Re: EV Thread
Update on our E-Tron just added to the fleet running thread (page 1006 for future reference). Didn't want to post the same thing here also.

Re: Your fleet running reports
Took mrs mik’s E-Tron for a “larger car task” at the weekend. 25 miles from home on an A-Road the car suddenly sang out some loud warning chimes whilst flashing up “Electrical System Fault – Safely stop vehicle!” followed immediately by a 4WD system fault message, and then a warning related to the d...

Enhanced Games
We discussed this topic in relation to Lance Armstrong. Compete using as many performance enhancing drugs as you are happy to take.
Looks like someone has gone and done it.

Re: Motorway Mile Munchers
I had a passenger ride in a 3.0TD one of these with a taxi company last year and it was such a great place to be. Wonderful ride, really smooth gearbox and the dash at night was lovely. I don’t know when they were made till though. There is a burgundy one with cream leather I see regularly and it’s...

Question for Nurburgring experts
https://jacos-paddock.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/NurburgringGP.png When they run races using the full track - combining the new Nurburgring GP circuit & old Nordschleife - why do they bypass the Mercedes Arena and take the short cut between points 1 and 5 above? Combined circuit is obviousl...

Re: Which hoover?
Nice review Mik. What made you decide to pick this one out of the other brands out of interest? https://www.independent.co.uk/extras/indybest/house-garden/vacuum-cleaners/best-robot-vacuum-cleaners-b2349451.html We'd kinda narrowed it down to the Roomba J7+ or this one. The former seems to have str...

Re: The ebay thread
https://www.carandclassic.com/auctions/1991-bmw-e30-325ix-estate-gOpO5n I haven't noticed the "pre-bids" note previously - not sure what the benefit of submitting one would be for the buyer (?). What are pre-bids? A pre-bid means you're able to place a bid before the official start of the...

Re: Decent car YouTubes
I nearly turned that off when they spoke about the 250 being put back into drums. I know fook hall about this specific model, but it smacks of reversing a genuine driving upgrade in the pursuit of originality for a garage queen. Meh.

Re: Which hoover?
Following the impressively middle-aged excitement expressed by a relative recently around the convenience offered by their new robot hoover, we picked up a TP-link (Tapo) RV30 Plus a week or so back. https://mybroadband.co.za/news/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/TP-Link-Headline-Image.jpeg We wanted one ...

I'm sure you don't all need a link, but even though I played most of it at 1.25x speed, and some at 1.5x speed - I still enjoyed the sleuthing.

Re: State of the Roads
Didn't Flewy tell a story about his dad carrying in his car a can of the paint they use to mark up these potholes, and making a point of marking up additional minor road apertures when he came across painted-up sections of road :?: Best tip I've seen is that once there are some potholes marked with...

Re: State of the Roads
Don’t know if it works in scotlandshire though. Good link Harry - I just checked and there are a few issues documented around my locale, and clicking on them reveals a comment that the correct council entity was noted 2mins later - so it does appear to work for us Jocklanders too. I've been using t...
