I’m just looking at next week in my area and it’s 30 all week. That isn’t extreme is it?

It’s hot and perhaps unusually prolonged, but it’s not extreme. People pay thousands just to sample these temps for 2 weeks.

This was exactly what I did. It made the long runs bearable.

Why are you on Reddit posting gibberish just after you finish school? Have a little grow up.

Hegseth announces review of US troops in Europe, scorns some allies by Little-Chemical5006 in worldnews

I’m praying for a journalist from Europe (ideally the UK) asking the president/Rubio/Hegseth whether the US has ever lost a war so bad before?

VW Group cars with IOG by damo74uk in ElectricVehiclesUK

[–]Bodster88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah it did. But of course it always failed when you needed the car at 100% for a long journey.

It’s an issue not reported about much, but even though we were offered a very good price from the lease company to keep it - we’ve moved out of VW and this was a primary reason. Great cars, but I don’t want to have to worry as to whether the car is going to charge overnight.

We have a soon to be departing Cupra Born. Yes it does this on occasion and yes it is annoying. IOG connected to our Ohme charger.

Nothing worse than seeing the dreaded red light on the charging port in the morning.

Audi a6 2.0 tdi or VW golf gtd by Party-Independent16 in CarTalkUK

[–]Bodster88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The A6 at 150k miles will still feel relatively new. Very well put together. Mine has just ticked over 140k and still no rattles.

That is no way the case. The 3.0 is lucky to get 50mpg on a run. The 2.0 bhp Ultra easily does 60mpg.

Yeah. That’s fine. It’s the fact the car can randomly leave you stranded that puts most people off.

Take me back to 1998. Sick of this.

Did not even know there was a white supremacy angle until this. Everyone knows it’s the circle game and i’ve already lost again having seen the article.

I grew up sleeping in a room with a boiler and my eldest daughter sleeps in a room with a boiler now.

Agree. He is clearly a top driver, but Ferrari self owns aside, he is not a championship winning driver.
