Re: Your fleet running reports

I know what you mean, they are a nice looking car, I think it's because I've been there and done that more than anything else, would just be same car with a bit of electricity stuck in it and I fancy a change. Been speaking to my friend who has a c350e and he likes it, I didn't know they had airmati...

Re: Your fleet running reports

I still haven't bought a car, I'm useless :lol: Went back to I3's, then confirmed they're still too small, and too electric. So then looked at 225XE's but they're awful looking, but go well and are practical, but I'm not sure I can live with the looks of the thing. So maybe a C350E or 330E, but will...

That's what our Philips started off doing, then they stopped going away.

Re: Your fleet running reports

We have a small issue appearing with the Bentley. We went down to my parents' place yesterday (about an hour & half of motorway) and several times on the way back it lost power for a few seconds before coming back. Not totally died, more like you suddenly took you foot off the throttle. But mas...

Re: New TV Tiime

Our old living room TV was a Philips OLED Ambilight one, the in built speakers were surprisingly good, screen ended up being shite though, it's on its third screen in 2 years now. Moved it to a bedroom and bought an LG OLED for the living room which has been much better, picture is better as well, I...

Re: Car Plans 2024

Still need to sell the XF, it's done less than 3k this year and needs replacing with something smaller as we use the Kuga most of the time.

Still not sure what to get.

Re: EV Thread

I popped in the Fisker dealer in Frankfurt last week and looked at them, seem well built, nice interiors and the paint looked good. They had a couple available for immediate delivery over there as well so they can't be in short supply. Wasn't as nice as the Porsche and Mercedes Oldtimer places I loo...

Re: PSA: FAXE @ LIDL

We got a bottle of tactical nuclear penguin many years ago, it was quite a lot, about75-100 quid I think, and it looked and tasted like volcanic Calpol.

Quadruple IPA.

Nice to try once, but that was enough 😂

Re: Your fleet running reports

Never had a FTP in the XF and it 11 years old now, it's probably been the car that's cost the least in maintenance I've ever owned!

There's a couple of awd GLA's local for 15k ish I might go see as they seem quite decent inside and have a big enough boot.

Re: Your fleet running reports

Sadly, knowing as much as I do about jlr products, I would never but any engine other than the 2.2, as that's the most reliable by far. They're not bad really, pretty old design, other than haldex Puno filters blocking, rear main oil seals leaking and suspension buses wearing, they're pretty good. I...

Re: Your fleet running reports

Haha, I can't think of owt else, I'd rather get a non high up car.

I thought a 330d xdrive touring would be a decent all round car and cover most bases.

I am wrong 😂

Re: CBD oil

I agree with all the non refreshed sleeping people in this thread, an interesting experiment may be required with this CBD stuff.

I hate waking up as I feel worse than when I went to bed most of the time, changing timezones frequently doesn't help I guess though.

Re: Your fleet running reports

I think if I did get one it would have to be a REX, but that won't solve the big ginger dog fitting into the boot issue I think I'd have. I think my biggest issue is now I've no idea what else to look at. I was given a list of it needing to be Automatic, heated steering wheel and front screen, all/f...

Re: Your fleet running reports

I like the idea of an i3 as a runabout but wifey is very attached to her MINI. Got linky to i3 ? http://www.autotrader.co.uk/car-details/202310203195678 That's the one I went to look at, the passenger door has two big compressions in it, and the panels are pressed carbon or plastic so can't be repa...

Re: Your fleet running reports

I3 I found has sold :roll: Will have to have another look to see what's out there, pretty sure that's what I want now. Hadn't sold now apparently, they were updating the advert, off to see it at 11, hopefully it's as clean as it looks, has suite interior pack, storage pack, business nav, aux heatin...

They do look good. But don't bother asking for a drive; even the hard-top version drove like crap :lol: I'm definitely going to try it, why wouldn't I ?? It's called "doing your own research". Back to my fleet, voltage regulator removed yesterday to confirm required part number, it appear...

Re: Your fleet running reports

I still miss my Saab, it was a superb do everything car. I'd like a cabrio one day, they look a great Sunday car for wafting about in on nice days, wouldn't be upset about the handling, as long as it has the power to get past dawdlers, which all the turbo ones should, it would be fine 8-) Off to see...

Re: Have you EV’d?

I have PHEV? And I think will soon also have an EV. I enjoy the quietness of the PHEV, mainly due to the double glazing, makes driving long distances very relaxing, even with the engine on, you can't hear it unless at WOT. The instant torque is handy, the remote start and scheduling of normal set of...
