  1. I just figure that if/when it goes to court that if you've done over and above what's reasonable, then the court is highly likely to look more in your favour. It's a pain, and it's wrong, but it's also easier long term. Send them a letter by SPECIAL delivery (not recorded, you want proof they signed for it) that you are rejecting the vehicle under the CRA 2015, and give them 14 days to give you a refund. In the mean time, send the car back to them. They have precisely nothing to stop them issuing the refund then.
  2. Bloody Polish, coming over here and levelling out our peaks.
  3. I disagree. There's no proof it's broken from their POV (although it clearly is), and if it's not who is going to pay for that transport? Put it this way, the longer it's at yours the more chance there is that they can say you broke it. If it's on their drive way, it's their problem. If you have it IN WRITING that they say they'll collect then grand, but if not I'd just get it trailered up there.
  4. Whilst I see what you mean, sadly those bits of the headlights are the indicators. Now I know they're usually optional on a BMW anyway, but I figure the MOT guys would prefer I kept them.
  5. I nearly had a bout of narcolepsy editing the photos
  6. Christ on a bike, that's massively over! I still don't see that it's down to them to collect though. If you bought a toaster from Tesco in store you wouldn't expect them to come and collect it. Chuck enough fuel & oil in to make the trip, then leave it with them.
  7. Sad pokemon
  8. F*** you. ;)
  9. First off, hi and sorry to hear about your issues. Some practical notes: It's not the dealer's fault you live so far away. Any costs to get the car back to them is your burden, customer service notwithstanding. How many miles have you done, and how much oil has been used? Up to 1L/1000mi is acceptable according to the tech documents. You either need proof the car is faulty (so pay Abbey to strip down, not something I'd do) or you need to give the car back to them and reject it. Proof of oil usage would be acceptable to use in court, so receipts & videoing works. You do need to give the car back to them one way or another, so take the easy approach first.
  10. Before, and after. Thoughts? Apart from the fact it needs a clean.
  11. Waaaaaaaay too much effort there. I just got mine drunk and took her to a beach on Xmas Eve. Bloody freezing, she would've said anything just to get somewhere warm. But yeah, congrats and stuff.

    0 - 60 mph..

    Your car has something called handling feedback though, which is what the CTR and S3 sadly lack. The Golf R though, can't help you there, it's a cracking all round package.
  13. I'll give a pug a kiss on the cheek. Does that count?
  14. sssshhhh don't tell everyone
  15. Honest, they're brilliant. If you like cats and whimsical stories about the countryside and and stuff. WOFFAL!
  16. Tom Cox's cat books are an essential read. As funny as they are insightful as they are sad. I don't normally do books, but I love this series.
  17. I have to agree with BBK, that really is a well done vid.
  18. This is getting painful, for the both of us. Look, you clearly don't understand how democracy works on a large scale, and I don't understand why you feel it's a big deal that we don't always get what we want. Let's leave it at that, we're going round in circles otherwise.
  19. In a democracy, yes. How many of those 480 laws actually made any difference to our lives?
  20. I'd also paint them black
  21. Not really. I mean, it's arty, but I like my car films to show the car doing more than 20mph or parked in someone's driveway. Stunning car though. Thank god they fixed the Huayra's front end at last!
  22. True, but extra layers and a decent lacquer is always going to be more resistant. The finish may still get whacked, but at least you're protecting the actual fibreglass.
  23. But we are in control of our destiny. We didn't want the Euro, so we don't have it. That's being in control, is it not? Don't even get me started on the mess that is Greece...!
  24. But we didn't, so the point is moot.
  25. They'll get slaughtered by stone chips. Just get them painted before you fit them.
