Re: Today’s want

Or just do the job properly and get a Turbo. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/256454504073 Coincidentally from the same place I got my Q7. It’s a low-rent operation but the guy was very straight to deal with and I got a full refund when it proved uneconomical for him to replace the cracked rear brake disc...

Re: Decent plain t-shirts

Not recent, but I got a couple of packs of Costco own-label plain white ones years ago and they’ve been good. Nice and long with a slim-ish fit.

Re: Today’s want

I really don’t know. These cars are generally pretty tough. Suspension fault maybe. Engine light should be an MOT fail ? I’m going to have to ask.

Re: FTAO EV owners - possible action required before end of March-24

I can't say I've ever tried it, but can you really re-tax your car when the existing tax hasn't run out ? I'd always rather assumed it needs to be SORNed or already expired or else "computer says no" because it doesn't need taxing. Yes - I followed the above process this morning. Mrs mik'...

There seems to be a whole subculture of jacked up Smarts, they keep cropping up in my feed. I don’t get it. I can’t believe they’re any good off road.

Yay ! Surprisingly difficult isn’t it ? Getting soundly thrashed by some old bloke in a shitty micra who’s been doing stuff like this for decades really opens your eyes to how bad your own driving is.
