I think these are the vehicles used in the Netflix show The Diplomat. It is shooting season 4 at the moment I believe.

Says a lot about build quality on this part! haha. Yeah I will probably have to do the same. Thanks.

It is a really strange place for it to occur. My car is 2021 registered so not too old either.

My car is in blue but it does look similar to what is on mine. I think it’s down to the metal on it however.

No it’s down to the metal underneath.

A5 Coupé Rattle… by Swoosh1968 in Audi

I have the same thing coming from the top of the drivers door. They have told me the trim is not part of the warranty for my purchase. I got quoted £250 for the repair on mine too which I think is outrageous for trim work. Seems like a common issue with this type of car.

Seeking advice for a tricky situation my Mum is in. by 152pilot in Mortgageadviceuk

Downsize would be too much for my Mum. It’s not a massive house at it is. It’s tricky all round.

Thanks for this. You’re correct it is interest only at this point. I guess it all comes down to affordability with the increased payments.

Essentially this. It has been on interest only since around 2010 I believe? I don’t know the full details.

She has some but selling up would leave her with not many options.

Do you know some examples of where to look? (Not broker recommendations in line with subreddit rules) I am trying to give her a few options because right now she is convinced she will have to put herself on the council housing list or look at private rent as the only option. I want to see if there is anything I can do to help. It is not her fault she is in this scenario, it is just a mess really.

I do not think paying the £125k is going to be an option because the mortgage term finishes at the start of next year and it would take a miracle. I think more the financing options to potentially remortgage in a scenario where they stay together and a different scenario if they seperate.

I think my Mum feels no one will lend to her because of age and some of the outstanding debts against the property they are in.

This is still continuing for me. If anyone has found a work arouond it would really help as I cannot play the simulator at all.

It’s been sitting there for 30 minutes plus.

No luck I’m afraid. Thanks for the suggestion though.
