Speed limit indicator, learn to use the speedo and put the cash ........
Col! The speedo doesn't tell you ANYTHING about the limit! Having that information your eyeline might be an aid of which even Rarecolour might approve... :lol:
Don’t be silly Neil, I think power steering is a step too far for Rarecolour! 😂
Ouch, handbag at the ready. You guys ganging up on me now, bloomin bullies. I'm gonna see if Tracky will be on my team, he don't mess about.

Neil, i don't have speed limit indicator on my Turbo, I just check the road signs ;)
(I have it on waze though and have had to report incorrect limits in Wales a lot, my eyes saw the road signs!)

Not sure why you started a discussion on lane change assist as it's not in the OP's spec (and his post does not appear to have been edited).

I agree with you on the heated windscreen but have to admit that my opinion comes from experience with a 2013 Cayenne and the Porsche design may have improved since then.

Take a look at OP’s original post - “lane change assist would be nice - what do people think”
I take this as asking for some views on this but I could be wrong?

Eyeballs work far better than a camera.

Also useful to see in the dark.

Many thanks for the advice - yes it was lane change assist (blind spot monitoring) I was referring to not lane keep assist which is a pain and switched off on my bmw.

I think I will ditch the blank handles, crests in seats and auto dimming mirrors - points made on here are very valid. I will test drive on Saturday and make my decision on 18 way seats and Bose. I really like the look of the 18 ways but they do get a canning on here!! Making me wonder. Got £572 now to spend? How should I spend that money - blacked out rear light bar???

Speed limit indicator is an essential to maintain your license these days. Road speed limits are not always obvious down to terrible signage, especially out in the sticks where the police love to hide.
Doesn't the speed limit indicator work by recognising road signs? If they're not visible to the eye, they won't be visible to the car either.

If you're not overly big, the 18-way seats are incredibly snug and comfortable.

No I'm not big and nice to hear a positive remark about the 18 ways. I can only drive with them and see what me and the misses think.
