Ha, I was wondering when we'd next hear from you Spen and here it is. I'll just say that your car stuff here is so other-worldly that I cannot draw any comparison to my cars. The photo's, however, are worthy of a Paul Raymond magazine. (True story, relevant only to aficionado's of English naughty mags ... i.e.. 99% of Englishmen: a guy I met through work in Connecticut is called Paul Raymond ... I was like, "Dude, great name!". He looked perplexed and sheepish, so I realized it was better not to explain it to him.)

On a more serious note, is it accurate to say that the BMW throttle e-pedal works better because the sensor is located on the pedal assembly, as opposed to via cable, and the slop that creates between the physical motion and the signal measurement?

I was in London/Surrey in November, first time in two years, and the extent to which you now HAVE to drive within the speed limit (i.e., cameras everywhere), even on the M4 ... it blew me away. As in, it's finally been done, everyone brought fully to heel. And the arbitrariness of the congestion/"pollution" zone ... people having to sell their special cars based on which street they live on ... I suppose the future is here and it's absolutely 'orrible.

Very glad to hear from you.
John
