And don't forget the non-standard grill, which is what's confusing everyone on here.

This becomes a sustained revenue stream for TFL. The income will be embedded in the everyday cost of running London. This means that when everyone changes their old diesel cars then the revenue model will need to be updated to keep the money flowing. It is not sold that way but this is what...

Agreed the link is to promote the sale of safety first aid against acid burns, however I appreciate this thread for bringing safety awareness to the dangers surrounding us. I have not paid too much attention to the dangers of lithium ion batteries so this thread provides good awareness. I don't...

There's a time and place for S/S. Stuck in roadworks where traffic doesn't move for two minutes or stuck in motorway jam where traffic doesn't move for two minutes. Other than that, I always turn it off. I don't like moving one car's length in a traffic queue then engine cuts out, move again...

Wouldn't the new owner need to continue the monthly payments? In other words, if they haven't set up the payment before purchased from Approved Used Dealer would that invalidate it going forward?

Thank you for keeping us updated with your ownership experience. There does seem a lot of praise for Hyundai and Kia. It's good to hear first hand experience of their EV offerings. I think I would be more inclined to go this direction when I eventually bite the EV bullet. They're quite pricey...

Indeed Putin mourns the loss of the USSR and is as old school as they come for dictatorship. He sees NATO as a threat because his view point is that NATO "stole" those ex-Soviet countries. He believes that those countries joined NATO not because they see him as a threat but because they were...

That's an interesting point. The business model for Korean cars are very different from German cars. The German prestige tend to focus on touchy feely quality and to charge a premium for this. Cost cut on quality regards parts and rely heavily on lease deals where people change their cars...

I thought it was an optional extra and perhaps your car has not got that feature. I know I don't have it on mine.

Yes, you clearly have sinned. You don't want to be sticking that on your Mercedes...:p

Welcome to the club. Enjoy the open top driving now we are approaching summer.

3mm is the limit for me to change. My concern is aquaplaning.

The last stretch of A road before he got caught is very dangerous to drive at speed. It's a 60 mph road mostly but I struggle over 40 mph due to bumpy off camber and unsighted bends with high hedges then you approach 30 mph villages at intervals. The mind boggles what sort of speeds he may have...

I always understood that buckled wheels shouldn't be repaired. I had a buckled wheel once and both a wheel specialist and Indy specialist said this should not be repaired but replaced because the heat cycle required to do the repair leaves the wheel with less strength from metal fatigue.

I wonder whether William would have wanted the job at this stage in his life. He may prefer to have this time in his life more focused on his family and after his children have grown up then he would be ready to take up the role.
