Merc are also the company that make you pay a large yearly subscription to have the full power motors (that are already installed and working at a lower output) - so a hobbled sound system doesn't sound particularly far fetched. Just like the E90 BMW 325i with the same 3.0 6-cyl engine as the 330i ...

I've mentioned a few times on here about my Audi coasting with the engine off for up to 40 seconds at a time. It seems to be very good for economy. Anyway, I've spotted it a few times recently on non-motorways and that made me appreciate how refined it is - I genuinely didn't notice when rolling whe...

Of course not, you fancy women just as much as the next man.

You need something that reminds you of your E92, not E46

It does look good like that, I agree. It no longer looks like a compact thing like the old M2 though; yours is still a better looking car.

Motorhome finally sold last week. It was a spur of the moment purchase early 2022 after 7 years of touring caravans and although great fun we never used it enough to justify having nearly £50k sat in it. Not sure if it is luck or they are always financially good news but it only depreciated £2k ove...

I've been pretty happy with the Orbis so far. The Sky man who came was quite a network geek and seemed pretty impressed that someone had bought them; they are way too pricey unless you get a big discount (on old stock from Costco, as it turns out - I contacted Netgear to register the warranty and th...

I found the TP-Link 1200mbps homeplugs I had bought about 7 years ago when we moved. I kept them out wondering if they might be useful. Turns out they may be; I have a few things (laptop dock, Synology server) which don't do wifi and there's no mesh node next to my desk. I had a play last night and ...

The whole of that Merc looks like you're seeing it through green glass. Brilliant.

The size isn't the problem as far as I can tell - Imgur has a limit of 10,000 pixels along either side. But there is a cap of 20MB.

Funny, if that was an important or new story you'd expect it to appear in other newspapers not just the Telegraph. Yet it's actually reporting the same thing as this article from the BMJ in February which does not give the impression that AZ are likely to be found at fault: https://www.bmj.com/conte...

Black paint and silver wheels does wonders for the looks. I am sure it's interesting to drive, but I really can't see that it'd be much fun to live with in that state of tune. A standard M2 in black with silver alloys would be plenty.

Have you got an insurance quote? I think with the V8 diesel I’d be willing to run the reliability gauntlet.

I thought that was probably the case. Fine for a hire vehicle though.

I find Imgur the easiest app to use - no need to resize. Just set your photos to hidden.

Oh, and it didn't have electric mirrors so I had to slide across three or four times to adust the passenger side mirror manually. But the lower blind-spot mirrors are massively better than the Citroen's pathetic versions, and the mirrors overall are way better located so passengers don't block your ...

I had to help move my dad down to Hampshire on Friday. After having a Citroen Relay a couple of months ago - https://forums.ov9.co.uk/viewtopic.php?p=202607 - I thought I'd try to find a place which would hire me a Transit to compare.

Did you meet your current partner through dating apps? Yes, on Tinder. I think it’s quite an honest app, or at least it was in 2017 - you both like each other’s photo and short bio enough to allow you to message each other. Basically like real life except widening your social circle. I suspect 7 ye...

Is there any difference at all between Aygo, C1 and 107? All the same car built in the same factory. Something like a Fiat Panda must be worth considering.

Anyway, to contradict everyone else I'd say this is a great opportunity to stay the fcuk away from wasting hours on dating apps and instead to selfishly focus on making your own life as fun, adventurous and brilliant as possible. Dating apps are purgatory and an easy way to waste loads of time and ...
