    Motor Legal

    One of those things you don't need till you need. I got side swiped years ago and the 3rd party just kept denying denying denying in the face of all evidence, and their insurer refused to hold them at fault. Lawyers got involved to get it resolved, evidence collection, multiple rounds of...

    Ryzen New Build

    NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080Ti to be "available" on June 3rd, RTX 3070Ti on June 10th

    You guys are in an impossible situation, I think it's good that you haven't put your 3080ti stock up to just have it taken almost entirely by bots. MM codes at the very least increases the number of people with established trust purchasing cards (yes there will unfortunately be scalpers...

    dealer damaged car during a service

    Refurbed alloys only have a 12 month warranty. So when you get white worm/corrosion on your centre cap again, they'll tell you to stuff it. Push for a replacement, their damage, their issue.

    Ex-proving ground car

    Can't speak for Ford and their torture tests but I imagine it'd be like buying a BMW that's been used on the M/X experience days. The owners forums have many post around cars at great prices which 12-18 months later the diff is wrecked, the gearbox need replaced and have had major component...

    Do any well-paid jobs exist in the UK?

    Getting a job is only half the work of getting a good wage. Your wage increasing is largely down to your ability to display your work and illustrate that to the people who pay you. You can be paid vastly more than everyone else in the room if your employer believes they are getting a good deal.

    Am I at Fault or the Lorry Driver

    Having passed my test last year I was taught HGV's on roundabouts AVOID like the plague. If i'm on the outside to one at a roundabout I'll give him a few seconds first as he will likely need to straddle exit dependent. Section 187. of the Highway Code advises that in ALL situations on round...

    Quote Me Happy, thoughts?

    AFAIK you aren't permitted to record a collision as non-fault whilst it is being disputed. As I wanted my car repaired before the end of time (when this debacle will likely be over) I have to record this as 'at fault'; whilst not an admission of fault its the only way to record it on the system...

    Quote Me Happy, thoughts?

    It's renewal time, and since getting hit by a white-van-man who's turned the claim into a super long, now legal battle I had to make a claim myself to get my car fixed, giving me a claim in my first year of driving for the tune of a couple grand. As a result admiral and your general slew of...

    BMW and M Power Owners

    So after being told y'day that the bodyshop needed ANOTHER week with my car I emailed them asking specifically why, noting that my vehicle tracker indicates that it's spend 90% of last week parked in their carpark and that since I don't have a courtesy car there is no benefit to overholding my...

    BMW and M Power Owners

    What is with BMW body-shops taking ages. Was told 5-6 days for my fender replace and respray; we're on day 8 now and Im being told the weeks end... Tracker shows that the car has spent about 95% of last week in their car park to boot. I reckon they think I have a courtesy car and are drawing...

    BMW and M Power Owners

    Pretty sure the wheels are universal(ish). You can probably buy that 16 plate then just buy a spare wheel and have it changed (either at the dealers or yourself). M-Sport wheel is pretty much mandatory IMO.

    3rd Party Insurance woes

    I'm going through exactly the same thing atm. Insurers are under zero obligation to respond to you or your insurer. So if the other driver dodges it, so will they. And your claim will go nowhere. Basically your option is to claim, lose ncb, then you've incurred a lose which your insurer is...

    Buying a BMW

    I bought a new 320i X Drive in October for considerably less than that! Looks like they're trying to sell the car with the options at 100% value. Depending on what you value the 442M wheels and blue calipers at, I don't value them at £2k. HK audio is a 700 option which dealers can typically...

    Only in unpoulated/explored space. IIRC you can just scan the Nav Beacon to get the system's data. So you can go w/o a scanner in the bubble more or less.

    BMW and M Power Owners

    Really not my day. Kerbed two wheels in two months. The first was a little 2cm nick, but this is a good 15cm score :( Infuriated doesn't even describe it :(

    *** The Official Elite: Dangerous Thread ***

    What kinda cred/h are you getting from 17 Drac? I was maxing a stack of 20 missions averaging 3-4m a mission, with a peak mission of 7.5. 20mins to board hop and 40 to get there and log and self-destruct. Roughly 50-70m/h for me. That's with fully allied missions.

    *** The Official Elite: Dangerous Thread ***

    You need a state of Civil War for 17 Draconis to work. Without internal faction conflict massacre and skimmer missions aren't given out.
