OV9

I'm a '22 standard range plus mod 3. Pro charging to 100 - Tesla does some sort of calibration thing when you fully charge it - It gives me "what if" range Con charging to 100 - It may or may not shag the battery, and to what degree I have no idea Another complicating thing is I use off pe...

I still have absolutey no idea whether I should fully charge my car or not. The only info Tesla want to give is that you should charge it fully about once a week but what is optimal for daily charging I have no idea. I currently go for 75% most of the time and only run it up to full when I am going ...

Quite disconcerting but there are several reports of it on t'internet and the general consensus seems to be that its nothing to worry about. Anyway, its under warranty so I guess it isn't... Porsche seems, more than any other manufacturer, to have really disquieting tics which are within the range ...

There has been a bit on the forum of late regarding MX5s which has led me to re-evaluate them as an 'evo' car. A friend has one that is about 10 years old and definitely a hoot to barrel around corners in. Perhaps I should take another look?

Great write up of a lovely looking car!

I thought the lineage was from the 90s Vantages carrying V8s to the 'entry level' Vantage in '05 being a V8?

Found at the back of a cupboard. Absolutely no idea when I had a letter in TG mag. Possibly early noughties / late 90s.

That is quite similar to the one I test drove at my stepson's dealership though since that was the end of last summer, it was about £16k. Not a bad price. I really didn't like the colour though; that grey is insipid. Not sure what I'm going to get yet once we've moved house; the budget might be den...

Work up to an app alert about a tyre pressure loss on the tesla this morning. Down to 23psi but kinda driveable (must buy a tyre pump - my old one plugged into the cigarette lighter and there aren't any on a Tesla!). Nail in tyre but apparently Pilot Sport 4s are a bugger to repair as they have vari...

Microwaves make it taste weird. They excite the protons in water. It’s unnatural I tell you, and it causes unpalatable changes in the liquid.

My old XE 3.5L diesel would post 50-55mpg. Still the best wafter I have owned.

The review in this month's evo is pretty gushing. I'm dubious about the new console too but it's something along the lines of improving vision with the ride height drop and having something that can be used in the proper race ones to make the switches more accessible. However it definitely sounds qu...

Your lovely Peerless Assassin coming from Amazon...

Good lord they brought back Gladiators.

It's already terrible

ETA:
Actually I retract that now the womens' round has started

Those front seats have seen some stuff haven't they? Neat and clearly well loved car though.

Genuine or "genuine"?

I've been following this avidly for a few years (bought Nick Wallis's book, listened to the R4 series, even kept up on the enquiry website). It's all endlessly fasincating but I think the big unresolved thing is the degree of liability of Fujitsu. Admittedly, not for this, but in the central issue o...

Small gains re ram and CPU seemed relatively worthwhile + I am doing a locum next Saturday.

Escalation

Mrs Mik's E-Tron has the Matrix LED lights that do the "make black hole around other cars" shizzle. Best headlights on any car I have ever driven. They do occasionally get befuddled though and momentarily light up something (ie another car) that you didn't want lit up - and they are fecki...

In future years we should have a FeCOTY meet to establish a true winner! But I agree with what others say about the fun of reading about the journeys. One of the main reasons I come back to the forum are the buying threads and the posts in fleet running reports. Most of those top placed really contr...
