Ok, I took delivery of my E220 demo yesterday. It's in a flat Blue colour with grey interior and frankly it doesn't look great. The 17" a/g wheels do lift it a bit though. Luckily I already love the car so it doesn't matter to me.
To the problem: Last night and this morning I had to play 'finger gestures' with other kind motorists who probably thought I was barking mad or taking the wotsit.
You see, the 'follow me home' light feature kicks in when I lock the car and walk away and they very kindly bibbed their horn and did some frantic pointing at my lights. Very nice you may think, but how am I supposed to say 'that's supposed to happen' through hand gestures??? By the time you've finished trying to explain the damned things have gone off leaving both parties a bit embarrassed!
Am I alone here? Any thoughts on how to gesture back without getting abuse back? The thumbs up route didn't work.
HELP!
