As said above Skoda Superb / Octavia will be decent bang for buck I'd imagine. I have a 2015 Focus 1.5 TDI. Being the Titanium X it does have a lot of spec. It's on around 73k, and should be within your budget. No VED to pay, LEZ compliant, and hasn't let me down in over 5 years. Not the...

It is doubtful your current car is about to explode, or require massive repair bills, over the next few years. A 5 year old Focus is hardly past it. Especially at your mileage. So with that, it is obvious you just want a new car for the sake of having a new car. Which is also fine. Rav 4...

I had a Clio 197 F1 Team for a couple years and it was easily the most fun car I've owned. Not fast, but fun. You would struggle to get a good F1 for £5k, but a regular 197, maybe even with the Cup suspension, should be doable. My kids loved that car. And was big enough for carrying the kids...

Ha ha. It sure is. The Focus the wife takes to work, and is also the "cheap run about" The Caravelle is the "Family" motor. The A8 is my motor for going to work. Which involves a few times a month driving the motorway up and down to the airport. This used to be a Clio 197, which was ace...

Indeed. I should have added some extra spec, ha ha. 2015 Ford Focus Titanium X 1.5 TDI 2010 Audi A8 Sport 3.0 TDI 2020 T6.1 VW Caravelle Executive 199 BHP.

To be honest, I ordered it a month or so ago and the estimated delivery date then was mid-March. It has now slipped a month. I was then contacted to say it would be built in 2024 build year spec rather than 2023, and as such my original colour choice was no longer available, so had to change...

I went with 3mm last time. Although Michellin do claim they are good all the way down to the 1.6mm limit. But I did manage to find a set of wheels for sale, with the proper size tyres, where the tyres were almost brand new, and much cheaper than new all in. So stripped the tyres off, and sold...

I much prefer physical personally. I don;t care much for online aspects of games, so I can play the campaign, and resell without too much significant cost. Works well for me.

I haven't tried the version 2 yet. Still working my through a few sets of the 1st generation. But will for sure go for the 2nd gen when I need to.

Looks good. Will watch this for sure.

So, my laptop Wifi m.2 card seems to be pretty terrible. Constantly disconnecting for no reason. Any ideas on what I could replace it with? (I think the original part is an intel AC 9560)

RWD with all season tyres every time. Tyres make more difference than driven wheels in my experience. Today I had the choice of FWD with all seasons, or 4wd with summer tyres. Easy choice. FWD with all season tyres every time. I should really get the winter wheels on the 4wd though.

Yeah, been using that for years. I do like it loads. Looks great and decent durability.

Gonna try this. I had Premium with my phone contract, but recently switched. Really liked premium, but not paying the extorsionate amount it seems to be here now. I use PIA as VPN though. So I guess we will see if that works.

Yeah, I wasn't really planning on putting over the ceramic coatings. More just for the 3rd car really.

Been a while since I've been in here. So here are my current motors.

Fair enough. That'll do, ha ha. Only if it's worth it, wont ruin the ceramic. I have Gyeon on the A8 and G-Techniq on the Caravelle. But the other car I was just using waxes and stuff.

Anybody got any good recommendations for a wax that can be applied with a polisher? Turns out with 2 of my 3 cars being ceramic coated, I don't have much other use for my polisher, ha ha.

Put in an order recently for my first EV. A Mercedes EQB 350 AMG Premium. Hopefully arrives April, but I guess we will see about that. Getting it through a works salary sacrifice scheme, where I did first confirm that it would come out after the salary sacrifice pension is calculated. Meant...
