Its such a cliche because its true. We have a couple of small windows of time to get trades in to look at the new house as it's a holiday let. We move-in early August and I was really wanting to get a roofer lined up to get a new roof on the cottage and ideally the barn we're going to renovate. But ...

Hipster doofus 8-) Spotted but no pics as the owner is wanting to keep it quiet... A local garage has a Delorean in for some work. I've never seen one up close so didn't realise just how wide and how low it is. Still looks like nothing else out there and those doors opening are still as special and ...

I bumped into an old mate recently whose marriage ended and has been hitting up Tinder. He’s having a great time with it. He basically described it as hook up app. Swipes till he finds someone that’s a match. They go on a date which is usually drinks in a bar, coffees etc, then second date is in on...

I know grey is the colour of choice for lots of exterior stuff now so that makes sense. Light grey it is!

The black really hides all of the "interesting" design choices which get highlighted with a light colour. Looks surprisingly good with the sliver alloys too. All of the recent M cars I've driven seem to have a really good balance of power v traction for their respective size & weights,...

So, important question of the day..... what's the "new" magnolia paint for when you're putting your house up for sale? 7 hours of painting fences, sheds, planters etc yesterday. So glad I got a spray gun, can't imagine how long that lot would have taken doing it with a brush. Driveway has ...

This first one is effectively a dev kit. I've no idea where they got those projected figures from - for an entirely new platform at that price, in that format, those sound extremely optimistic. There are some cool ideas being developed, but they really need to get the thing released around the world...

I can't imagine the anxiety of taking the ID Buzz on the sort of typical camping trip in Scotland we'd have done with the old camper van.

Looks nice though.

Floors are being sanded today and we're trapped upstairs by sheets of plastic - it looks like house in ET when the government swoops down. Of course poor planning and preparation is to blame. Child #2 is wondering if she could get food delivered and they'd be happy to try throwing it up through an o...

Are sellers genuinely just letting the eBay AI bot write listings when they're trying to sell a fvcking Ferrari??? This 2002 Ferrari 360 MODENA Coupe is a stunning example of Italian engineering at its finest. With a manual transmission and only 24000 miles on the clock, this beauty is sure to turn ...

For a second, I didn't even question the legitimacy of this thread based on its title.

Yup, checks out for this place.

I hear lore nerds aren't happy.... Fvck those guys. They're never happy. It's a TV show. Get over it. I think you also made the point that it's so difficult these days to read impartial, objective reviews to anything as so many sites seem to have an agenda of one sort or another. Its also funny (an...

One thing's for sure, we need change and hopefully this will be another nail in the coffin of the cult-like following the SNP seems to have.

As for the alternatives....

That colour is properly stunning. It still reminds me of the 458 which is no bad thing. Really interesting to hear your impressions, so looks like we have a winner then?

That's a lot of car for the money and sounds like a pretty good buy with the initial depreciation hit already being taken.

Nice one! Has he started driving yet? Not 17 yet (3 months) but i've been keeping an eye out for anything good that turned up. Slightly early but it's a good car (hopefully) with super low miles. Definitely a good idea to do it that way and now he's ready to go. Have you got lessons booked yet?

Have you seen that Chris Harris has started a series on YouTube on his newly purchased M5 touring? It seems a bit of a money pit so far though! Yes, I saw that. His logic seems to be that he buys it for 25K or so, spends 10K on it... If he owns it outright in a couple of years, that's about the sam...

Yeah, I'm sure I can have a word with Mrs Mike to get her to up her game to reach that 100% mark. Data is anonymised which is good and from what I've read isn't sold or shared outwith BMW, but I'd be amazed if there's any way to opt out of this stuff these days given the software in cars and integra...

Yes, forgot to mention that "lady owner" thing, crazy that's still a thing these days, let alone in a listing like this for a V10 estate.

I've had an alert set for "M5 Touring" for a while but they do seem to be few and far between these days and given their age and things that can go wrong, anything without a massive pile of receipts and all the main things being would have to be very keenly priced. https://www.ebay.co.uk/i...

I do the same, I just chuck my Apple Watch on the charging stand at night. The Ultra version has a much better battery life and easily do a couple of days, but like the normal one, you can easily hammer the battery depending on how you use it. I switched to a Garmin for my running - its incredible t...
