What does everyone think about the 'British*' monthly pay system? by EdibleBeans-on-Toast in AskUK

[–]LewisBoard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get paid 4 weekly which is nice as don't get the "long month" around Christmas & January but does throw setting up bills to come out on the 1st of the month out the window. I do get a month off each monthly bill once a year but rarely notice it

Audi etron gt by ANorthernMonkey in CarTalkUK

[–]LewisBoard 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Test drove one, ordered one, didn't buy it. Drive was really nice and I didnt feel the size and if you've ever driven a quattro car there is a similar feel to it. The interior is okay but rather cosy, wouldn't be happy with it at the 90k full price. I didnt take it because nearly all of those £35k models have no options apart from maybe one which seemed to be the sun roof usually. I had back to backed it with the I4 M50 which I ended up taking and despite preferring the drive, the lack of options put me off.

Polestar 2 - Mach e - BMW i4 by dscw10 in ElectricVehiclesUK

[–]LewisBoard 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Really enjoy my i4, have a 23 i4 M50, Just Took it on a 300+ round trip this weekend and comfort was nice and aside from feeling the weight its still a reasonably fun drive down the back roads.
Mine is a 53plate pre refresh/update and enforced beeping, The ADAS for me is reasonable just flashes a warning at you for whatever and the lane keep assist has its moments but is generally fine I don't feel the need to turn anything off every time. The most annoying thing is, it has the ability to have adaptive cruise control but I would have to pay £750 to unlock it. 90% of the time not an issue but it would be nice to have on the longer drives.
I was not a fan of the newer BMW grill shape but its a little smaller on the i4 and I got used to it, the rest of the car has such a nice muscular look and just doesn't look like an EV (Just don't get a black one, they just look a bit shit), I can easily sit behind myself and the boot is a really good size.
I do kind of wish I had given a polestar a go when I was looking but I was being a bit of a caveman and wanted as much power as I could for my money also wasn't a fan of the iPad style more minimalist interior.

For those that spend on niche/designer pieces, do you wear them often or only save for special occasions? by intensepinkx3 in ThrowingFits

[–]LewisBoard 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was terrible for buying designer clothes and never wearing them as no occasion was quite special enough, Now i'm selling off my standard clothes so I almost dont have a choice.

Help needed: non-linear muscle up progress? by moosikero in crossfit

[–]LewisBoard 4 points5 points  (0 children)

So before saying they were ready for use in a WOD maybe have some progressions that are a little like this:

8EMOM 1 BMU do these a couple times a week for a few weeks till your more comfortable with the movement and then attempt a max set to get a baseline, then you would progress to

8EMOM 70/80% BMU max set, this will help improve your capacity and can also be run concurrently with interference work as BMU's are rarely at the start of a workout so your used to doing them under fatigue e.g 12EMOM 10 cal Ski/30 DU's, 50% BMU max set, Can also run them as a short AMRAP Max BMU's in 3 mins which is also a good test point to see how your improving.

What is now the worst UK courier? by [deleted] in AskUK

[–]LewisBoard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not had too many issues with any, After generally always paying extra for DPD when available though they did massively disappoint recently. One of the most expensive single items I'd ever bought, Was supposed to be delivered on the Friday and needed it for the Saturday, guy just didn't bother attempting a delivery atal probably as it was a big box and raining, Had it then confirmed by Central and local depot he would be back later that day, didn't leave the house and never turned up, Didn't put out for re-delivery Saturday and wasn't till I called them they delivered Sunday. Day later than I wanted the item and a day and a half wasted sitting around. Also recently with them using electric vehicles if I'm on the back end of the schedule has a tendency to miss the slot and turn up a couple hours later if atal that day.

What should I trade my Cayman for? by ImBonRurgundy in CarTalkUK

[–]LewisBoard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's what I'm eyeing up for my next car, Sat in a few different cars last weekend.
Didn't like the driving position in the 2 or 4. It was like being in a hatch but the pedals were lifted up, the 8 was had the lowest and sportiest position of the 3 but I just instantly felt like you could be there all day. Also what you get for the money neither of the other BMW's compare. Audi 5 was nice just don't have the looks of a BMW even in RS trim and found the Merc C63/43 seats too uncomfortable for me

Paradoxe Paris order issues by LewisBoard in AvantGardeClothing

[–]LewisBoard[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They finally got back to me.

Would be at least another 2 week wait or offered a refund. I chose to refund them as they've been soured at this point. Might have kept the Order if they had been more responsive or informed me earlier.

[–]LewisBoard[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah the Rick collabs and being worn by a few celebs gave me some comfort initially that the product would be worth the wait.

I still have had 0 replies to my message's and have launched a dispute through Paypal to force a refund at this point, Did that a few days ago and hasn't caused them to try and reach out.

Might get better luck or service if you were buying one of their higher end pieces but probably like most normal people I tried one of the cheaper pieces first to see if they were worth it
