  1. Yuppppp, shoe on other foot for a change... The only thing I don't like is the fact that it doesn't have more ML badges on it!
  2. You take that back! Why ruin the dream... 😆 THE blue of all blues, seen in the flesh and agreed, it is something to behold bit bias towards this, but the grey, which I think is Mercury grey is also pretty special I wonder if the finance residuals are stronger and making it a bit more appealing and negating some of the current high market prices? Should try get a dummy quote from a dealer.
  3. Had some sugar and got excited... 😆 That would be an interesting stat/ quest, find a non ML one! Counter arguments below: Heavier - I'm a skinny git so I offset that weight gain Weakness - Makes for easy escape and I can check which way up I've landed if uncertain/ concussed Headroom - Not tall enough to notice, BUT, get rid of perfect fitting, uber comfortable and functional drivers seat and whack in some ebay low boy just to prove a beanstalk can drive it with a helmet on Leak - not if you never open it and 'No more nails' it to within an inch of its life OR have you not seen the ads for FLEX TAPE?!!!
  4. Never ceases to amaze me - *MEGA SPEC COMBINATION WHICH INCLUDES TVD, SUNROOF & RED LEATHER*... so TVD standard option and has the only two options sunroof and ML... aside exterior and interior colour choices. BLOCK CAPITALS MEGA TURBO WONGA BUYTHISNOW TACTICS Plus if this is the benchmark, mine is now worth £8k more than purchase price in 2018! Just need it to appreciate enough for that LFA purchase... 🤣
  5. how much extra bhp? 🤣
  6. Sell 1 guitar per tank of fuel 😉 🤣
  7. The autotrader ad has been updated with ***SOLD*** now heading the description Lets see if they pop up here 👀
  8. This is the way! 😛
  9. Welcome to F club! White with red leather, totally biased but best colour combo 😛 Seems Hampshire knows what cars to buy 😉 The quicksilver is a good addition to release some of that V8 goodness, happy motoring and will keep an eye out for 'UMM' 😆
  10. Prices have cooled ever so slightly since last quarter, but new car availability is still terrible, if not essentially non-existent. The ad was pants to start, the pics were taken using a potato. If it hasn't sold, surely have the foresight to change your game plan and update the ad? What springs to mind is that even dealers haven't snapped it up, so they either mega low balled or just aren't interested. Mods shouldn't be a problem, think it sold with current mods once before and there was a god awful orange RC F up for sale, that had imo been a bit chavved up, but that sold - albeit I saw it up for sale again the other day. If you had the cash available, now would be a super time to message them and say you've been watching it and now the price has dropped you'd be interested in coming to a deal and snake in for sub £30k... 😛
  11. @B1RMA happens to the best of us mate 😆 - if you don't know, you don't know. Seems that everyone else is a right swat judging by some of the less tasteful comments 🤷‍♂️😉, live and learn, and then have a laugh about it after! Out of interest, is it still the original battery? I have Yuasa Silver in both my GS and LS, they never miss a beat and the LS isn't on a CTEK, it just braves it out week after week, poor thing 🤣. I only ask as the GS and LS both suffered knackered batteries over lockdown, GS having its OEM and a cell went in it, the LS having essentially a load of AA batteries taped together and a Lion sticker on it 😛😆
  12. I believe a study had the average pump flow rate in the UK at 40-50 litres per minute which was **** compared to our mainland Europe counterparts. BUT I do think some were shown to be as low as 25L/min... so if you're at the jankiest pump station, maybe it'll take an age 🤣 @Linas.P so 2 mins really is feasible @Boxbrownie maybe you should sit and time 2 minutes on your phone just standing at home, it is surprising how slow it really goes when you aren't doing anything, so standing at a pump would be no different, unless you take a while to get in/ out of your car and release the fuel cap? (no sarcasm, just a possible observation, as to why it feels longer for you)
  13. It was a Polestar 2, it was an instagram story and I didn't save it, but have asked the original poster for the image/ video. Also, caught up with my dad today and without prompt he was advised for his Jaguar I-Pace to stay between 20-80% charge... I see this thread has really sparked some discussion, good to see, love some enthusiastic information bashing 😛
  14. @Boxbrownie @jumbojake - you two should chat about overcharging, seeing as you're the only ones mentioning it...
  15. Merely stating what some manufacturers display as a message on screen during charging, only aware as I have seen multiple posts online. Also fairly sure Lithium batteries degrade faster with full charges and use below a certain % Regarding 'internet rumour' - I rarely post anything I believe to be factual unless I'm sure it is correct, I hate being mislead and I appreciate others would too, so I tend to do a decent amount of reading before typing it out 🙂
  16. Dont't forget to NOT charge your battery to 100% to help extend its life... Also have seen way too many things on instagram where people have been at a 100+KWh charger and it is only drawing low 20-30's - eliminating your 'fast charge' capability And whole heartedly cannot wait for there to be restrictions (which have already been talked about) on charging hours/ amount, due to national grid not being able to cope, that'll be a meme in itself! Deadlines being brought ever nearer to appease climate regulations with essentially no forethought on how to invest in infrastructure to make it all happen My dad has just swapped his RX450h (2016) for a Jaguar I-Pace (2019) as his daily driver and I think that might be a shock to the system, admittedly he has an advantage, a mass solar array on his house and energy storage capabilities that allow him to charge 'essentially' free, I forget the charge capabilities i.e KWh as it was only used on a Smart EV before with 100miles or less range. @Linas.P always seem to find each other in these EV topics 😉 🤣
  17. Seeing as you have the part numbers, I would be inclined to try the following: ebay - 'toyota + part number', sometimes you get some amazing finds amayama - search the part number, it will see whether it is available new but also, lists all models that use that part in toyota group, might find an alternative car to source parts from rockauto - amazing what parts are still available from warehouse at fairly decent prices, always use Fedex for shipping, pre-pays import duty etc and I've had parts delivered within 3 days Happy hunting 🙂
  18. Yes it is the one from JayEmm The previous owners before its current home run a car club and that is who JayEmm borrowed it from Yes it is the car prevously up for 42k with fancy pics and warranty offer @Papa Munchy probs the stock pads, notorious for squealing like a hog, most of us went for EBC's red stuff, same performance minus the hog! @Pielight I paid 36k for mine 3ish years ago with 15k miles 😛 seems the more miles I put on, the more its value rises! 😆 @ironrose 500k and you can have mine, I can then try import an LFA and daily drive the dream machine! 🤣
  19. in Balamory? 😆
  20. Just having a very childish laugh that w a n k from w a n k e l has been blanked out 🤣
  21. They look easy as F 😛 to clean compared to mine! Also the original finish is by far the best!
  22. *throws money at laptop screen* 🤣
  23. I drove 590mile round trip to get my Biposto, drove my dad up in the F, he drove that back and I drove the Biposto back (it is definitely not a motorway car) 🤣 Seems we are all of the same mind 😛
  24. It was considered good value at its pricemark, had been driven too which was nice to see. Linkkkkk?
