Re: No F1 thread?

Surely they'll have to get rid of Horner now he's cost them the best designer on the grid.

Can't do that with a cost cap. Unless he suddenly has a desire to start a catering company of course :lol:
I’m quite certain they’ll have ways round it.

Re: Pole/extended hedge trimmers

In my experience you're better off buying one of those transforming ladders with platforms. I tried doing out hedge with and extending trimmer and they are too unwieldy at height. I know use a platform and feel far safer and it's easier to get a decent cut

Re: No F1 thread?

So if the engines are going to be working flat out as generators thereby using more fuel, does that not make the use of a hybrid powertrain pointless?

Re: “Black Edition”

I think Merc are the only one of the main brands where "Black Series" is a technology and performance moniker rather than a trim level. (their Black Trim options is Night Edition) https://www.mercedes-amg.com/en/home/stories/Black-Series-History.html#:~:text=Ralf%20Sporr%20(RS)%3A%20In,cr...

Re: Your fleet running reports

2000 miles in with the 330e and it’s doing exactly what I bought it for, performance of a petrol with economy of a diesel. Average 51mpg since purchase. You can certainly feel the extra weight and in comfort mode it will understeer a bit but sport mode sharpens it all up, a lot more noticeably than ...

Would totally do this, if I had a 3D printer.
Same here but I guess they'll appear on eBay soon enough. In fact they already are!

Re: Decent Recent TV

I binged it at the weekend and agree it's a great watch, really entertaining and well paced. It feels like it gave Guy Ritchie enough space to fill-out the characters and plot lines that wouldn't fit in a 2 hour movie. Just on episode 3, while driving the McLaren " the clutch takes some gettin...

Re: Selling Cars Privately

Slight topic twist, which of the dealer options is best/easiest to deal with? FiL is wanting to sell his car (62 plate Mk6 Golf Match 1.4TSi DSG w/70k miles) as he'll probably have to give up driving due to health issues. Either way it is a second car that spends most days sat unused in front of th...

Re: Your fleet running reports

Just went to the E46 and it's battery is low (currently charging in the house), and it got me thinking. M135i has stop/start. Eventually it'll get to the stage where it's battery will need a charge or a jump - are there any considerations for stop/start cars when it comes to battery packs jump star...
