Re: Your fleet running reports
48k service on the Superb, spark plugs and oil and thorough checkover. Feels nice and fit, ready for big miles over the coming month. Still doesn't excite me in any way, but it looks nice enough, fits loads of kit and returns mid to high 30 or more on anythin over a short run. Still missing estate v...

Re: Teh Spotted Thread
812 Superfast making progress from South Queensferry area in to Barnton. Two letters, two numbers in grey. May have got the model wrong, it was dark and I just don't know Ferarris that well.

Re: No F1 thread?
I have seen no positive comments online regadringthis change. Barcelona is not a great track tbf, they've rarely had anything but a procession, but street tracks tend to be exactly that as well, although Vegas was quite exciting in the end this year, but then even Monaco has hadthe odd decent race. ...

Re: Recommend a car for my FiL
My friend got a quashqai on lease through his work, he didn't really want it, but he needed a car and it was very cheap. It is a 1.3 petrol mild hybrid and it isn't the top model, but one below and has plenty toys. Not heated seats but hey ho. He averages in the 50s for mpg. Obviously it is vile and...

Re: Coincidences
Where is the money for the testing to be found, labs, staff etc? Hiuge fines? Too many Dog "parents" owners who realise they have pets seem better.

Re: Car Insurance (again)
The Golf was recovered a week or so back, sadly only my bobble hat was in it. I got a lovely letter from the storage yard, thinly disguised as if it was an offical police letter, telling me that as the registered owner I should come and collect the Golf and pay storage fees etc. Cue a 45 minute tra...

Re: New car?
First guess got it! Mini Cooper S. 2014 in black. White roof and mirrors. 60 k one owner. Seems to have a decent spec, no idea if it was standard though but has xenons, cruise control. Is 2014 an F56 ? No, the last of the R56 models. We did conisder an F56 S but my wife preferred the shape and size...

Re: Mini Cooper S/Works

Re: Mini Cooper S/Works
Late to the party here, sorry ! I just checked and our S was registered July 2011. It has the N18 so I guess it’s a 2012 “model year” thing rather than 2012 production. The Clubman I had last year had the N14 engine. The N18 is definitely nicer to drive. The headline power isn’t a huge jump but the...
