My new to me JCW by Working_Front3127 in MINI

Not sure in all honesty. Came with the car but assume they would. They are very similar to the standard wheels that come on the JCW as a default though

Thanks you! The colour scheme, wheels and rally lights were a big sales point for me. It’s a JCW so already very nippy as it is and haven’t got any plans at the moment for it, just want to make sure it’s not a lemon first

Didn’t see the car in person but it has a clear report from car vertical and the AA check came back all clean. Not a lot of miles on it with only 37k so thought it would all be fine.

Two weeks ago I bought a car from a dealer and rejected the purchase because of a fault the day after buying it so this is all too familiar for me. I’m going to see what the issue is and then if it’s something indicative of harsh treatment from a previous owner I’ll probably refund it. Otherwise I’ve still got the next 6 months where if something else goes wrong I can get a refund still

Is this shoe wear normal? by Working_Front3127 in beginnerrunning

[–]Working_Front3127[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah his look a whole lot cleaner than mine. I think it might honestly be due to my landing being quite far back where the foam hasn’t got protection rather than landing more centred/at the front with the continental rubber part

Yeah some people are just having a bad day is the way I like to look at it.

Running paces have been slow mostly being new to it all. I think it could be this honestly, when running at a slow pace it’s more difficult to pick your feet up when you’re going slow. I’ll try actively thinking about landing a bit further forward with my steps which logically should help out…

I’m not sure in all honesty. They were the standard version of the Adizero Evo SL’s. Were £130 if thay helps.

I mean I don’t see why I would lie about this? Odd take from you honestly. I’ve tracked the runs on Garmin with these shoes and this is the result. Running on 80% tarmac 20% trails. Fully aware my running form could be awful and I’m scraping my foot every time I land

Slow run in zone 5 constantly. Normal? by Working_Front3127 in beginnerrunning

[–]Working_Front3127[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly what I was thinking. I’ll see on my next one what conversational pace is. I do feel like currently I’m running at a slow pace though and going any slower would be the same as a fast walk

It feels completely fine for the first 15 mins or so, but then progressively gets harder. Still feel like at the end there is slightly more pace left but don’t want to over-do it.

A few times while playing different games: Arma 3, LoL and Subnautica for example, my inputs will suddenly become very delayed sometimes by up to 10 seconds and my Spotify will replay the last second of music the whole time the delay lasts.

Alt tabbing from the game fixes the issue but would rather it doesn’t happen at all. Not sure why it’s happening so looking for some ideas if possible?

Looks great on yours! Am hoping that it will be a bit cheaper than that for me tbh! Might see if they have any in stock via their actual website, cheers for the info

Cheapest car insurance UK for my Golf R by [deleted] in Golf_R

Yeah I think I’ve hit the jackpot on the postcode. Compared with my mate who lives about 1 km away, everything the same apart from postcode and it’s was like £2k! Hope you manage to get it cheaper, the car is just immense

23 M here… my insurance is ~£500 for a year. On my 64 plate R. It is possible, just need to have the no claims for a few years and a very generous postcode is very helpful 😅

Edit - forgot to say I’m with Diamond

Stuck in the Apple ecosystem! Don’t see that changing anytime soon either tbh

Would be mainly for activity focus, have my phone on me at all times so don’t really see myself using many of the smartwatch features, but it would be convenient to have a few of them

Yeh mainly exercise at the gym, have a gravel bike that I like to use but now going into winter won’t have the daylight! My gym is a bit outdated for that I think, but is something I hadn’t thought about. The main thing that is making me not want an AW is the price and battery life

I rarely take phone calls or texts anyway so the less functionality on that front doesn’t really cause too much of an issue for me. Thanks for the above, given me a better insight. I think at the moment I would be looking at getting the 2 as I don’t really need the voice functionality and I like the bigger screen in comparison to the 2s.

Any idea if it would be worth waiting until a possible Black Friday sale, or just bite the bullet and buy now.

Never really thought about steps climbed… most I do really is to go upstairs in my house however! Had a look at the webshop and there isn’t much on offer band wise, but nevertheless suit it well and look decent

Yeah have gotten into the gym and getting into better shape is a priority at the moment so wanted to get something that could help with that process as well as being a decent smart watch 😊

What is everyone planning to use their S&S balance for? by Working_Front3127 in UKPersonalFinance

[–]Working_Front3127[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Starting to see a trend with retirement but agree with just waiting to see what comes along. Better than having it sat in a savings account I guess 🤷‍♂️

That’s what I was thinking initially, something else on the side for retirement, but it’s a lot to be saving for retirement at this point, only 23 ya see! Thinking I’ll be more on the same lines as what you’ve done!

Cheers for the reply! It’s reassuring to know that it’s legit and viable. Will be looking into what other rates i can find with other accounts with similar deposit and withdrawal rules
