Small devices like monitors and docking stations use very, very little electric and you'll probably find that the time/kit investment to turn these on/off reliably outweighs any savings on electric. For PC's, configure sleep settings and WOL for the morning. Bigger issue we used to have was staff le...

Yeah they've put me on emergency tax as they think I've got 2 jobs, so I had to call them up. Spent 15 mins going through all the preamble, questions and just when I was going into the queue I got "Sorry. We're having technical issues, call back later" THEN TELL ME THAT AT THE START! :evil...

What's the reason for being strapped to the dashboard?

Oof - via Whatsapp...the old fashioned dumping via SMS is no more.

Time for a new car AND a new woman.

Giulia QV, in proper Tri-Rosso Red. I think it's the first I've ever seen on the move, only ever seen parked up out and about. They look fantastic on the move, and sound good too. Amazing how many RS/M/AMG cars you see relative to these, certainly where I am. I keep meaning to arrange a test drive b...

Well dealer cars are now at £64k so you'd easily get private examples under £60k on the basis the p/x is mid-50's and no doubt they'll keep sliding.

I'm still on the Honda-E forum, and even the fanboys ("I only had to stop 4 times to get to my destination! It's part of the adventure!") are warning people about some of the expensive faults that can occur and the warranty being essential (repeated door handle failures (£1k at dealer), s...

I'd still be concerned about the deprecaition on the Buzz. Cheapest is £45k at the moment at 18 months old. Like the conversation before there still a massive :?: for me about costs to repair some of these cars, so I'd be really interested to see what the Buzz would retail for after 3 years once the...

The irony of how long it took for someone to suggest modifying the car to fix the problem...on a car forum

102 Emira's on AT now....so you're not lost for choice that's for sure.

I'd have to *really* love a car to start scraping away my drive to make it fit !

£250 sounds like a good deal, got to be at least cost neutral after selling the 2bular. Deffo. The unit had never been on a car. Worth retrying the 2bular after 'fixing' it? Just in case? I know they're not cheap - but I had my eyes opened to switchable exhausts on the Alfa. Problem is that quiets ...

Sorry Duncs - it isn’t curved but I don’t really know what to call it. The estate agent referred to it as a breezeway 😂 Matt, I haven’t won the lottery and I’m not terminally ill if that’s what you were referring to. The Buzz was a bit of a folly; my wife liked the look of it but I expected I’d fin...

Something is afoot, he's spending a fair bit recently.

Jobsonberg?

I really like the Buzz, and I've started to see a few about - especially in the commercial van style. I thought they were bringing a bigger battery version out? My boiler service bloke wanted one, as he's a big VW fan, but said the range wasn't enough for his daily duties. He said it didn't fit unde...

Brilliant. Also, Nath needs better passwords.

I don’t want to type a TL:DR on my phone but we test drove a VW ID Buzz today and it was fabulous. But it doesn’t fit under the arch to our drive. That’s the very nice salesman doing the reflectoporn. I’ll write a bit more about it when I’m less cream-crackered. But I loved it. I'm confused - isn't...

One make forums are either "its the worst thing ever and will explode" or "It's the greatest car to ever grace the earth" and nothing inbetween.

But great news on the Emira

Has he handed you an automotive restraining order already? Why have you taken a picture from the next street over

Briefly peaked at 99 Emira's for sale on AT over the weekend apparently. :shock: Also, quote from SELOC "Out with a friend who buys and sells to the trade, he just bought a 22 Emira with just under 8k miles for 53500. So potentially under £50k by summer for sure." Jobbo like I said, rock s...

Seems pointless. If I was going to nick it, I'd just drive down and either find it parked on the drive, as a postcode is a fairly small geographic area, or I'd say "OK, I'm here" and get you to send the house number and not turn up anyway.
