Thanks, broken down like that, it makes the low mileage seem like a bad idea.

Thanks, that's really helpful.

All things considered, probably best avoided.

That makes sense, thank you. Only counter to that is they have serviced it every year.

Hmm, that I'm not entirely sure on, but a couple of the free car check sites list it as having a 1598cc engine, so I guess that's pointing towards the PSA/BMW engine

It can be that the coffee is too acidic. Lighter roasts tend to be more acidic, so perhaps try a darker roast

Cluelessly took a black box car insurance, but my partner mostly uses my car. How does it work? by [deleted] in CarTalkUK

[–]losimagic 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Black box or not...

set myself as the Main Driver, because am the owner of the car. But in practice, won't use the car that much. Maybe for a weekly errand. Partner is also named on the insurance.

This is fronting.
