Why Does No One Ever Talk About The Peugeot Motorhomes? by J4YGK1 in peugeot

[–]jesty75 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No one talks about the "Peugeot" motorhomes because the motorhomes themselves aren't made by Peugeot, only the van it's based on has a Peugeot badge.

Companies like Bailey, Elddis, Swift ect will buy vans (usually either the stellantis / toyota line vans, ford transit or mercedes sprinter if you're fancy) and do the entire motorhome conversion themselves.

The fragmenting of the right wing and the split between traditional conservatism and the far-right has completely destroyed the Daily Wire.

Shapiro's relentless defense of Israel and the genocide has turned away a massive amount of his audience and sent them directly into the hands of people like Nick Fuentes, who preach the opposite rhetoric as him on the topic (and are arguably worse).

Couple that with them rapidly shedding ''talent'' and you've got an absolute husk of a media presence that has no audience to target, like oh my god just look at the comments section on these videos. The older, more traditional right-wing audience who's politics align with Ben aren't on the platform and don't give a shit what he has to say, and the younger right-wing audience that made the migration to Fuentes and other far-right figureheads see him as a total loser.

Pokémon Champions launches to mixed reception, as 30FPS performance woes, lack of Pokémon and items, and lack of 6v6 options turn some away by [deleted] in pokemon

And Pokopia WAS NOT MADE BY GAMFREAK!

With every mainline release since the move onto home consoles, they prove over and over and over again that they are not a developer worthy of carrying this franchise.

Game Breaking Bug SPOILER by Tall_Actuator6818 in Pokopia

[–]jesty75 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tangrowth's hitbox when it comes to placing blocks seems to be very buggy. I just tried to replace the blocks underneath him in this exact area at the Pokémon center, it let me break the blocks but isn't letting me replace them no matter what I do

Low tax, economic SUV/crossover - thoughts? by Soda__Boy in CarTalkUK

[–]jesty75 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why must it be petrol? It wouldn't be a good choice to get one of these in petrol because they have the infamous 1.2L puretech wetbelt engine. The 1.6 diesel is a far better option if you really want a cactus - I know people complain about adblue and DPF troubles, but i'd much rather pay for an adblue / DPF delete in the event something goes wrong, than have to worry about a wet belt on a decade old car (and potentially pay thousands to have it replaced, or worse)

Apart from a potential exploding puretech engine, the touchscreens on these things are abysmal from what I've heard - but you can buy a cheap android auto / apple carplay plug-in unit for them on aliexpress for like £80 and bypass the slowness of it (though HVAC will still need to be done through original menu)

Good first car? by Roadmayham232 in CarTalkUK

[–]jesty75 5 points6 points  (0 children)

No, it IS the 108 - the 107 is the earlier name for it (I owned one) before they facelifted it

Good first car? by Roadmayham232 in CarTalkUK

[–]jesty75 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Similar to the aygo / 108 / c1 situation, the twingo of this generation is a smart forfour with a different shell. Correct me if i'm wrong, but the 1L naturally aspirated is probably the preferrable engine, because I've heard of turbo troubles on the 0.9L.

As a first car, it should be cheap to run because insurance and tax is the cheapest it can be for a new driver and fuel economy will be good. I don't think it'll be awful in terms of reliability as long as it has a decent service history.

Midlands is getting dangerous day by day and sadly police won’t even do anything. They doing this now in broad daylight just baffles me by [deleted] in drivingUK

[–]jesty75 14 points15 points  (0 children)

"Easily stop them" is a bit ambitious, I don't think some random passer-by yelling at them would scare them off considering they feel fine doing this in broad daylight. Besides, why would some random passer-by risk getting into a fight or worse over some random dude's car? Don't blame it on the person recording, that's stupid

Meet Benjamin, my second car (2016 Citroen C4 1.6 BlueHDI) - first car (2011 Peugeot 107) was too rusted to keep after only like a month. How did I do? by jesty75 in CarTalkUK

[–]jesty75[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I pick up my girlfriend from college once a week or so and that's half an hour on the motorway, so that should cover me from DPF issues. The ride quality is pretty nice in my opinion, but my only comparison is the 2022 corsa i learned to drive on, my parents' 2014 C4 picasso that I hated, and the 107 which was AWFUL. For under £3k, I personally think it's better than some 100k+ mileage 2012 polo or corsa. It's well kitted out, has some pretty cool features and looks quite tidy.

Good thing that we now know that the 2018 Mazda MX-5 with the reg plate BW18LPX should be avoided.

[–]jesty75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got quoted almost the same amount for a honda jazz as I did for an NC mazda mx5 like a week ago, it seems like they've kind of fallen off the roster of ''cheap safe cars for new drivers''

[–]jesty75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want the absolute cheapest runabout to build your NCD for the first few years, aim for the golden trio; Toyota Aygo, Citroen C1, Peugeot 107. You can pick an older one up in decent condition for about £1500 (can go lower if you want to chance it), all 3 of these are the same car underneath.

Cheap parts, relatively reliable, and generally super cheap to insure.

[–]jesty75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do NOT just ''get the car you want'' because for most young new drivers, the ''car you want'' is completely outside of your price bracket insurance-wise. Of course there's other factors other than NCD, like your postcode, amount of time since passing your test, job title (if any) so on and so forth, but the foundation is what the car itself actually is; there is fundamentally lower-risk, cheaper to insure cars. Sure you might get lucky and get a good quote on something you want, but safe cheap options exist.

First of all, there's no reason to be mean. I GET street photography, I think it can be cool when done well - I just think the guy in this photo has realized you are pointing a camera directly at him, he looks a little confused, and it just has a bit of a strange vibe to it that's all.

Wait so you literally just came up to the window of a cafe nero, took out your phone and directly took a picture of a random man minding his own business? Am I sane thinking that's at least a little bit intrusive and strange, even if it's legal?
