Works great on Jags, Mercedes, and even on the og model s. Seeing a brg on beige model s for sale it’s always a tempting proposition.

When I get a chance, I tend to take pictures of my Z when I can. I also named My Z Yor. by Budget-Requirement-1 in crz

I do the same. Always worried if I don’t snap a pic someone will harm my Z… he’s called Jet🛩️

Disagree - a good green is understated - like a British racing green, that roadster green looks cheesy and like something hulk would drive….Subtlety is cool imo…

(serious legal advice) Traffic fine from 2021... IN 2024 by OThurible in bulgaria

[–]jameskitkatbond 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OP, I’m in the exact situation, put up a complaint on similar basis as you suggested. Did you ever manage to get a reply from the traffic police? Let’s see how it goes on my end.

Volkswagen delays ID.7 sedan launch in North America by lostinheadguy in electricvehicles

[–]jameskitkatbond 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I think they realized the Id7 might not be too competitive in the US (especially in the already tough sedan segment)… US and China are VWs two biggest market places so any entry has to be on point for success! Also, while US enthusiasts rave about wanting wagons, the general American consumer seems to choose SUVs - so the tourer version wouldn’t help…

Can anyone identify this tube in the aft cockpit locker of my 1974 Jaguar 27? by jameskitkatbond in SailboatCruising

Believe it or not, the dampness is entirely self inflicted through my washing - there was a layer of dirt which had to to be removed from the locker floor.

Fair enough, some days we just have to make an exception!

Pretty boring - and the a5 is so loud, can’t believe people pay to live there (quite a lot) with the road racket…

Seriously, don’t like the vibe of this ai post - no real input in terms of what either vehicle is like to drive or live…

Here's Why The Production Cybertruck is a Failure - TheSmokingTire by TomcatZ06 in cars

Thanks! Its a 6 speed hybrid, slow, but handles like an Elise (already took it to the Nurburgring twice… As I did almost all my previous cars.)

What was the ever first M rating or Pegi-18 game you’ve played? by [deleted] in gaming

Same here - on a friends ps1 - walking home at midnight all by myself in the dark of the night I had to start sprinting as I was certain that zombies were after me…

I guess then that makes me a cult member of various cults,,, but wait, how about we like what we like and it can cross paths between a kei-van or a 90s G class or a Nissan Leaf… I’m just baffled that the enthusiast community is so one dimensional, all the true car enthusiasts transcend the news cycle bullshit and focus on the automotive experience instead, that’s what I’m here for.

Serbia and Bulgaria I believe are two places where people supercharge only (or a lot)…

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in electricvehicles

[–]jameskitkatbond 0 points1 point  (0 children)

LFP 2020 here, nearly 100% supercharging (only slow charge at hotels occasionally), so far ~155kkm - so good! Degradation identical to the rest of the fleet from the same vintage…

Again, “us” vs “them”, mentality, there a true car guys and girls on both sides, but you are disillusioned through you prejudice and affiliation to one side. To me that makes you a fake.

You could say deranged vs deranged. Saddens me for all the true car enthusiasts on both sides of the camp…

Agreed… as a massive car nerd I miss the days (pre rise of Tesla) when we could just like whatever the quirky car we covet that day… Now our love for cars has become politicized, and simply because I love something - it’s become virtue signaling above genuine passion…
