London is very much swings and roundabouts. There are certainly some aspects that have got worse / to epidemic levels such as phone snatching and car theft (though that's probably peaked and is reducing now). Some areas have got more grotty but some (e.g. Elephant and Castle regeneration) have ...

Yes its an extremely difficult time to sell a property as it has been quite clearly signposted that a dramatic change of some description in the next 6 weeks is possible if not probable. Particularly so in the London market as given where prices sit on the distribution curve, the effect will be most ...

Oddly I've been to fancy hotels where they think this is a clever design feature

Holy moly that's like something out of a horror film. Am I right in saying a man and wife lived in that? I can wrap my head around reclusive loner but not a couple

Sorry guys - I'm going to be boring and not post it on here. Seems incongruous given it is on rightmove, I know, but just prefer not to right at the moment. If any of you are in the market I can of course PM it to you...! No doubt you would be very underwhelmed given the £/sq ft ratio...

After ...

What a pain in the arse it is. Last time was pretty much 8 years ago so I've forgotten the frustration.

I've come to the dawning realisation that we are not like most house buyers. Given all the information available online, we know pretty damn well before we turn up for a viewing if we're going to ...

I wonder if it is UV discolouration but for the area where the sign was. In that case I'm not sure how possible it would be to fix that.

Rear screen off eBay not an option? I'm sure not the cheapest solution but may be by the time you factor in your own sanity!

"Send this to Yianni and Mark McCann" - yeah, that'll do a lot of good when there's a police investigation which led to armed officers seizing a car :lol:

There will be plenty of people who don't get their money back. SOR is a dangerous thing to do as seller; worse, if you're the buyer and ...

Yes what a thing - even Harry looked to be all a bit overwhelmed by it.

Yes good point - I was being naive not thinking all that stuff is marked up over cost.

Interestingly though the cost of the filter is the same as online.

911 is back - clatter seemingly fixed which is nice after listening to that, most times starting it, for over a year.

I asked them to do an oil and filter change whilst it was there which they charged me an extortionate £670 for - if I did elective maintenance like that again I think it would ...

911 is still in with Porsche - into the 3rd week now. I'm assuming the "engine bracket" they replaced has not done the trick.

I'm dealing with other stuff at the moment so happy to let them "throw parts at it" for the time being. They're in a bit of a pickle I think having acknowledged it shouldn ...

Balls. I lost a lost of photos covering a reasonably significant period of time after my phone got stolen a couple of years ago and imgur was a handy backup of a few motoring related ones (or other junk I'd placed on the forum).

Jobbo is there a form you can use to request this or did you send a ...

911 chain tensioners replaced... still rattling... technical ticket raised to Porsche now apparently

So the 911 went in to have a few bits and pieces looked at and an annual oil change done (I don't subscribe to the Porsche's philosophy that 24 months is appropriate for a car with a specific output of >100bhp/l...)

One of the points was the startup clatter - after much prodding by me (initial ...

There’s are lots of 992.2S listed, it’s never been a better time to buy a new/nearly new Porsche.. they are “motivated sellers”

Spot on - I do prefer the 812 but they're not looking like coming down to any sensible price any time soon.

It's got what you need - bucket seats (incredibly rare even in the GTS), Bose, sports exhaust, nice alloys - plus a few things I don't care about which would make it more appealing for resale (sunroof and a few trinkets). I think it's a great spec.

Buying a 2yr older car which doesn't have the ...

I know its 10 months old and delivery mileage but is it really acceptable that a 100k 911 has the same power as my 997.2 from 15 years ago. I would vote no...


I guess that depends on whether you subscribe to the more is better evolution of cars.


You have to compromise on throttle response ...
