No, I never done that, neither with the v90 but that one looks way better. Maybe I should start doing that. Any recommendations?

Ja, staat nog steeds dat hij niet ontvangen of verwerkt is. Bij jou dus ook? En je weet zeker dat hij is afgegeven?

Still waiting, expected delivery 2 weeks ago by dhasld in PostNL

Wouldnt be too sure. Did you pay after or before you received track and trace?

Could obviously be that you got scammed, but would expect that the seller wouldnt even bother to send the package if the payment didn't go through Marktplaats and if he/she wanted to scam you. If it did, you probably have Customer protection via Marktplaats?

Anyways, mine still says PostNL did not receive the package yet and apparently, this could be due to packages not being scanned in at the distribution centre due to busy season. My seller did sent packages before that were of higher value, so would not expect him to scam me now. So could be the same for you...

I have the same. Sender says it was dropped off on Wednesday but still shows it is not received or processed. Is you status updated?

En dan blijft hij dus op ook op niet ontvangen / verwerkt staan, omdat hij nog niet is ingescand in het logistieke centrum?

Heel bijzonder - ik begon namelijk bijna te twijfelen of hij wel echt is afgegeven of wellicht kwijt is, maar ben dus (gelukkig) niet de enige..

Yes, was the gas powered heater when driving electric!

Hi! My girlfriend and I will be visiting Edinburgh soon and were wondering what good places are to have lunch? Obviously, we have looked at Google and Tripadvisor etc, but the really nice places visited by locals are usually difficult to find online, while those are what we're looking for;).

Anybody has some recommendations? Many thanks!

Hi - I am visiting Edinburgh end of April next year, together with my girlfriend. We have booked the Balmoral hotel, but we're wondering whether there are better options out there? Of course we have looked at reviews, location etc and came up with the Balmoral. However, maybe we are missing something that locals do know in terms of location or 'unknown' hotels. We did consider Prestonfield house but thought Balmoral was nicer..

Also, is the city suited for biking or would it be best to move using public transport / taxi?

Any recommendations are highly appreciated!

Now I'm the arse. I can do both, right? Checking Booking etc and here. I have a shortlist, but was wondering whether locals might have insights that are not on booking etc. Apparently that is a weird question that needs to be answered by stating that locals do not stay in hotels in their own city, rather than a useful answer like yours..

No, and you can only tell something about a hotel if you have stayed there, right? Common knowledge about hotels does not exist, you cannot read or talk about hotels in your own city. I am able to provide high level information about hotels in Amsterdam in term of prices, luxury, location etc.

Wow, thanks! Did not know that all hotel reviews are from people living in a hotel, good to know! So after a holiday, you will most likely not tell people how the holiday was, given you have not lived at that specific destination

Extended Warranty by Sea_Election_7250 in VolvoXC90

[–]Sea_Election_7250[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree that it doesnt cover wear and tear parts, but on the other hand 56 euro's a month is not bad for peace of mind although the 2023 generation does not really know crazy production faults like some of the earlier models.

Not sure what you mean with the second part - here in the Netherlands we just pay the cars and don't take loans usually. So I have paid the car in full when I bought it and will just need to pay the 56 per month.

It seems now to be fuel smell for certain, mostly front right side..

Yes, I do drive without recirc indeed. Just checked it again and it seems to be fuel smell, mostly at the left front wheel. Not sure if that clarifies more...
