Re: Bye bye Starmer



If you’re going to spend 14 years slinging shit at the opposition every chance you get, don’t be surprised if you get it thrown back when positions are reversed.

Same bunch of cnuts in different colours.

Really wouldn’t surprise me in the slightest if Farage was our next pm.

I really should set it up, as a back up, but I still carry my car. I know my daughter has set up her card on her phone, so may get her to assist me.

Re: Taycan test drive report

The Tourismo version look amazing, although I agree the new lights are a little bland. A pal just bought a second hand one, no idea how old, but it looks the volts.

It does look a lot smaller than an S6 Avant though

We took PCP on the Yeti, so just sent off an email asking Alphera what's what. If it nets us a few squids, fair enough.

Re: Should you have to learn to operate a new vehicle?

If selling a car, showing the buyer where lights, wipers nd hazards seems a sensible idea TBH. BUt that would suffice. I agree many drivers seem to struggle with most aspects of driving, and I suspect getting into an EV or somthing similarly techy, I would take a moment to find stuff

I have an official F1 Diary, based on an early 2000s FT Diary that never went out. Bernie used to buy loads and get them all personalised for the movers and shakers in F1, I worked at Letts at the time and he just didn't pay in 2003 or 2004, and they pretty much all got pulped.
