Not sure if it's the same as older gens, but in the E8x/E9x era, electric seats sat a good amount higher at their lowest than the manual seats. If you aren't regularly changing driver, the manual seats in that gen are seen as being better.

No, standing charge is the same, just when you see a 30% drop in the variable costs, it results in an overall ~25% drop due to the standing charge taking up a decent chunk of the total cost

Be careful with CamelCamelCamel, I remember reading a while back that for them to keep access to the API, Amazon forced them to remove prices from key discount periods, so it's not entirely reliable that you will be getting the best price.

Yep, ordered plenty of times. Usually use the safe order option as it's saved my bacon a couple of times. Delivery is 1 week+ though usually, so best for preventative stuff.

Good stuff, had these fitted to my ND and they were great.

Great list, thanks for that. I had all the individual bushes etc listed out, didn't know there were kits for it. Also kinda regret not grabbing the B12 kit over Christmas when it was down to £350 at one point.. I need to refresh my rear subframe at some point as it's had a bit of a hard life for...

6 months of living with a 130i and it's been pretty good. I think it could do with a suspension refresh, but aside from that it's been (touch wood) reliable and not even that bad on fuel. Seeing that I WFH and basically use it as a weekend/long trip car, anything bigger is a bit pointless...

There's probably a ton of lurkers of this thread (like me), who tbh skip most of the tittle tattle and just look for the posts with some source links going on, i.e. 0007's posts.

Rear of a BMW, so not a very good comparison, but it feels slightly more taut. Bit hard to explain, but comfort is slightly increased (i.e. rounding off of potholes is better + much quieter), but also direction changes seem to respond a bit quicker. In terms of a scale for stiffness though with...

I've had good results with Angelwax H2GO on the windscreen (much easier to apply than G1, but it'll need rejuvenating every 6 months or so), and Gtechniq G1 for the side and rear glass

As above try cleaning it and leaving it, or apply a windscreen coating rather than a QD.

Nothing is confirmed yet, but based on the sizing of the PS5 being similar to the PS4 (i.e. 17-20"), I would expect a PS5S to come in the following months.

Yes true "end of life for most sizes" isn't exactly true, end of life for the most common sizes is more accurate. For example I'm not sure why you'd suggest a PS4 in 225/40/18 when the PS5 covers that size and is easily available (unlike the console) :o

Also have a look at the Pilot Sport 5, the 4 is now end of life I would assume for most sizes as the 5 supports the bulk of common sizes and isn't dissimilar price wise.

Cheers!

Any chance you could fix mine please? :)

Can't access it either, getting permission errors.

I had a storm of discounts, but perhaps you have some of them available to you too: 1) Website displayed ex-VAT price as incl. VAT price. Errored when going to buy, however support accepted it. 2) 15% discount with work 3) AMEX £100 cashback 4) The ol' return trick (bit cheeky) to get a final...

Ended up being £728 in the end incl all the usual advanced exchange warranty malarky. I'm pretty certain it'll be a good 5 years until something for the same/similar price does anything even marginally better than it. :cool: Oh and if you're on the fence about it, just buy it. 2 weeks in and I...
