James bond junior, as ROR pointed out this is a binary number.
So 101010 has a decimal value of 42.
You put each digit with a power of 2 beside it so the above would be:

1x2(5)+0x2(4)+1x2(3)+0x2(2)+1x2(1)+0x2(0)

1x32+0x16+1x8+0x4+1x2+0x1 = 32 + 0 + 8 + 0 + 2 + 0

= 42

And that concludes the picture of the posters mileage.

Was car browsing with one of the lads earlier, I see your Touran is still for sale!

You must be mixing me up with someone else. I never had a Touran.

Proper machine that but massively over styled (both inside and out) in my opinion.

Too be honest I am fairly disappointed with it.
It's a facelift model new for 2017 but offers nothing worth talking about over the older one.
I have a 2013 F sport and straight away the analogue clocks are a disappointment as well as several other missing features that I have.
Also seemed a bit more sluggish than mine which it shouldn't.
Is it lower emissions I wonder and if so would that effect power?
If I was buying and got rid of mine for this I'd be kicking myself

That's not what the dealer that loaned it to you were hoping for

The €350 he is getting off me tomorrow will just have to soften the blow :pac:

They still have a very dated interior compared to the German rivals, for example the interior door locks which are the same in my 05 can be seen on the really old Corollas! The F sport is a nice car and is fairly expensive over the SE...

D'ya think?
I love the interior of my own one.
It's different.
You're kind of closed in,which some people may not like but I like it.
It's like you are in your own little pod.
Feels snug.

Was in a taxi one recently and loved it. That closed in feeling reminds me a lot of the orientation of all controls to the driver in the E46 driving position.

Its just too busy and over designed, nothing flows with each other in the interior

Meh I like it. It's different to the typical dullness of the BMW/Audi crew....

blade1

Well, seems like it divides opinions.
Can we agree it's not bland??:pac:

JoeA3

It’s not bland. But it is a total mess inside and out. And as someone else said, there are things in that interior that you’d have seen in a mid-‘90’s Avensis, door handles, locks, lighting switchgear, etc. I just can’t abide Jap interiors.

What car/cars would you rate as having nice interiors?
I liked my A4 b6 but it's dated now and I think newer Audi's went down hill from then imo.
A couple of times I looked into buying BMW but the dash put me right off.
I have driven Skoda,Merc E class' at work and I'd prefer my is any day although the lastest mercs do look nice inside.

My brother bought an Optima recently,loving looking,sit in and the dash is like something from 20 years ago.
Jags? Too old manish!!!

Anyone else I haven't insulted???:pac:
Oh yeah... Alfa's!!!
Still pretty cool imo.

Can't say I agree. What do you mean by locks?

Also light/indicator/wiper stalks completely different to the usual Toyota ones like the older IS had.

The interior door pull / release handles on the door cards and the lock button next to it. Very 1990s Toyota imo.

Just not for me but each to their own.

It just seems to be the way the majority of vag fanboi's are. No matter how good the alternative product is they can't see past the badge and tend to nitpick and sneer at alternatives, especially from asian manufacturers even if a lot of what they are moaning about doesn't add up in reality.

Thing is I don't find it busy at all.
It's got the same stuff as most cars.
Im wondering is it the air vents making it seem like it's busier than usual?
Like if they had flaps that closed would it seem less busy?

Oh and my last 4 cars were vag,Jap,vag, Jap so I am not biased.
I'll sit in a car and if I like it I'll buy it no matter what it is.

Lexus looks a nice place to be, I can't see the problem with it?

Yet you sneer and nitpick at other non Asian brands...

Do as I say, not as I do?

Nonsense.
I stated my opinion and backed it up with my valid reasons. You have a different opinion. Good for you.
