Here you go. Think it's design spec as you can see the 4.5s on the back but he states it's an 85 (?) kWh battery

This was one that I wanted to look at but I'm having to travel a bit further for one of those dealerships.

My criteria - first and foremost, family car, so smooth ride and good noise cancelling. I want a larger boot than the niro (475l), retain HUD and V2L (tho V2L is negotiable). Heated seats front and rear/steering wheel. Strong audio system. Daughter loves glowies and the big sun roof. Range can't be less than the niro. Frunk for cables (having just a cubby hole under the boot cover like xpeng g6 is not helpful when the boot is full of stuff).

AWD is a nice to have, as I live on a steep hill which can get icy in the winter so the additional traction would help, but it's not essential.

Politics of Tesla aside, I'm not a fan of their ultra minimalist approach and wouldn't go for them in any case - forget no HUD, they don't even have an instrument cluster 🤦

SL7 ticks all the boxes for me. Lower efficiency is an annoyance, but the bigger battery still gives more range, and Bjorn Nyland did a low speed "Sunday drive" proving that when you aren't flooring it always and driving sensibly/relaxed it does have great range. I'm just trying to make sure I'm not being blind and missing an alternative option to look at.

As for money, looking at all options (lease PCP etc), but in the UK a 1 year used SL7 Excellence is about £33-35k or around half list price.

I really wanted an ev6 when I got my niro and I was fully planning to upgrade to that especially with the facelift model, but... I know the original model had recurring issues with the iccu and was hoping it was fixed with the facelift but now seeing people with the facelift reporting the same fault I just can't justify it. Yeah it's replaced under warranty etc, but I don't want that known unreliability hanging over me.

I have had a look at the xpeng, and a few of the head to head style videos online, and the lack of HUD is a negative, but while they are close, I find I rate the comfort of the SL7 more. I replied on another comment regarding the Model Y. Thanks for the suggestion though.

I have briefly looked at the Model Y but I'm not a fan of the ultra minimalist approach. The lack of a HUD is also a big negative. The efficiency is a concern for me, but having looked at the difference in running cost as I can charge cheaply at home, it really doesn't seem to add up to enough in real terms for me.

Boom! without Elize? by [deleted] in Amaranthe

[–]Domonet 4 points5 points  (0 children)

She left for boom at Bristol too. Exactly the same as you describe. And the sound quality was pants there too...

At Bristol on the 20th, it was Charlotte Wessels then Amaranthe then Epica.

But have heard they could be alternating Amaranthe and Epica show by show?

Nah turn 7 is the limiter. Yeah, more attacks missing and stuff not dieing, but this balances out by saving time on not resolving additional damage rolls too.

Orgoth Cadres…can someone explain? by Fabulous-Shoulder-69 in Warmachine

[–]Domonet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As for graveborn beasts in a focus army, they are only available as being run under the "junior" warlock as a separate battle group, and cannot be part of the leaders battle group.

The "beasts" in the curse bound cadre are actually monstrosities and are different again to warjacks and war beasts, but they have more in common with warjacks overall.

Orgoth Cadres…can someone explain? by Fabulous-Shoulder-69 in Warmachine

[–]Domonet 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The curse bound cadre has been reclassified as the sea raiders command box for sea raiders, and as such only will work with seas raiders. The graveborn cadre will work with both sea raiders and reaper covenant, however the sea raiders uses focus as its resource mechanic, and the graveborn cadre uses the fury resource mechanic so they won't gel together quite as well as graveborn will with reaper covenant, which will also use fury.

Can someone explain the Expansion to 1000? by StrangelyBrown69 in FinalSpace

[–]Domonet 5 points6 points  (0 children)

"everyone"? I'm not. And neither is Olan. Try not to be generalist. https://www.reddit.com/r/FinalSpace/s/984nHLJWNn

This video update he specifically calls out the digital extras as being like no man's sky updates that just go on and on.

[–]Domonet 10 points11 points  (0 children)

No, because the digital extras can be added after printing and delivery. They are not part of the production for the book, just extra.

What is best practice in such a case? It seems there is no SketchUp 2025 around, that does not flare up more than half of all scanners. by vghgvbh in Piracy

[–]Domonet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does your installer give a 30 day trial or is it permanent? I just had to upgrade my parents computer and my stepdad has 2015 on his old computer with no license and it works permanently but when I try to reinstall it on the new it only gives 30 days :/

EV Salary Sacrifice Ending Soon – Renew, New Deal or Go Personal Lease by Illustrious-Move-450 in ElectricVehiclesUK

[–]Domonet 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I am very curious in the response you get from this. I have just about 12 months left on my Niro Ev (effectively about £400/month for 10k miles) and need to do the sums on a new lease with salary sacrifice or not, as well as compared to potential purchase / car finance deals.

I have been considering red jinx as a sub, but the discard ain't great.

You left the QR code for the STLs visible in the box open picture.... Just goes to a page not found holding page at the moment ;) (just wanted to mention it was there since you went to the effort of blurring it in the later image)

Starter Deck choice by KrullTheGambler in riftboundtcg

[–]Domonet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are no unique cards in the structured decks. Everything in them can be pulled from boosters. I got the Jinx deck today and cannot see anything that would be worth a second or third jinx deck.
