Does a bear shit in the woods
Councils use independent contractors for most things such as road works. It's just another area where money is pissed up the wall.

F40 with the plate F40 ABV - recently sold on collecting cars. Also a new GT3 RS with the plate REV 11T. Both by Parliament Square. I can’t possibly make up my mind if they’re cool or shit. I would have to camp outside Parliament for a few weeks, perhaps with the Palestinian gang, to see if they’re ...

I don't pay much attention to dates either and usually eat out of date things. The only bad one recently was some smoked Tuna. It was out of date and it has such a short shelf life anyway, usually only 2 or 3 days.. It was only 2 days past expiry and expensive so I didn't want to bin it. Didn't tast...

Well that is interesting and worrying. Isn't that essentially what the MGU-H component in F1 power units does? Deemed so expensive and complex that it will be banned from 2026 so that Audi/Porsche can have a hope of developing a competitive engine

Not sure I'd want that in my road car.

Maybe - apparently the hybrid turbo tech is 27kg and the battery pretty much the same again. There is also a normal car battery in the mix which also seems like an odd choice. Given completely free reign I would have ditched the turbo, ditched the motor in the PDK (so there is the possibility of a ...

If it had a full EV capability it would weigh 150kg more rather than just 50kg. I imagine that will happen in due course but this seems the better compromise until they're absolutely forced down that path.

These things are like stranded whale videos. Everytime I see a Cybertruck post on X it’s either broken or stuck

Same situation here https://maps.app.goo.gl/KzthLSDCx7X1hd4n9 A3 is 50 mph in this section, road running parallel is 30. Model 3 will brake to 30 mph. Loads of roads like that on the outskirts of London. The best solution is to just put a blanket 20 mph limit across every road in the country. No con...

That is beyond pathetic. 5 years :roll: I have got some legal problems with the council, don't think it's sensible to share yet but for a council on the brink of bankruptcy I am surprised at the amount of resources they've thrown into this - full on private investigator levels of craziness going on....

Hmm, the one I drove was a 2014 Rex which was the original smallest 60ah battery version. From that experience I can't recommend the Rex simply because the Rex portion of it kept having drivetrain errors which needed to go into BMW for 2 weeks at a time about twice a year. The petrol tank also pisse...

Yep, I double checked that in the listingMaterial information

Construction materials: Brick
Roof: Asphalt

Made in USA alright

At least it's just one hard press of the throttle to turn off the system for the whole journey from what the EVO story says. Not yet another option in yet another sub menu...

What age of car? The 4 speed in the C5 and C6 keeps things interesting by kicking down to 2nd instead of 3rd when you don't expect it, giving unpredictable sideways moments in the wet! Aside from that it spoils the car. When I was selling them, it was 70% manual 30% auto until they brought out the ...

It’s all an attempt to get free labour probably because all the very cheap labour fvcked off during Brexit and there’s a shortage in these “honourable jobs”. Look at how it’s weighed. A whole year of military service vs 24 days of volunteering. Almost every single person will end up picking the latt...

Classic car racing at Brands today had 458s, 997s and same vintage Vantage GT3s racing. But they’re still new I thought. Then I do the maths and realise most of the teenagers spectating weren’t even born when those cars first began racing 😮 I was there yesterday too Mad to think there was a long pe...

I thought k-mags move was even more stupid than Ocon and he got a Penalty. At least Ocon went down the inside
Stewards probably not wanting to give out a ban.

Turbocharged at 102 rpm. I wonder if the lag can be measured in minutes, and how may PSI that can generate.

Is one of the US interviewers called Dick Burns or did I mishear?

Christ they like to make an event out of it don't they? Am I tuning in to a motor race or a procession of shite anthems and singing?
