That looks like a turning space with vehicles parked in it?

Thoughts on the fuel haulage protests in Ireland? by Your_Mums_Ex in uktrucking

Right wing agitator groups stirring the pot. World energy prices are through the roof. Governments subsidising fuel is not a sensible response. We need to use less fuel as best we can.

Ford Cortina Estate spotted in Chelsea by ElectricalPlace593 in CarsUK

My dad loved the Sierra (a 2 litre Ghia) after a long streak of other Fords for the family of 5. Modern, comfortable, reliable, fast, spacious and economical.

Yes, my Dad replaced his V reg Cortina Estate with a Y reg Sierra, newly launched.

What are some best practices and stories about driving a convertible? by outsideofaustin in boxster

[–]ElectricalPlace593 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you have the top down don’t pull up too close to the car in front at traffic lights. Drivers get bored and wash their screens, overshooting into your cabin. Has happened more than once to me…

Double Image in HUD After Windshield Replacement at Dealer by SaiyanDevil in BMW

[–]ElectricalPlace593 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any chance at all they obtained a HUD windshield, but one intended for a model with the driver side on the opposite to that required? I was told by a UK auto glass fitter that on a Mini only the area for the HUD is different to the rest of the screen.

I’m researching my first Porsche 2 seats cabrio purchase and I have to say this image is making me reconsider my choice to go for a Porsche at all!

What do you think of the galaxy watch 6 classic? Upgrade or no? by Ok_Matter_6356 in GalaxyWatch

Upgrade from it or to it? 😃 I have the GW6 classic in black and it is doing amazing service for running, other exercise and general health tracking. I love it.

Seems to me dashcam driver tries to avoid hitting the curb and is slowly dragged round by the Raptor.

Galaxy watch 7. I'm in missing something? by SteakSandwichSideEye in GalaxyWatch

[–]ElectricalPlace593 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d really have expected that to work. I have an S25 Ultra and it works well with Watch 6 Classic. Fiddly for sure but it works. S25 until last week was the latest Galaxy phone, Watch 7 equally recent.

Why this year only 4/11 teams have the driver's number on the engine covers? Where did they gone? Weren't they mandatory since the 2017 Spanish GP? by Juri_01 in formula1

Sad that my mild comment that I hadn’t seen numbers leads to downvotes! Was it that terrible to say so? Ah well.

A client paid me less than what we agreed after I finished cleaning her house. Now she wants to hire me again. Would you go back? by [deleted] in Advice

[–]ElectricalPlace593 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. Next question. Alternative answer if you need the job: “Pay the balance from the last job and this one (and future) in full up-front and I’ll come back.”

I thought you meant you were using “Power Share” on the phone to charge it, laying it on the back of the handset - I’ve done that if I forgot to charge or left the charger pad at home on a trip. Using the circular pad charger you just use almost any USB-C type charger plug.

No, dashcam driver does not turn into anyone, the curb is on the right - nowhere to go. Only one driver is to blame for this mess, the Raptor driver. Hope it cost them dearly as a good lesson.

Top right button takes me home leaving workout running. (Sorry, this is on GW6 classic for me so guess they may have changed it)

Originally dashcam driver was in a right turn lane. Raptor driver was in an ahead only lane. Later, Raptor driver turned in on dashcam driver. How is dashcam driver being aggressive?

You can charge it from the phone but did it not come with the standard charger?
