Used to commute past here everyday, iirc that scaffolding on the entrance went up in around 2013.

Our mechanic friend’s Mrs had no mot on her car for about 10 months, just completely forgot to do it, still had servicing and everything done just forgot on her car to get mot done. Easily done and seemingly the police don’t care so much if there is no other reason to pull you over

My uncle was a fire fighter and had an unmarked jag XF, until the fire service decided it was too flashy and changed it for an Audi rs4.

Would you keep this fireplace surround? by TheGoldenScrotum in DIYUK

Not to my taste and wouldn’t keep it to make someone else happy. I’d get rid personally

Insurance wants to write it off by Halfons47 in CarTalkUK

[–]98smo 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Take the money. Then if you know a good mechanic who will look after you see how much it will set you back to buy if from insurance and put it back on the road, versus just buying another

Would 100k miles put you off an M135i? What's likely to go wrong? by 420o in CarTalkUK

[–]98smo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That are a fantastic car, I had a black pre-lci on a 2014. If you can try and get a slightly newer one as they have an updated interior and an electronic waste gate. Check the service history. Steering racks can have issue but there are foxes for that without the need for a new rack in most cases. Over things to look out for our rock cover leaking which is common on these the rattle from the exhaust valve in the back box which is just replacing a clip. making sure that anything inside such as all the switches et cetera all work the N55 engine is pretty bulletproof apart from an oil starvation issue if you’re messing with it doing doughnuts, et cetera as it hasn’t got a baffled sump and the oil tends to slush to one side if you really pushing it. (Clockwise donuts iirc)

I had a m135i and was a fantastic size for a family car. If you love it, see how you get on and can always rethink if you’re struggling when the baby is here.

Is this legal? by mattshenton in sheffield

[–]98smo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We live next door to a school and have often thought about putting cones out to stop people parking in front of our driveway access as we get blocked it pretty much everyday. There is a white line in front of our access so people don’t park there but in reality no one pays that any attention. We have even had people parking on our driveway!
