Satis Action

 I'm still enjoying the Vel Satis, still unsure why.  The Mercedes rides better, handles better, sounds far nicer, is considerably faster and uses the same amount of fuel as this, yet the Renault is great.  
Doh!  This error is pretty normal for this car though, it still works fine.  Apart from when it failed to disengage when I drove away once - I think it was because the car didn't full stop though, and it became confused.  Went down the road like a dog dragging it's arse along the ground until I manually released it.  Then there was a cow in the road, having a massive piss.  This was in Guildford, btw.  That was a very odd day.

 I used a soft upholstery brush to clean all the surfaces, they've come up well.  The plastics have a thin layer of latex (presumably to improve the feel of them), but it scratches and muck gets encrusted within, which you can't shift easily.
 Little clock tells time and lets you know when the auto headlights have come on.
 This used to be filthy, now clean.
I've treated it to a new clutch pedal rubber.  £2.50 from eBay.
