I imagine it's like anything, familiarity breeding contempt. Mines only 40bhp less than the new one and I'd happily have lots more bhp in mine.

Re: Today’s want
No issues with my manual M2 - the driving position seems exactly the same as every other BMW I've owned and the tunnel is no higher than our 320d.
Re: Parking
It's just easier reversing in. I don't get why anyone would choose to go in forward unless the space is in line with the direction you're driving (like at the end) or you need access to the boot.

Re: Today’s want
A mate at work just bought a Jag FPace, he wanted a Velar, but the insurance for the equivalent model (which is presumably basically the same car) was £2500, versus the £650 for the Jag.
Presumably the insurance companies have just seen red for anything with a Range Rover badge.

Re: Tesla Cyberpuke
I got bored after the first 5 minutes. Firstly, I don't care how a Tesla does against a rivian, I want to know how it does against an ICE off road vehicle. And secondly, the initially striking Cybertruck looks are beginning to look very ungainly with familiarity. Particularly when viewed from higher...

Re: HMRC Automated Phone System
When you somehow get through to someone, in my experience, they're usually very helpful/good (and sometimes give you a direct number). But those fucking speaking menu things are an absolute nightmare.

Re: It’s time for another forum cycle/vehicle disagreement
Would you drive that close to a lane marking with another car in an adjacent lane? The answer to whether you think that was a dick move lies in your answer to that question. if you're just going to ignore what we're saying and resort to "what ifs", my answer is - it depends how wide lanes...

Re: It’s time for another forum cycle/vehicle disagreement
Yeah, marking out lanes is a bit daft if the marking don't actually designate where you want people to stay. That. If it's not OK for a bike and a vehicle to simultaneously occupy "their" lanes - then what purpose is it serving? Marking out an area where vehicles aren't supposed to go - w...

Re: EV Thread
Yes, but a 911 has little things like build quality and character, and also isn't sold by a company which is very publicly and loudly headed by a weird little nazi-adjacent freak. So, you know, there's that. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ferdinand_Porsche#/media/File:Bundesarchiv_Bild_183-H06734,_G...

My best mate has just bought a 2020 Model 3 performance. For mid £20k's it's crazy quick really. They've not held their money have they!

Re: Test drive report
It really works better on lighter colours to me - that does look good. Fuck paying £85k - I might be tempted when they are 45-50k though.
