Ekona

I said it at the time, but it would've been better if Bianchi had died on impact. That's no way to live, and especially with such a bleak outlook.

I tend to just check AT and PH. Doesn't mean I wouldn't buy from the others, they're just more of a fall back position as the idiot to sensible ratio goes up a fair bit on eBay and Gumtree

Well, it's brave, I'll give you that. A tad foolhardy perhaps, but it worked out for you so fair play

I've had pretty much exclusively positive service from main dealers, Nissan included. Toyota were the only ones who ever gave me cause to complain, but they responded superbly once I had complained.

If I missed it, then my apologies. As you were, people.

Adrian, not sure if you've done so yet or not but you should probably clarify whether this is a personal or business sale. I assume the former, however you're selling it under your tradename on here and using your tradename in the pics too: Don't want you to get caught out with people coming back to you with warranty claims fella

On the flip side, main dealers regularly charge in hourly blocks for work, so you've been charged the minimum their computer system will let them. Whether they should be doing that in the first place is a different story. If it had been me, I wouldn't have charged that bill but instead added a sum to cover the 15-20 mins or so onto the next bill once the investigation/rectification works were actually complete. Still get paid the same, but it's a bit more customer friendly.

That happened ages ago. Lewis is a bit of a tool now, but he can seriously pedal so I forgive him. I thought he was having a bit of a joke with Arnie though, and Arnie took it the right way. It was light hearted ribbing, not insulting.

Dull race, good start for Lewis, and ARNIE!!! Shambolic how we had so few cars on the grid though. Marussia are no loss, but the rules need changing to allow drivers to be replaced in case of illness or injury, as in Bottas. So funny to see McLaren miles behind everyone else though

I know, I'm bloody useless me. I'll do the vid during the week, I think. Keep you all on the edge of your seats, like.

Chill bro, only just got home There's only in car video from the track, I've no idea how good it is yet.

No fear, I have video

That's the thing for me, looking over all the excitement about mpg: Sure, as an everyday car to get from home to work to the MiL at the weekend, a hybrid saloon is a good idea. As a thing that I want to look forward to driving I just can't get excited about them, unless you spend £££ and do it 918 style. Also, top work on the man maths for the Q50

Things I learnt yesterday: A 645Ci makes a pretty rubbish track car. A 645Ci can keep up with a stripped and 888-shod RX8 on track if you really, really, really pedal the thing. When all else fails, drifting a 645Ci is bloody hysterical.

Do you reckon Alonso has just sunk further under the duvet at home?!

Dude, I can't even spell instruction manual.

Because it's a shambles, and they wanted the sponsor money. Farce. Also, lols at McLaren being at the back of the grid, what a heap of crap!

Never put copper grease on wheel nuts. Ever.

I once built a SHED from scratch with just PLANKS of WOOD, then wrestled a BEAR inside it, then FOUGHT with Vladimir Putin afterwards as it was HIS fighting bear I was FIGHTING. I then ATE all the chillis in the WORLD and didn't have a POO for a fortnight, whilst drinking MY own wee for sustenance in a Bear GRYLLS style. Indeed, I am the manliest man. Goodnight.

Did you get anything in writing re the roof? I suspect not given the tone of your post. One day, I'm going to go up there and waste an entire day of their time & their fuel driving as much stock as I can, just to get my own back for folks that have had a bad experience from here.

Sounds like a bag of nails, and looks like it drives like one too.

I thought they sounded more interesting this year when watching FP1 earlier, but I thought it might just have been that I hadn't heard them in a while. Still sound like hoovers though, and the perfect example of why FI cars never sound as good as NA.

You and Ekona need to get a room pretty soon! Well, it's what all the cool kids do

Good luck, and I genuinely hope this works out for you

Or at least give us leave to mock you when it turns out to be a complete lemon and we can all say we told you so
