Yeah I think most of their stock is ex-lease so they must be making money on bulk buying these as they've clearly invested a lot in customer service, marketing, and delivering a great product. I paid the list price as there is no opportunity to haggle online. After I paid in full, I queried the...

The car arrived Tuesday afternoon and the handover matched the excellent customer service. The Handover Specialist was also the one who gave the car a thorough clean/disinfected it and it was in immaculate condition when it came off the transporter. There were three imperfections on the listing...

I've just ordered a 2018 Octavia from Cazoo for delivery next week. So far, the process has been a breeze (just like the adverts!). Also their customer service has been excellent. I've called them up several times with specific questions, to which they've replied via email by end of day. It's...

I haven't read this whole thread but in short, London is unaffordable. However on your salary, there are lots of studios (maybe even 1 bedrooms) around the £1k mark based around the area you work. This would represent around 40% of your net salary however as you have already pointed out, you...

Are you dating? London is such a diverse city you're bound to meet interesting women. There's also loads of after work activities/clubs you could go to and meet new people - GO Mammoth, your local gym, jazz cafés, workshops/lectures/networking events, salsa dancing, wine tasting, cycling...

That quote in the original post doesn't make sense. If I'm understanding it correctly, the requirements, design, development and testing for a discrete package of work is supposed to finish in a sprint? I can't see how that would work in practice. I've worked on a number of projects where we...

Even if you use Pay As You Go (Oyster or Contactless), you will get capped at the same price as a 7 Day Travelcard for Zones 1-3 (£38). If you have an 18+ Student Oyster card you can save 30%. https://tfl.gov.uk/fares-and-payments/fares?intcmp=1648

Nope, .NET, C#, PowerShell, HTML/JavaScript/CSS.. we're implementing a highly customized version of SharePoint 2013 at the moment :)

SharePoint Developer. I don't like to admit it but I've somehow become one :)

Ha! :D Had a few jobs after uni but none relevant. Cheers - haven't been part of any projects yet though, mostly personal ones for fun!

Don't want to bore everyone so will try and keep this brief! I've got an interview in 3 weeks with an IT company and (without being arrogant) it's more of a "welcome to the company". They've asked for my CV and as mine is 5 years old I've had to re-write everything! It's one page and 400...

Disclaimer: I acknowledge that the Forum Rules state "No promotion of OcUK's competitors" so if this in breach, I apologize and please take appropriate action. At the time of posting, OcUK only sells one universal charger and therefore I consider this company a niche competitor. After having...

That's exactly the point - being a part of a car club as opposed to owning your own car means that there is now a decision to make, "Do I really need a car to make this journey?" I will see how I cope over the next few months and if I save any money in doing so. With regards to servicing - a...

No I don't work for them but I do tend to "up-sell" when I like something ;) I'm aware that this particular sub-forum has a passionate motoring community so zipcar won't cater to the majority. However it works really well for the casual urban driver, or even those that need a cost-effective...

It's not so much about the cars, it's the change in attitude to car ownership in a city with very good public transport. It's about the same price (if not, cheaper) of a traditional rental car with the added benefit that you can hire 24/7 within a small radius. Of course, this is like...

So I lost my zipcar "V plates" just now ;) I had a friend stay over and due to engineering works it would be really difficult for him to get home by public transport. Within 2 minutes, I had a Mk7 Golf booked a 10min walk away. It's a 25mi round trip and Google maps said that would take...

One of the "Six Simple Rules" is No Smoking :D I'm definitely excited to drive the latest A3 next week! Admittedly however, it does seem like they have a deal with VolksWagen because (especially in SW London) it is swamped with Golfs, Polos, Tourans, Transporters... even Up!s. There is the...

I'm surprised there are no threads on this! Is anyone a member of this car club? If so, what is your experience of it thus far? Personally, I think it's a great idea and have just signed up. To cut a long story short, my car was recently written off by a drunk driver. I calculated that it cost...

Thanks for the input so far guys. It's true I have a preference towards VAG but that's only because of familiarity - I am open to any manufacturer so long as it covers my requirements. I spent my afternoon browsing to get a feel of the market and this Audi A3 2.0 TFSI sounds like it's been...

Hi All, Unfortunately on the weekend I was the victim of a drunk driver and my car is a write off. Thankfully my passengers and I only suffered minor head injuries, bruises and tissue damage. I now need some suggestions for a new car! Just a bit of background: Previous was my first car...
