Take it easy Dave

I think my defection has been noted, I didn’t get the migration email....ah well it wasn’t the fastest moving forum anyway

He didn’t ask for Fritz Cola! (I’m not kidding - google!)

My 212 E63 came from Safwat and they got my 230 SL500 chopped in, decent folks

Have a good time all..

It’s the exhaust

Remember, 26 is now vacant ...:(

God I’m slow Richie (not the car though!), yes the i8 is confirmed and 5 months in now....

The Bilt hammer is superb, and smells nice too!

15 miles in reality, in the colder months it was 12-13. My office is 11 miles from home so a charge both ends sees that off( unless I want to play!) With other driving I’m averaging 61.5 mpg since December so can’t complain

Oh and the dihedral doors cause less issues than reported- if you open up both doors in a normal parking space you will still stay inside the white lines...

There’s also an emergency standard opening hinge ( never tried it of course !) Batteries you are right, 8 year warranty but according to what I read they should go 10 years then what happens ( like your iPhone) is that the performance drops, some cells may die and you can replace..... I think a...

The i8 is an absolute revelation IMO, only had it since December but I liked it, then have grown to love it now. OK, not the most practical car, but I’ve a Volvo XC90 for that kind of service. The i8 is drop dead gorgeous, plenty quick enough.. Downsides? Lack of theatre in terms of noise, but...

Sorry wrong word, loosen is what I meant!

I do believe I met the same set of morons heading to Greenfield and back yesterday! Seems that was their only day on the road this year (or ever)- aholes dodging over 3 x roundabout lanes or staying left to go right...blinking heck

Where I live & work we get a lot of sand fall out, the SF works well in softening it off the surface- no it won’t then fall off with the foam, but it has loosened it and it’s visible. So for my situation it works, for others I get that it’s probably a step they don’t need. For the record, I use...

Thanks kindly....

I’m intent on doing the NC500 - well missing out a section I’ve travelled often- next year. The section i’m Missing is the far NE- my sister is in Helmsdale so I’m overnighting there, then heading inland probably up to Bettyhill to continue to the west and down. I’m thinking 5 days at the moment...
