A8 and, I think, the Phaeton.

Edit: what about a Phaeton?

Is there a currentish Lexus LS400 equivalent? Or what about an Audi A7?

Edit: they do an S7 diesel. Looks like a four door coupé version of Jobbo's estate.

Currently sat waiting at a garage while they fit a new exhaust. They need to cut more of the pipe than they expected as it is not looking great. Well get it up on a ramp when we're back home to have it gone over properly to see if there's something more that needs doing. Can't remember the last time...

Could you mount them on the desk so that you have a few more options to work with?

Just for clarity, do you deliver?

I delivered a car I built to the south of france once so I guess I do!

That's customer service! (and a holiday?)

Elon will come out in support of them shortly.

I think it is safe to assume we've got an exhaust leak... https://gallery.ov9.co.uk/images/2024/04/07/20240407_210135.md.jpg Exhaust pipe was rusted nearly all the way through, hanging on by a thread. The box was dangling so low it was scraping, so there was nothing for it but to get it off. Car is ...

What about a glazed ring?

A word of warning about them dying in the house. We had one die in a poorly ventilated area and the stench was bad, but the flies were worse. So much worse. Hundreds of fat flies on every window for a couple of weeks. Killed and hoovered, rinse and repeat in the morning. Rinse. And. Repeat.

When leaving the hotel this morning the Galaxy sounded rortier than normal. I think we've got an exhaust leak. Had a good rummage underneath (as best possible in a carpark) and couldn't see anything obvious with regards to the droopy exhaust, so I think it needs to go on a lift to properly see. That...

Galaxy has lost one of the exhaust rubber hanger thingies, which is a tad annoying as we've just arrived in Paris for a week away.

There is also an intermittent vibration that I need to figure out when we're back home.

I've just downloaded ExoDos (for PC). 7000+ DOS games! Having fun with Sierra's Incredible Machine.

As well you should have. It is obviously one of those clown cars with a hole in the floor and singing underneath passing stuff up

@V8Granite you are Ron Swanson. AICMFP.

What utter tosh. If the electric vehicle architecture and infrastructure had benefited from a century's worth of development, it is unlikely that any of that would hold true. People would look at the ICE powered cars with horror. They smell, emit poisonous gases, they're very noisy, and what do you ...

Does not feel like it meets a basic fairness test. Or a human rights test for that matter.

Are the koshings handed out arbitrarily or is there a requirement for malfeasance to have been observed? If you get one koshing does that then give you a grace period before they can have at you again?

Is it a statement or a question?
