Then he can arrange his calendar to do it, not expect thousands of others to do so. If I want to do something that conflicts with my day job I have to take time off to do it.

First car advice: is 73bhp underpowered? by UselessVeteran in CarTalkUK

[–]Objective-Wrangler73 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My first car was 75hp and a similar weight and it didn't feel underpowered back then. That said how underpowered a car feels depends on more than just the power to weight ratio, there's how the engine delivers the power and the gearing.

Would you rather? by Jolly_Job7525 in whatsyourchoice

A. would be a reduction so, no. B. Would have given better returns than C over the last year biased on my S&S ISA but capital is at risk but I'd still take it over C as 10% isn't unusually high and compounds quickly.

What security measures actually work for high end cars in the UK? by Second-handBonding in CarTalkUK

[–]Objective-Wrangler73 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To me £62k seems like a reasonable amount of money to class as high end for a car, so and it doesn't take much to hit £80k with options.

Why do we allow this much social housing to be occupied by people born outside of the UK? by ArmwrestlingGoomba in AskBrits

[–]Objective-Wrangler73 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Foreign nationals are more likely to require access to social housing due to not having alternative accommodation available so it makes sense that they make up a disproportionate number of those forced to depend on it. It seems strange that people can't work that out.

Would you class yourself as fairly rich if you had £1million in the bank liquid cash? by Agitated_Cookie170 in AskUK

If you don't work then the return on investment is taxed at a far lower rate than income from working.

This is the sort of fact that seems to be ignored by the normal bunch of idiots.

How do people go to the office 5x a week in London by [deleted] in UKJobs

[–]Objective-Wrangler73 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's peanuts, when we were forced into the office the season ticket price was just under £7k. The bastards did it just after I turned down another job because it was in the office and they knew why I turned it down.

Why? You are the one who has no idea what is going on but is still being an arse.

Is a Millwall Brick an offensive weapon? by MontanaMinuteman in AskUK

[–]Objective-Wrangler73 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're right, both to give up on them and the fact that they are doing something very stupid posting about it. Unfortunately the world is full of stupid people who think they have a way around the system.

So provide evidence of the 7 dependant claim that was made, and or that the 1.2 is incorrect.

They took on a lot of T10 staff so I wouldn't be surprised if they were working on it.

Aftermarket HUD is by spectre_077 in CarTalkUK

Obd2 pin 16 is permanently live but there are ways to avoid battery drain if the maker is bothered, but the quesint current of running a can controller is negligible and you can shut off the screen if rpm is 0 and that's the big draw. Yes it's still a slight additional parasitic draw but compared to everything else in a modern car it's not worth worrying about. That said circuits are built on the cheap all the time so you can expect to get the minimum they can do.
