MiketheBike Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 sounds nice so...are you, as the driver, able to stand up and check at junctions? I guess as a auto you can just creep forward on the brake? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mk3iain Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 sounds nice so...are you, as the driver, able to stand up and check at junctions? I guess as a auto you can just creep forward on the brake? Do you need to? The drivers position on a 432 is well forward and high with a good all round view. The drivers view around the vehicle is quite good and with decent mirrors there should be no problem driving alone! and I have found it quite easy to stand up and creep the vehicle at junctions. I took my H test in a 432 on the highway with a ex Army instructor, the vehicle was deemed suitable for the test (this by DSA tech department) with the driver alone! Sure its good to have a second pair of eyes especially in traffic to watch out for the rear end etc. But surely we should not have to feel we are being "politicly incorrect" by driving alone! And would the "specialist insurance" companies not insist on an assistant if one were required? Diving behind cover!:police: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might need to see u again soon as that old problem is coming back but I suspect this time its the fan motor..Gona strip off the inside casing and have a shufty over the next couple of days as it should be accesible...failing that new pack :embarrassed: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paulob1 Posted September 2, 2010 Share Posted September 2, 2010 got to add io drive mine with a rear view camera on all the time, makes changing lanes and other such actions much easier...was going to say manoeuvre, but cant spell it, anyway i think it makes them a darn sight safer and easier to drive...especially with the drivers who are in a rush to get by...
