Yes, the occupant or occupants were okay, so I read. It is most likely the car this thread started with. To be honest, who can really use this?

I notice the OS warning is on, as some owners & one tester have mentioned in another thread

I think to have a look at that thing...

What means the „OS is on“?

I think you are right Heinz, this looks very much to be the car that started off this thread. I was present when it was revealed at the Dutch Morgan dealer.

Overseer warning. Speculate this may be linked to traction control although not implemented on Plus Six.

From the Owner's Manual of the Plus Four - "WARNING The Overseer system is not a driver aid, stability, or traction control system.

The overseer is a safety feature that detects locking of the rear wheels. In such an event the overseer will place the gearbox into neutral. This feature can be deactivated at the driver’s risk if potential rear wheel lock-up is considered acceptable. This is not advisable on public roads under any circumstance."

A Red Overseer warning is a fault. If it is Yellow, that means the user has switched Overseer off.

In what situations can the rear wheels lock. And if OS switches the gearbox to neutral in such a situation, is it protection or does it make the situation even worse?

I think it‘s clear the Louwman plusSix.

When I read the newspaper right the driver put the pedal to metal and was surprised what happened.
May be he has switched OS off for more fun on the cold road.

Bad idea, as we see. In cause this things I think the car switch over from yellow to red.

In cause it must be full knock down and than new build up I think such details doesn‘t matter?
