If someone asked you how much money would it take to be critiqued by the world, where half of them don’t like the very idea of you anyway, then that number doesn’t exist so it’s certainly not a charmed life at all.

Hey, how many miles between rebuilds on either the Nissan or Lucid lumps? I couldn’t care less, I’m over 640,000 total miles on the 4 of mine and only 1 failed cambelt tensioner pulley causing actual damage. What’s the failure point of an electric motor? It will be years till cost effective motor r...

My colleague cashed out his RR shares at 420p the other day. He bought a month or so before me and made 46k. Then his etherium and made 18k, he bought in the start of 2021. Total made, 64k, not a bad run for about 14k invested in total. He did say he had the fear when he sold it all and I can see th...

100 litres of petrol, fuel tank, pumps and lines etc would be around 125kg, that’s pretty good going and the weight drops as it’s used.

Lots left on IC engines yet.

Those sales figures are genuinely surprising re 911 to Boxster/Cayman ratio. I'd love to be a fly on the wall at these car companies who over the last 5-10 years or so are having to do so much more in the way of software development, UI design and all the security considerations that come with it. ...

Ears always look worse as they seem to bleed really bad.

Hopefully they don’t react badly to normal dog play!

Some of the requirements that the EU are imposing sound absolutely insane to me for this UNECE WP.29. From https://www.carmagazine.co.uk/car-news/motoring-issues/cybersecurity/ "Of course, most cars have multiple users over the course of their life and WP.29 seeks to ensure that there is no po...

Saloons and estates, I’ve a mental barrier of 2 tons.

SUVs shouldn’t be over 2.3 tons.

Hatches under 1.5 tons.

Super minis 1.2 tons.

When cars are above those figures I just think badly designed lard boxes.

Fido Dido sticker in the rear quarter glass and it’s a 90s marvel 😎 If you step out in a Naff Co 54 jacket and Bomber jeans people will genuinely wonder if you are from the past. 40 year old women will swoon.

When I kept having issues on the 500e and the wife’s mk1 Focus I switched to only ever using Halfords pre-mix berry and haven’t cleaned a washer nozzle in over 12 years.

To be fair at least it's only a wrap. That's no more than a days job to pull off, remove the pimp tints, remove wheels, paint callipers silver and stick some OEM wheels on. Then again you might pull off the wrap and find a mess underneath... By the way, have Autotrader removed the feature that comp...
