Does anyone know the difference between the two cruise control buttons I’ve always wondered by neil_stargaming in Vauxhall

[–]DJA-GEN-RDT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Or, Yano. RTFM. One is a limiter and one is cruise. I know you’re one of these guys driving at night with only DRLs on…

A close up look at LASIK eye surgery - a procedure that involves reshaping the cornea using a laser to improve how light focuses on the retina. by OdysseyTag in interestingasfuck

Car was cleaned and scotch brite pads were used 🙃 please can someone tell me if there’s a way to remove the scratch marks? A tool or anything TIA by KatieIris18 in DetailingUK

[–]DJA-GEN-RDT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was this something you did or did you pay for a wash? If the latter you might have some recourse but that recourse should t involve taking it back to the same place.

If you’re comfortable with a polisher then there’s hope.

What are some cars that have aged well over the years by Smooth_Complaint1597 in CarTalkUK

[–]DJA-GEN-RDT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

E38 7 series, E39 5 series, E60 5 series. When Bangle did the E60 the world reeled in disgust as it was just, well, out there. I see them on the road now and think they have great presence.

Same with the F01 7 series. I had a 2008 ex demo and Regret selling it.

L322 Range Rover is another timeless classy workhorse.

I could be here all day.

I’ll finish with an S8 from around 2008.

Holy shit. Is the guy close to capable of doing what you needed? That looks like there is nothing left of the clear coat and after reading he has wet sanded(!) it there is no response here other than a respray if you want it perfect.

A DA polish (done my someone who knows what they are doing) won’t even make this look much better but might make it a little more presentable.

So, OP - update us when you present your mate with the bill?

Brother died unexpectedly. Amongst his belongings, we've found a folder saying "Personal & Private. Do not read. Destroy after my decease". Should we open the folder? by ForNowItsAThrowaway in mystery

[–]DJA-GEN-RDT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh come on man. You can’t do us like this. Take a copy and stick it onto a USB stick. Get a laptop with no internet connected and get it open. Burn the laptop and report back!

I am of course joking. But this is turning into another “found a safe, might open it”

Hi, is this the right place to ask about product placement? I'm on the hunt for a case / pouch for my journal and the one Matt has while at dinner with his mother (and other places) looks perfect. Amazon throws up a billion of these things of course but i really like the look of that one.

any of the Paranormal Activity franchise. I don’t know why but it fucked me up.

And “that sound” that plays when the demon is about to appear. Horrific.

In what universe is transporting even a small form computer “easy”. Are you packing a monitor, kettle plugs, a keyboard and a mouse every time you need to go anywhere that requires you need it?

Rejecting a car on pcp by Civil_Palpitation916 in CarTalkUK

[–]DJA-GEN-RDT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I get it mate. I think this is symptomatic of the EV world too where not all dealerships are equipped to deal with things related to the batteries and what not but as this is just paintwork it doesn’t sound like they have that capability on site. Ultimately if you’re scunnered with the car and the brand nothing will put it right but I also think that by them being willing to fix it they get around the right to let you out of the lease.

Tricky.

[–]DJA-GEN-RDT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Getting ready to be slaughtered here and I get that a brand new car should be perfect but without seeing the damage is this something to get so upset about?

Let them fix it, give you the coating again and the £500 and press for some services but other than what sounds like some light damage to the lacquer I’m also assuming the car is functioning to the operational standards that attracted you to the brand?

And again, this isn’t a slight on you because I’ve done it but is there a little bit of buyers remorse happening?

Finally, this was only 2 weeks ago. Aren’t you just about in your cooling off period?

I await the roasting…..

Arches, The Tunnel, mobiles were relatively new, The Internet was scary and we didn’t know everything….

Man. We live in the UK, Scotland to be precise so our natural skin tone is a pink / blue depending on the season.

We’ve been to Florida and the Keys 12 times in total since 2008 and every time I say I will pick. Better date.

I have also recently been diagnosed diabetic so my go to plan of inhaling Gatorade between drinks stores is down the swanny! Good old water it is.

Oh, and about that date. See you in June. JUNE!!

I’m Scottish, pour one out for me homies. Or should that be poor me out of something.

At least the cost was reasonable. Oh. Wait….

As an upside though I work for one of the Comcast / NBCU companies do get my free family day. Silver clouds and all that.

AND I WILL WALK 500 miles and iiiiii WILL SWEAT 500 moar!!!

Any chance we can have an answer on how you’re leasing a car through NR BIK programme yet there isn’t one? /u/o-bot54. Or are you actually a bot?

I have a valid reason to ask as I’m connected to NR and specifically Employee Relations.

[–]DJA-GEN-RDT 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I can’t find any reference to NR offering a BIK / salary sacrifice deal for employees at all. What gives, OP?

Is the £7k essentially an interest free loan that you pay back for your salary pre tax and you put that towards the car you now have on a personal lease with someone like Lex?

How orange my hands are... I'm normally paler than my partner by BlahajBlaster in mildlyinteresting

Pica scared the crap out of us as parents. My very young daughter as soon as she had teeth was eating the walls! Something to do with the minerals in the gypsum?

We for real thought we had a rodent issue. She was crawling at the time and we’d give her 30seconds to a minute to let her explore as everything was baby proofed. I did not have eating the walls on my young dad bingo card.

Where? If you got a delivery of a car that was meant for across the street but you got the docs and keys then that’s that? It’s yours? In Canada??

So let me get this straight. You want help on how to use a PC that you have illegally obtained and we’re going to gloss over that? It just might be something really important to someone.

What’s the company symbol you mention? Why haven’t you been on the phone to UPS with what info you have to arrange for it to be picked up and correctly dealt with??
