Re: Today’s want

No more seal or injector issues, insurance can be cheaper for modified cars too, perfect.

Re: Today’s want


"A rare opportunity to experience a W212 as it left the showroom."

Yeah because that was such a rarefied and exclusive experience back in the day. The utter pish some of these dealers talk, it's a fucking 15 year old E-class with a big engine mate, get over yourself.

Re: Bye Bye Rachel Reeves

Seems like a lot of outrage about the mobility scheme, it isnt a charity handing out free cars and they are profit making lease company and not subsidised.

The cheapest large wheelchair vehicle requires a £20,000 deposit and a lease of £300 per month. A lot of families struggle to find the deposit ...

Who was it that was getting rid of their 550i? Replacement?


Ive been without the 550 effectively since he sale was agreed mid sept, really starting to miss going for a drive now as the other cars in the house are white goods.

Just looking at the merc on their site, what a waste its almost like ...

Also find it odd, I remember whenever things got tough or the car was uncompetitive Newey would fly back to the factory and work on the car. I imagine if he's still the same he will be delegating a lot of tasks unless the tech is there now to allow him to do all this remotely.

We’ve seen player managers in football, will he pick himself as a driver and be Strolls teammate? Probably still be quicker.

Re: Today’s want

This got me thinking of the Brera, I remember sitting in a new one at the Dudley dealership. It still looks great and I’d have a Q4 over the pro drive or a similar engined GT, even though both are better drivers cars.

Also has the same £760 road tax :shock:

Im a big fan of the rx8 and Mazdas in general, would be tempted by Ione of these just for the revs and a late R3 as they are slightly less problematic that the others.

I havent really heard all the build up noise, but seems like they are discouraging pension contributions which seems very short sighted.

The only way I can see him winning this one is if he can show that the dealer worked differently with a previous car purchase and set an expectation.

Re: Dan’s car

They did mention the Elise while talking about the Ulitma, which is a bit unfair on the Ulitma based on what ive seen of Dans car.

I think they also mentioned @SSO aston blogs?

Another boring race, first half lap aside.

It was strange when lando asked if he should overtake GR or sit in his drs, both cars were obviously sparking more than normal. Keep things interesting.

A friend with an Impreza reckons that they are either driven by idiots who crash them or people who cherish their pride and joy. The idiots arent spending money on them and declaring it.

Re: Car insurance

I’m looking at insurance for my next car on money supermarket, it quoted me £720.50 per year with quote me happy.

I added an aftermarket exhaust to see how much extra it would cost and the quote with the same insurer came in at £636.

Not sure how heavily modified the car needs to be to get the ...
