group of blokes who couldnt afford the 7 series went to try the 7 series. Which made me recall intimate experience with a 7 series a while ago.
The 7 series is a very smart car. So smart that it does little things for you. For example, in a normal car, when u dont use enough force to close the door, u reopen and close it properly again. In a 7 series, the car will sense the the doors are not tight and tighten it for u thru a host of electronic features.
Boot access and closure is a press of button either at the driver seat / at the boot itself or using the remote instead of physically swinging the boot downwards. Parking brake activated by a button beside steering wheel rather than using hand or foot. Perhaps it is called the finger brake in the 7 series.
Activate steering steers half the steering movement at twice the speed n twice the steering direction at half the speed depending on yr speed.
Which makes me think that if u let one who drives a 7 series everyday drive a normal car, how well can the person drive it? He will be looking for the button to disengage the parking brake, triggering the alarm when he wants to close the boot, high beam other people when he wants to get the car moving and probably driving with his doors half closed (if he finally get the car going, that is).
Isn't it brilliant? Now you dun even have to take your hands off the steering wheel while you change gear?
