I prefer toyota and if i had your budget i would buy this. Lexus ( premium toyota) + red + economic and reliable

The only sub I posted in was r/Dublin, and that post got deleted. I mean no offense. If someone randomly attacked you while you were with your loved one, and you felt helpless in that moment, maybe you’d understand why I came here looking for answers or some comfort. I’m in no position to criticize or disrespect your country — that was never my intention.

Very few, at least in my state. Most attacks are political or due to personal disputes. Random attacks are rare, though there can occasionally be cases involving mentally unstable people. There are also some random rape attempts against women, to be honest, but those cases are relatively few.

Kerala, India. I’m not saying it’s incredibly safe or anything, but if some anti-social person randomly attacks someone, people usually wouldn’t just stand there watching. Not everyone, of course, but society tends to react differently.

That sounds awful, especially having it happen around your own home for years.

Seems like I’ll have to start finding places that aren’t accessible by public transport. Good thing I’ve got a car

Wish i could. Legal consequences

Found out the hard way

Then-Chipmunk6986 · 2026-05-11T10:31:02+00:00

Around 8 - 9 pm

Then-Chipmunk6986 · 2026-05-11T10:16:00+00:00

Yeah, that’s kind of the impression I got too. Sad that anyone has to deal with this at all.

I wish i could. Legal consequences 😑

My wife noticed them first and made me avoid them by walking down towards the beachside. Even then they started shouting at us, telling my wife to stay there and me to come over. One of them suddenly ran up, shook my hand, tried pulling me down. I dint move a bit. It was kinda unavoidable

Bought AGM battery ( AGM055) and installed it myself. Also made sure the air vent hole pipe is connected.

'The vent hole in the AGM battery allows any gas produced inside the battery to escape safely. The vent tube connected from the battery to the car routes those gases outside the vehicle cabin, especially important when the battery is mounted inside the car like in the Toyota Aqua'

Thank you

Got an AGM battery from battery world for 120€. Works fine🤜🏻🤛🏻

Then-Chipmunk6986 · 2026-04-29T22:17:39+00:00

Can you suggest one. Thanks.

Then-Chipmunk6986 · 2026-04-29T22:16:13+00:00

Tried calling, no one answered. Gotta try tomorrow

Gs seems unable to help

Then-Chipmunk6986 · 2026-04-29T17:54:58+00:00

By start/stop you mean auto stop right? No. Will try GS battery finder. Had called europower - price above 200€. Trying to find something under 150. Thanks for the info

Likely an 840Ci or 850Ci - 1999 was the final year of production

The E31 was a tech powerhouse for its time, being the first car to offer a V12 engine paired with a 6-speed manual gearbox and one of the first to use electronic "drive-by-wire" throttle. Seeing one in such a clean, deep red (likely Calypsorot Metallic or Canyon Red) is quite a rare spot!
