I posted that on 9 Feb. Just booked its second oil change in June. Crikey! Moving house may have cut the mileage I'm doing down a bit but it's increased the Macan's. And that won't do 50mpg; I am not sure it's ever done 30mpg in her hands.

Re: Flightradar24 fans
Something incredibly loud flew over the house yesterday that didn't show up on Flightradar. It was above the clouds so no visual but the only things I've heard that compare were a B-52 or a B-1B. I was down there yesterday and heard something - mid-afternoon ish, perhaps between 3.00 and 4.00pm? Lo...

Re: Today’s want
That's perfect - Morgan could probably get a wooden cover to replace the leather so it looks a bit more tailored to the car.

Re: Today’s want
Is the steering wheel nabbed from something else too ? My first thought was Mustang but it's not the same. It must be unusual these days in not having buttons on the spokes. The gear selector is far too generic. Surely that part can be altered? There are so many other controllers for the ZF 8-sp bo...

Re: Dangerous beers...
To bring a counter-cultural edge to this thread and talk about the most non-dangerous beers, I've spent the last few months trying all the low/no alcohol beers I can find in the main supermarkets and there's been one very, very clear winner, Athletic Brewing Run Wild IPA. It's the first zero alcoho...

We should have made him an honorary member of the forum for appearing more than once at the LJR. Don’t think anyone ever spoke to him though

Do you get a discount on your car insurance if you use the code ‘Peek Freans’?

Re: The House Projects Thread
Yes, we do need to furnish it. It came with 4 shelves and they are already well used, so we need a few more, but it also needs more things to stop it just being space.

Re: The House Projects Thread
We had our first major project done today - the catio. One of the stipulations my wife had was that the cats needed access to outside but securely, so that we don’t lose any more to being hit by cars. https://i.imgur.com/rep51MB.jpeg Black wood to go with the beams. Can’t get away from the fact that...

Re: The Wine Thread
I’ve had a few nice Pouilly Fumees recently. I tend not to drink wine as much these days though; if it’s nice it slips down far too easily and a bottle is gone in no time. If it’s not nice why are you drinking it. But with food (other than curry) it’s usually the right thing to have. On that note, d...

Re: New Merc C63 AMG
Didn’t they announce Tesla style pricing with no discounts or have they backtracked on that too? 😂 Yes - all their dealers are now 'agents' rather than actual sales peeps in their own right, or something like that. So no discounts. See my post above - £3k off an E300e estate despite the 'no discoun...

Re: New Merc C63 AMG
In theory, when they moved to dealers being agents - but that means they might drop the price randomly by £10k I guess :lol: ETA: I did try getting a Carwow quote but they don't have the 6-cylinder E-classes on there for some reason; maybe not actually available yet? Anyway, on an E300e Estate there...

Re: It’s time for another forum cycle/vehicle disagreement
Do you think cyclists would get so pumped if they rode sit up and beg type bikes? The aggro seems to be such a British problem. I mean I'm sure it happens elsewhere to some degree, but by and large in most places I've been cyclists and other road users happily mix. Not specifically about aggro, but...

Re: New Merc C63 AMG
I'm quite tempted by the E53 AMG estate - it might have a straight 6 rather than a V8 but it has over 600bhp and the electric-only range should mean I get decent economy overall. It's bloody expensive though, as all new E-classes are; I'd specced an E450d estate and that came to £87k or so. Buying a...
