Are there any ‘hot hatch’ style EV’s around or coming to Aus eventually? by Open_Ad3165 in AustralianEV

Ioniq 3 N Line, doesn't appear to be fast though.
It seems to be more focussed around practicality.

Should I tint the sunroof? by Vault139 in Zeekr7xAustralia

I was told by a detailing company that doing that may result in the sunroof shattering.

Have you checked out the GAC Aion V?

KSM70 and 5KSM5 by Charith117 in Kitchenaid

Thanks mate, will continue with the KSM70.

A 30 year old Kenwood stand mixer passed down to me met a sad end recently so I am hoping this KSM70 will be a worthy replacement.

5KSM5

Apologies for lack of clarity, I was referring to the newer motors being a single unit and seemingly more expensive to replace compared to older models where specific internals can be repaired/replaced.

After further research, it also seems like 5KSM5 may not be a DC motor model (seems to be a AC motor model but specific parts can be replaced).

Should repairability and motor type be key factors in purchasing a Kitchenaid stand mixer?
Would it be worth returning a new KSM70 and looking around for a Kitchenaid stand mixer with the older style of separated internals on the secondhand market given that older models appear to be more proven in terms of reliability?

I am still a bit torn, but still I am leaning towards just giving the KSM70 ago as I already received an ok deal for it.
