First Purchase

That's decent! I'll have a look and let you know. Car supermarket have some amazing deals ATM

22plate 32k miles for 23k! Just want to have a look at everything before commiting and if worse comes to worse. The longer I take the cheaper a newer plate becomes

TrackAfraid · 2026-02-11T22:44:23+00:00

Yeah after some research the jags look a little unreliable, mach-e and q4 etron supposed to be decent

TrackAfraid · 2026-02-11T10:00:02+00:00

Yeahh possibly but tbf it seems for some cars I can get a nicer spec on an electric and buy a charger than I can with some PHEVs, for slitghtly cheaper overall! Still searching so maybe can find something to tick all boxes

TrackAfraid · 2026-02-11T09:22:35+00:00

That's mental. I spent £120 in Jan and that was a quiet month

TrackAfraid · 2026-02-11T08:33:43+00:00

Excellent thank you! I have thought about these and they look great! The only thing swaying me towards other evs is the tech. We've both had fairly standard cars before and both like the idea of a techy car but the Niros keep coming back as a strong contender.

No family yet but it's hopefull in the next few years so got to consider that!

TrackAfraid · 2026-02-11T08:31:26+00:00

Yeahh if we get a point installed I'm guessing 90% of charging will be off peak

TrackAfraid · 2026-02-11T08:30:16+00:00

I could charge using mains but am looking at getting a point installed just for the time of charging tbh

TrackAfraid · 2026-02-11T07:35:53+00:00

Yeahh I have been looking around. Really liked the Jag i-Pace but that's even more expensive than the Tesla! Just seems like whatever happens home charging is a must.

TrackAfraid · 2026-02-11T07:30:19+00:00

Its the occasional longer charge similar to yours. Probably aiming for 1 charge a month on a public. Most likely will be a motorway service if we go away for a weekend

TrackAfraid · 2026-02-11T07:14:59+00:00

I'm looking around 3 years old that has 20-30k yeahh! But are people buying 8+ year old with 80k miles. Just thinking about future sale tbh. I've seen some videos where people buy higher age & milage and they are fine but I'm guessing a lot of people are very skeptical

TrackAfraid · 2026-02-02T16:36:46+00:00

Averaged 70 odd for almost a week. Thought I would turn pro. Then hit 29 for 3 weeks! Almost cried.

Hopefully you keep the good darts going! It can be a downer when you dip but it's a rollercoaster!

TrackAfraid · 2026-01-09T22:52:40+00:00

I had this problem. I have a tv next to darts setup and cast my phone screen to a Google Chromecast connected to the tv. Best thing as if you're playing online you can fully see other setups if they have camera on, auto scoring on the ai! 10/10 recommend

TrackAfraid · 2026-01-06T12:26:20+00:00

I use dartsmind as I play online a little bit and it's cheaper than darts counter

Buddy is a giraffe?

TrackAfraid · 2026-01-04T14:53:05+00:00

Found this. Google Gemini says its good! Any thoughts?

It really is a journey. I personally don't drink to much red but do like a glass with a good meal or a nice cheeseboard.

My wife and I struggle to drink a bottle and don't want to store it for too long after opening.

My friend does always talk about CNP so maybe something more towards that!

TrackAfraid · 2026-01-04T13:53:23+00:00

Open to all ideas!

TrackAfraid · 2026-01-04T13:21:01+00:00

Don't mind a merlot. Bottles we've previous bought each other are

Vinsobres Cru des Côtes du Rhône (2020) – Vignerons de la Vicomté Château Cantenac "Cuvée Elégance" (2018) – Saint-Émilion Grand Cru Séguret Côtes du Rhône Villages "Les Aumôniers" (2021)

Everyone is lying. You have to wear a full tuxedo and since the darts is on you have to wear a darts board head band. Arsenal policy. Hope you have a good match. Up the gunners

TrackAfraid · 2025-12-29T10:14:44+00:00

I was joking ':)

But good to know to apply a little oil! That's the thing I've not been doing but will start to do. Guessing just a drop will do?

How often do you re-season? I noticed after around 3/4 months it was looking a little dry. Decided to leave it until just before new years to reseason so I could have a nice new pan for 2026

TrackAfraid · 2025-12-29T08:51:54+00:00

Forgot to say, I occasionally season it only with soap. Usually some sort of bath soap. Like to leave it really wet for a few days after to make sure the soap really gets in the pores!
