Re: Motor Week '91 SVX Road Test Video
I don't remember seeing it before, but I don't remember much about yesterday either.
 That is a better than average video about the SVX.

Re: Motor Week '91 SVX Road Test Video
They put that people asking what is it as a negative thing?? How about not... I would have put auto selt belts, and no pass airbag. Along with the fact that gery was the only color interior. I think the tan interior is much better than the grey. Great video though.

Re: Motor Week '91 SVX Road Test Video
The bit that got me was the "over-engineered" tilt/telescope wheel. The third lever is an exit release! It's likely that much of this car would escape many people, though - how many with half an hour with this car would find the wiper park switch without the book in the glovebox?

Re: Motor Week '91 SVX Road Test Video
"gimmicky button on the shifter that allows the driver to shift manually"
 So they're the ones who caused that rumor.....

Re: Motor Week '91 SVX Road Test Video
Watched it yesterday. Surprising to hear something good about the car. You'll have to forgive me, I'm in a house full of people who "don't understand why I would ever want to drive a 16 year old car with so many problems."

Re: Motor Week '91 SVX Road Test Video
Im sure thats what he means. As the wipers do sorta park when they are in summer mode.
hijack Speaking of wipers, is the first intermittent setting supposed to go to continues mode when you get to like 15mph? I find that very annoying... /hijack

Re: Motor Week '91 SVX Road Test Video
They don't like it because people ask too many questions?
I love it when people have no clue as to what kind of car I have.
