Imho the best for Taycan UK format is TA17CAN but long gone
I’m in the club who likes a plate referencing the make or model of the car, but it does mean finding a new one every time…
But since your FD plate Frank matches my profession, I’ll look out for it when it goes on sale… but would...
Wait a minute…. Am I not already paying VAT on my electricity, on the car itself, and on all the sh*t I buy for the car including consumables? Oh and needless to say that usually, taking your car to go somewhere because it’s convenient and accessible means you spend money and again… pay more VAT...
I thought the mission E was in flat white! TBH it looks very modern so probably won’t miss the metallic
I remember back in 2007-8 THE one to have on Audis was the Ibis (flat) white, which kicked off the trend of white luxury rides, in Europe at least.
Apart from being more delicate as not the...
The solution to make privacy look good is to add it to the front 🤷🏻♂️
Then it becomes quite cool with black trim. And it gives a bit more… privacy, especially if you’re cruising in a green Porsche!
I’m on OVO as I used to be SSE and they moved me there a few months back. So jumped on Charge Anytime and I find it a much better proposition than 4hrs off peak.
It’s flexible enough so you can always wake up to a full car should you need it. Easy to use and most importantly no impact on house...
You might get away with paintless dent removal and a polish, then the chip could be touched up professionally by building up layers.
To be honest it’s not going to be much - here in the UK it’d be about £150-£200 probably.
A full panel respray would probably be more like £400-500 (as it’s...
My CT4S was supposed to become my main car including commute back in September. Since I don’t even have an allocation, I thought I’d just try the British winter in my GT (on summer PZeros), because last year in the cotswolds it was 10 degrees warm.
That was a great plan. Can’t get out of my...
Wouldn’t one of the big multi-brand dealers like Hallmarque, Imperials etc. snatch it off you instantly? Maybe even paying over the £5k deposit?
Funny how times change as 6 months ago you’d have had a queue of people raising bets on it!
Sorry to hear you’ll be missing out on your car though
Depends on which wax but while it’ll look marginally better on gloss and bead even more, it simply won’t hold for more than 3-6 months depending on how often you wash it.
I had been detailing my cars for 10 years before adding ceramic to one, and I’ll probably carry on doing it.
Few caveats on...
I’ve done my own Getchniq 5 year ceramic treatment on my wife’s car when bought new and it wasn’t very hard providing you can garage the car, add a couple of powerful lights around and have had some experience at detailing before.
I think the biggest difficulty is prepping the paintwork if you...
I wish it was this order confirmation email mate but no, just the SA saying no news, no allocation, and around 6 months still to wait. It’s with Portsmouth to whom I moved my order after Swindon (nearest to me) told me they had 14 customers in the queue in Dec ‘21.
I probably should have gone...
Like many here recently, I too got an email from my SA after over 6 months of total radio silence!
Well, it was a reply to my chaser asking about order status. And it was to say no allocation but he “do(es) believe we’re still on track for Q2 delivery next year” (CT4S ordered wk1 ‘22). But I...
There are LOTS of amazing timepieces I can’t afford so I also started to play with Clockology 🙈 helps me to make sure I get the right one when I’ll be able to 🥶
Heard a couple of stories from guys getting much more aggressive offers from dealers than a few months back as they see the used high end car bubble bursting.
Easy to see why - 90% of them taken on Finance, bonkers rates, fewer people willing to commit to a large purchase…
But market is still...
Got pulled doing 193kph on French motorway (130 limit) years ago so 63 over and only got 3 months suspension (reduced to 2 at the tribunal, where I didn’t bother showing up) and from memory about 600€ fine. I was then more cautious in subsequent years as they could seize the car if caught again...
TBH, I clearly wouldn’t beep / brake test anyone for this, but I would get quite close and flash my light to *very annoying* middle lane hogging drivers.
In Western EU, if you’re not passing anyone, then you should move to the slowest lane. Seems like total common sense to me 🤷🏻♂️
Again, no...
I had my suspicions but this is now obvious - you’re a vampire Frank. Not only you hate pan roofs, but you’re also trying to block out all the windows at your house with ivy 👀
