Why?

Torque can log to a file so you can review maximums later.

https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00NL7GTXG/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Uses spring clamp arms, I may cut them off and fit some magnets instead. The cable poking out is plugged into the USB socket and the cover (almost) closes on it. All in all, I think it looks quite neat.

You should have tried Milton Keynes in general https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@52.023083,-0.7181831,14.11z (every major intersection there is a roundabout) Or this bit of fun in Hemel Hempstead https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@51.7462896,-0.4735536,18.76z :)

You have it on the right side, we have it on the right side [:p]

None! I'm British [driving] ( <- has the gear stick on the correct side)

I'm looking at slim extension cables so I can close the cover and tuck the BT module somewhere under the dash.

What about cylinders 5 & 6?

Thanks :) It's behind the equivalent panel on RHD vehicles as well.

Is there one? Does anyone know where it is? :)

Faulty battery now replaced and the car is home. When I set off towards the dealer, the ASS indicator light next to the switch by the gearstick was flashing orange so I thought it was faulted. Then I pulled up at the roundabout, saw the green A on my dash and thought "oh crap"; it had decided...

And after 275 miles, my battery was dead this morning :( RAC came within 30 minutes and measured a CCA capacity of 83. Jump started the car and got me to the dealers. The ASS wasn't working yesterday which apparently was a warning sign. Of course as I was driving to the dealers, ASS decided...

Kia UK will give 7 days insurance if you want it, but you can insure a car in about 15 minutes in the UK online or over the phone. The dealer sorts out the registration and road tax as part of the PDI so the effort on my part is minimal.

Kia are deliberately restricting the supply of this car, so the likelihood of second hand ones is going to be thin (you're not having mine!).

Those are the reg plates for my car. In the UK, the car has to be fully registered, taxed and insured before it can be driven off the dealers property. The first year road tax (?1200 natch) is included in the sale price.
