OV9

Put it on eBay, £1 auction with the reserve at £1000. All the others on there going for more look absolutely terrible so it may do well.

Some of the stories are pretty cool from this. SpaceX paid all employees shares, it has resulted in 4,400 of them becoming millionaires. Lots of blue collar workers like welders included in that.
100 employees had to band together to get a group wealth manager to sort all the money out

The way the bodywork lines are on the i3 they will be forced to make a custom rear door skin, they can’t just stick a normal door like they usually do. Maybe that’s why the E30 is there as it’s the only thing I see in common with that!

BBC live reporter doesn’t appear to know how IPOs work. Anyway retail investors so far have raised $70B, and with whatever the banks have put in that must make Elon a trillionaire on paper.

M3 concept unveiled at Le Mans


I think it looks very good, apart from the stupid screen inside.

These electronical vehicles charge so rapidly one doesn’t even have time to get out and relieve themselves! Maybe this is another reason for the warm feeling in my loins.

I got in a sticky situation today and had to use a non Tesla charger for the first time in 8 years. I knew this BP had one and damn was it expensive

Haven’t HyperCars replaced LMP1? Can’t find much information about it, seems like even live timing is behind a paywall this year
I use a French VPN as it’s free to stream on L’equipe, but usually a few people post the English commentary on Discord.

The other day i came out of the house at 9:30 on a sunday morning to find my wife’s car (parked on the road because we had my old man over the day before) all unlocked with the boot wide open.

Presumably it had been like that all night (and it’s a ...

Is this a Met Police sting website or are they really that easy to get hold of?

Mind you I remember reading that anyone can buy those illegal car relay theft devices for £22,000.

I don’t think being slapped with an extra few years of prison is much of a deterrent when ...

You shouldn’t use them for security, on the local Facebook group a garage got burgled. The thieves just cut the phone line going to the house, totally disabled the cameras. And even then if you do have a secure underground cable a WiFi blocker costs £40 from aliexpress.

Basically you need something ...

Mine give a message when the battery is 20%

Beany is correct however if this is a big main dealer I’d expect them to get their shit together and sort it, otherwise I’m sure an email to someone important would get it done. If it’s a smaller place I’d never use them again.

Save a bit for when the high pressure fuel pump explodes and you’ll be alright

The ones I’ve seen so far have just been like the board from a laptop. Single high performance CPU running the whole show.

It’s the new thing for manufacturers - Tesla, BMW new class, Rimac, they’re combining all modules into a few very high performance ones. On an EV they save some weight and gain range but I’m not sure how good it is for future serviceability. Say your GPS system goes offline, it’s no longer a simple ...

Quite liked this one

Yeah, both come up as “Automotion Factors Ltd” which sounded familiar!

£110 for OEM Brembo stuff (off eBay in the end, cheaper than AutoDoc)


I've had mixed experiences with autodoc. Exceptional range of parts, but usually quite slow to arrive.

By far my fave is Carparts in Motion via ebay:
