Im finding it really difficult to find tyres for the EQV (245/55/17) as anything other that budget brands are on backorder. Camskill are offering both Conti & Bridgestone under "OE Merc". https://www.camskill.co.uk/m54b0s4852p0/Car_Tyres_-_MPV_Tyres_-_People_Carrier_Tyres_-_17_inch_R1...

Not really any of my business, but I'm always quite fascinated at how (relatively) lax many other airline passengers are with their belts, unbuckling as soon as given permission to do so, rebuckling only when instructed by the cabin crew, and when fastened - on...

I was going to highlight that the 7 is out now, but it doesn't appear to be available in S6 size yet click

Hey @IanF , help me understand. I understand that during turbulence the plane could fall and people would be weightless, but in so many of these stories you hear of people hitting the plane roof with force, as if the plane is being 'pulled' down faster than gravity. What gives? I am not a pilot, bu...

I thought you were buying an Emira?

Jobbo is on the lookout for an Alipnemira MX5992.

Anatomy of a Fall (Prime) Very, very confusing. Watched it in two sittings as I fell asleep first time round although that's not the film's fault. The lead is fantastic, carrying the whole film, and the plot leaves you guessing with no obvious outcome. I do hope the portrayal of the functioning of ...

I have discovered that if you put the M135i in to 'TRACTION' mode (a single press of the TC button) it pops and crackles like an absolute motherfucker on the overrun - about as much, if not more than in sport+, but without the firm gearchanges, heavy steering etc. I am absolutely not being a child ...

I now sleep through the night and don’t need the toilet first thing either. Basically back to normal then. CBDFTW.

“….The constant washing of pissy bedsheets is a little inconvenient though”

Car / plane seats are great because they’re designed to be sat in in a fixed position for 3+ hours at a time. You can’t really adjust your position much while driving. Absolutely agree for car seats. Plane seats* often have short seat bases, so airlines can have a smaller pitch between the seat row...
