Erm JP is right: Unless the EU agree to an extension, no deal exit will be happening. There’s no time left for anything else.

Well, you could remove the equivalent weight from the front of the car. But no one does. Ever. Take it out and leave it out, if you’re desperate for the space. Just remember the RAC won’t cover you if you get a puncture and don’t have the spare with you though...

Should be obvious when you show the rails to the base of the seat, but yes: The bar should always pull up to you.

What a shame they didn’t mate the Bmw lump up to a manual ‘box, rather than go the generic and obvious swap route.

WAAAAAAAAAANT But I would get them to put the full fat 1000bhp engine in, insta-death

https://www.motor1.com/features/280320/best-selling-vehicles-us-list/ 426,168. That’s the amount of RAV4s sold in the US in the last year, the most popular selling car (I’ll ignore the trucks above it for fairness). You actually think the Model 3 will be able to push those kind of numbers? Theyre currentky making approx 5700 Model 3s per week. That makes annual manufactured cars (not sold) of just under 300,000. https://www.bloomberg.com/graphics/2018-tesla-tracker/ Even assuming that Tesla ramp up production, that’s still a fair bit off.

Hang on, you swapped a V8 for a diesel? Man card in that box over there by the exit, please.

As always, break it down to the minimum facts: There is a legal standard that all fuels have to meet to be classed as Super/Premium/97RON or higher. This is a pretty tough standard to meet, so you can guarantee that the fuel is of a certain quality. Every single 97RON+ fuel on sale in the UK today meets this standard as a minimum, and anything above that you're arguing tiny percentages of betterness. As long as whatever you put in your car meets the RON minimum for your vehicle, there's zero evidence to prove either way that one is better than another. If there was proper evidence, then Shell/BP/Esso would be screaming it from the rooftops. They're not. So there isn't. Just drive your damn cars and enjoy them

I'm talking about more than just a couple of Jap car companies though, I'm talking about companies from many different fields. It's common sense and obvious they would leave to ensure they keep their business where they have many customers, even if they leave a small base of ops here in the UK. Of course some would leave it until now to say they're leaving, as really they don't want the cost of upping sticks and once again it comes down to the political game of putting pressure on MPs. If they can call their bluff then great, if not then well they need to go anyway.

There's really no need, many people are now running that size in that tyre with zero issues, so I'm confident recommending it to every one now

Don't know. No-one can answer that.

255/35/19 285/35/19 In MPS4S.

Yes, it absolutely would. Maybe not all, as the sensible ones will have already started making plans a year ago, but it would certainly stop some jumping ship.

They should vote to accept the deal.

Thing is, having a Lotus badge looking back at you trumps any VX badge. There's just something more 'right' about it.

Jeeeeez

Agreed, they are a little snug! Shame about the Elises though. Even the 111S?

987 usual concerns over bore scoring and IMS, but that you know. Get the sports seats but avoid the Bose. Z4 I really like, but you cannot see where the front end is at all from the driver seat. I found that disconcerting! S2K would be on my list too. Elise too, as Lotus ownership is very different from VX, and for the better imho. If you’re looking at the 987 then I’d look at a 996 cab too, may not be the looker of the family but it’s still an amazing car and you get the flat six wail too

*pfffftttttsssshhhppptttt* Coffee, meet keyboard They can't even ship the bloody things to meet demand, so how can it remotely be close to the best selling car in the US this year?! Remind me of this post come Jan 1st 2020, and if it did happen I'll send you a box of Curly Wurlys.

Could be worse, it could've been in Scotland!

When I did VMax in my 911 (which wasn't anywhere near as quick as yours!) I nearly shat myself when I hit even 150mph for the first time, and I had to force myself to keep my foot buried to get to the 176mph that I eventually topped out at. By the end of the day it felt natural, but I am impressed by the guys who plough on through the double-ton and just keep going...

It does work, cheers dude

Honestly? Not really. You could try as not fit for purpose, but it would be 50/50 all the way to judgement and I certainly wouldn't take the punt. I'd be sucking up to AS first of all and then getting more irate if they did nothing, but really that's just life. Bodge it up and move on with life

Pfft, he only got caught at 156mph, probably hitting the brakes at that point

If you want to raise and lower at will, then you’ll need either a proper hydraulic lifting kit or air suspension. Even regular adjustable suspension will take you a fair while to change ride heights. As for a more planted feel have you done a proper geo, what tyres are you running and are you on stock roll bars? Also are we talking low speed or high speed corners?
