Absolutely sweet FA ! ….I’ve reported a car scam advert yet it keep appearing under different user names !

Warning from one of the banks over Facebook scams…. https://www.santander.co.uk/about-santander/media-centre/press-releases/facebook-fraudsters-driving-off-with-thousands-as-car

Seems listed again …. http://www.autotrader.co.uk/car-details/202402297080883 wonder if someone backed out the deal 🤔🤔

Just look up importing …. "If you are looking at buying a car or other vehicle from one of the Channel Islands, then don’t be put off because it will need to be declared to Customs, before you can register it with the DVLA. The most important thing to note, is that you will have to pay VAT on the purchase price (the UK’s Standard rate of VAT is currently 20.0%)." 😳

…..and the island has a Max speed limit of 35MPH 😮😮

Not heard any problems .

Rough set of photos, not much detail to been seen ☹️

As rare as white is there has been 3 up for grabs. CN57 NWO the U.K facelift has sold. S999 TGV import facelift with red leather still for sale, this is the one that was cheaper a month ago and has been flipped by another dealer for a few grand more.☹️ J111 TYL white pre facelift has only been on Facebook…looks very clean and original …..Not that I’ve been watching any of them 😳😉

I was interested in all the correct torque setting for brakes and suspension bolts 👍🏻👍🏻

Some light bedtime reading just arrived in the post 😎

Yes we’ve since gone decimal, not in the EU, ULEZ camera’s everywhere and petrol 7 quid a gallon 😉

The wheel Refurbished was all leading onto the next spend up …fitting a new pair of Pirelli P Zero tyres. Although didn’t go totally to plan….wanted to match the tread pattern and only wanted one tyre, ordered from Asda tyres and had it fitted at a local tyre depot. To my disappointment the tread pattern has been updated, yet I still needed that tyre replaced, so went ahead with it . So now has old and new tread patterns on the same axle ☹️, the old tread patterned tyre had a cut in the side wall …probably not an mot fail but wanted them to match and be safe so bought a second one. This time chose a different supplier, so now have the matching pair I wanted…note to myself….why do new tyres feed so much smoother and quieter on the road ? 😉😉

If the tyres have good tread then keep them ….just use half throttle when drifting it out of roundabouts 😉😉

Have to say my first platinum Ice SC430 I left it in power mode all the time, never really noticed the Mpg….or chose to ignore it 😉

Wet weather is lacking ….

Minimum kurb weight 1740Kg.

"Do HID headlamps require washers / self levellers? Headlamp washing and levelling systems are a legal requirement for high intensity discharge (HID) lamps with a luminous intensity exceeding 2,000 lumens. But unless the luminous intensity is marked on the lamp, a tester won’t be able to tell if these systems are needed. So, they can only be rejected if they are fitted and are inoperative or obviously defective. If they are missing and you believe they should be fitted, then pass and advise."

What’s the full name of the tyre I’ll look up its performance test 👍🏻

Best take the motorhome then 👍🏻👍🏻 Hey…just a thought …tow the SC430 behind the motorhome 🤔🤔

You got a motorhome as well ?

That’s one hell of a long wheel base motorhome😮
