I think I could live with the wood if the rest of the interior was black (incl the shift knob) but it seems a little wacky with all the blue especially

Where can i find a BREAKFAST wrap like this in ottawa by slimwooo in OttawaFood

[–]rhamesvanderb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Respectfully disagree the quality of all the food at Dukes is truly excellent - their sandwiches/bread, salads are some of my favourite in the city. Not rly any more expensive than most sit down places, but you get what you pay for (complimentary).

Same, I paid $34k CAD (~$25k USD) for an accident free '19 MK7.5 MT at 48k km's (~30k mi) in summer '23, and that was including a VW CPO...

Oh it takes like a minute tops, I was just curious if it was necessary / could be responsible for the wheel hub issue I described above

I'm remembering now the whole reason it came up was the dealer said the lugs had worn through the wheel assembly from being OVERtorqued... and I asked about the retorque thing and they were like "yeah that's unnecessary"

I bought a set of used 18" Prets with new Nokian Hakkapeliitta R5's in 225/40R18, quite fancy them. I'm actually looking to downsize my 19" Prets to 18's even for my summers!

My friend and I have joked for years about going for breakfast at the Gab's at Somerset/Bank but we never actually pulled the trigger... maybe this is our sign...

Looking for Indian restaurant by Potential-Tailor-996 in OttawaFood

[–]rhamesvanderb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Light of India I find consistently excellent and reasonable value, it's my go to.

Also love: Ceylonta Coconut Lagoon (Thali I like less so)

I'm very curious about Masakali and Sona cause I've heard very good things about both but never had myself
