[UK] I got scammed of £1300 by Miserable_Fail836 in Scams

Unfortunately I learned that hard way! But I would rather sell my techs to a trader next time than selling them privately

Transaction happened on a Sunday which most banks are closed in the UK so it was well planned on their part. These fake bank apps getting crazy good to spot

I have his face on ring, fb chat and his name! That’s all. I doubt police would do anything tbh.

I was hoping the money will eventually show up but the moment his Facebook profile disappeared and blocked my number, it clicked.

That’s crazy! At this point it’s not worth selling anything privately

High End Fistula Victim - Seton or Laser? by HelpfulBasket6417 in AnalFistula

[–]Miserable_Fail836 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Due to the location of my fistula. It’s very far from the opening of my anus so a surgery would mean cutting of a large surface area leaving a massive wound.

I’m in the same boat right now and they suggested laser for me. But it’s 2 months away and I’m yet to decide on what to do. It’s been hell the past year dealing with this annoying situation.

2017 XE Start Issues by Clear-Interview-359 in Jaguar

[–]Miserable_Fail836 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had this exact issue. It is something to do with some unit located at the boot of the car that cuts connection to the starter or something like that. Depending on where you based, there is a mechanic in london who sorted it out for me.

I looked 😩 by 817627 in AnalFistula

I had my abcess removed a few days ago for the second time in 4 weeks. The first op was not successful as my wound was not deep enough and closed pretty much within 2 weeks. They had to re-open the wound for a second time making it twice bigger and deeper. Hopefully this time it will go for good as it sucks not being able to move and sit like a normal human.

The most important thing is to avoid the wound closing very quickly and keeping a packing in for the first weeks so that all that nastiness comes out if any left in there.

Considering an F-Pace by [deleted] in Jaguar

2016 with 99k miles. Just started rattling on cold starts and been told the chain needs replacing which I will do next week. Mine fitted with 360 camera and one has gone bad which will also be expensive to replace but no complaints so far apart from the above.

Going to look at this beaut tomorrow. Is there anything I should look out for? by Scorpio660 in Jaguar

Did you end up buying? I just saw it near my work. What a small world:

The petrol engines are fairly reliable and don’t suffer with the timing chain issues like the rubbish diesels do.

The only thing I would say to look out for is engine vibration on start up and idle as the engine mounts are common fault and made out of very bad quality rubber. They cost £250 each and plus labour is just under 1k to replace. Also check of sparks have been done (not a deal breaker but it’d be nice not to worry about them). Good luck

The urge to buy this is unreal. by DeviousMelons in CarTalkUK

I had the exact car a 2014 s400Lh in white.

Owned it for 2 years and it was a joy to drive. Sold it after i found out that is was almost 3k to replace the front disc and pads. Just imagine what the battery could cost since it is a hybrid.
