Re: AdBlue replacement charge

Screwfix sell Redex Adblue quite cheap, and I bought a VW adblue filler pipe (£18 eBay) so no spills.

Just to add I paid under £700 for minor service, brake fluid and pdk service at trusted indie.

Crazy times when a 455bhp Vovo S60 saloon PHEV is under £50k with good spec levels, or a 400bhp XC40 EV for mid £50ks

Re: 2nd Hand Prices

Only until April 2025 when the 100% tax allowance for businesses ends and the benefit in kind rates go up. . The majority of premium EV sales are company purchases. I’m a private Macan buyer like the dozens already on the lists at Porsche Dealers most have over 50 deposits for electric Macans. Sold...

Re: 2nd Hand Prices

And when they all have them the queues at chargers will be enormous.................. or the battery range will be sufficient that only those with silly miles to travel in a day (i've no need for more than 250 miles) will need roadside rapid chargers. Of course big range just means more batteries t...

Re: 2nd Hand Prices

I logged my letter of interest with an OPC for a Cayman 'RS' back in Jan 2006, in the event that such or similar model be launched. So whilst not taking deposits they will have a list of potential parties - whether they stick strictly to the order they receive interest is perhaps less guaranteed.

Re: PDLS Static cornering lights not functioning

Hello people, hope you are all in fine health. I'm generally pretty comfortable working on my own cars, but I'm drawing a blank at getting the static cornering lights activate on my Diesel S :? , and I can't find any particular detail or guidance on diagnosis. Can anyone on here maybe give me a ste...

Re: Transfer box already?

I was parking in a spot at Tesco this morning and turned full lock, moving forward in comfort mode, and the car seemed to slow followed by a loud thump/bang under the car and it then lurched forward and I had to stamp on the brake to avoid hitting the bollard. I felt it through the steering too. It...

Re: £104,950 for a Macan. New record?!

Lots of customers with cash to spare out there... 💰💰💰 Lots of idiots :lol: :lol: :lol: Yep. Just thinking what it will be with in 2-3 years would stop me even considering a purchase lik...

Re: Top Selling Cars of 2022

I had a nice hybrid 3 Series as a loaner. A nice junior exec saloon. It seems that traditional four door saloons are a dying breed (3 Series, C Class, Audi A4, Jaguar XE, VW Passat etc). Looks like a 330e M sport with the performance pack, probably plus other optional extras - £50k+ BMW need a 320e...
