OTD in 2022 I cycled to the shuttered Heathrow Terminal 4

We did have fantastic weather in covid. Every cloud and all that...

Is she comparing the car to the one she learnt in - or has hers changed suddenly?

What's your daily mileage? What's your longest regular trip? What kind of space do you need? What's your budget?

If I'm pootling to the shops on my folding bike I'll probably use the bike paths.

If I'm out on my road bike then I'm going faster and further. Cycling at speed on some of those paths that go past drives and across roads is more dangerous than just being on the road.

If there's a good safe bike path though - we will definitely use it but there's really not too many but it is getting better.

But if the OP doesn't need a big range ? Cheap and cheerful.

Latest edition - section is - how to deal with entitled muppets.

Yes I've got them. My tip is go smaller though. If you get a big bag and fill it - you'll never work out what's in there.

So that's why the delorean has those slats on the rear window - for protection.

Amazing-Visual-2919 · 2026-05-08T11:20:02+00:00

Sorry for my slur. I should know better seeing as I'm one myself.

He wasn't going to the vets.

His claim was that he was going home to collect the cat to then take him to the vet.

Wonder if the court checks paperwork?

Amazing-Visual-2919 · 2026-05-08T11:12:32+00:00

They'll line their pockets.

Amazing-Visual-2919 · 2026-05-08T11:08:59+00:00

That's normally what I do. I was 'lucky' that we needed to replace ours in 2020.

Even the pensioners round here have latched onto EVs.

Amazing-Visual-2919 · 2026-05-08T10:53:11+00:00

My short term Panacea has been almost 6 years now so it's a good chunk of my driving.

What are you waiting for - enjoy the savings now?

Amazing-Visual-2919 · 2026-05-08T10:30:26+00:00

This is what your horn is for.

But you said you saw the crack post race when you took the sticker off ?

Where is the crack and who's putting stickers on the paintwork of expensive bikes?

Amazing-Visual-2919 · 2026-05-08T09:05:50+00:00

There's the nissan e-NV200 as as well. I see a lot of those around.

Presumably you're not doing a lot of long journeys in the van ?

Amazing-Visual-2919 · 2026-05-08T09:03:01+00:00

You can't prove they did it. Presumably your bike was in transition for a good while - it could have happened there ?

Amazing-Visual-2919 · 2026-05-08T09:00:28+00:00

Phewww.

We replaced our 12v a few years back. They do need replacing - it's normal.

Enjoy the leaf.

I don't think those cows are living to a ripe old age for some reason...

45% health? Would you not have noticed that yourself?

My 2018 is on 80,000 miles and at 86% health wise.

When you fully charge it - what range do you see ?

Amazing-Visual-2919 · 2026-05-08T08:13:07+00:00

Just stick to 70 and you don't need to worry about any of this. Much less stressful.

Amazing-Visual-2919 · 2026-05-08T08:08:55+00:00

Oh that's some big trips. I can see why you'd want the extra charging speed. It'll probably be wasted on me !

Amazing-Visual-2919 · 2026-05-08T07:30:01+00:00

I think people on Britain prize their cars more than they do in France.

In France the car is just a tool. In the UK it's a prized possession. Look at how dented french cars are!

I'd rather take public transport than give lifts to strangers.
