There's your instagram - absolutely fuck all on there on about said porsche and angle grinder. Although im 100% certain that it happened...Not. Its amazing how a simple request to post a picture triggered you on this...Almost as if it didnt happen...

Ok find the black turbo pic too. There is a good lad. Go fetch.

I also said I'm not posting about the incident publicly so no pics of that.

It's ok Dave I'm here making things up.

Telling people to go check your insta then saying it's not there hurts your credibility tbh and you haven't much left to lose.

Pics of turbo. Pics of the touring. Said no pics of incident in the public domain.

What's exceptionally sad is noone appreciated a fucking awesome car.

Embarrassing.

Did he buy that with the proceeds of a crypto investment? If not, Why Not with you advising him?

Brocco himself has a whole fleet of interesting cars thanks to the fortune he's made in crypto. But he won't talk about them. So modest. We need to search the internet and find out for ourselves.

More details please...

It’s quite well known isn’t it; low heat, low power usage lights are popular with weed growers

I passed a recovery truck in Sheffield a few weeks back carrying a Porsche with missing headlights, it looked like they’d been removed with a tin opener

It's like the early 00s all over again in here Happy birthday Broccers!

In other news - Mondeo went in for an inspection today as it's bump-steering like a mofo, and unsurprisingly it turns out one of the shocks is very fucked. Booked in for new shocks/springs/top mounts in a couple of weeks.

It's not been a great week for vehicles to be honest!

Galaxy has a new water pump and a few bits of hose on the back of the engine. Hopefully that means we're done with coolant leaks. They had a good rummage underneath and while things are as you'd expect for 12 years/124k miles nothing is requiring replacement yet. It did just blow a brake bulb though.

Zoe has had a couple of "unexpected end to charging" messages, and not completing the charging. Searching online there is no obvious culprit, and it could be a tired 12v battery (which we didn't have replaced at the last service because it wasn't giving us any grief at the time, and Renault wanted nearly £500), a fault with the wall charger, a faulty PEC module (which may well write the car off) or something else. If it does it again, we'll start with a new 12v battery.

My i3 is really sensitive to millisecond surge or power cuts and has occasionally stopped charging even though it's not affected anything else in the house other than the Virgin TV!

Even the lights don't flicker but I know something has occured as the TV box has rebooted.

I have discovered that if you put the M135i in to 'TRACTION' mode (a single press of the TC button) it pops and crackles like an absolute motherfucker on the overrun - about as much, if not more than in sport+, but without the firm gearchanges, heavy steering etc.

I am absolutely not being a child with this as I pootle around town.

Absolutely not.

I just took an inordinate amount of pleasure from your post old Bean, as I think you’re actually now, most definitely, out of the funk your old company put you in!

Don't forget to get him to fit cruise control before you collect it so it's ready to road trip.
