    When are you going fully electric?

    Thanks for the write up and comparison. Pretty much what I thought to be honest, springs good but air better lol. You're right about the parking stance, it sits a tad bit high and doesn't look sporty at all to be honest! Mines an ex Arval lease and so far it's been spot on perfect, thankfully!

    When are you going fully electric?

    Nice! I'm guessing you like IPaces then? :D I probably shouldn't ask this but have you had them all with air suspension? If not, how did you prefer the springs over air? I keep thinking I should have waited out for a model with air!

    Massive Car insurance costs?

    Some people prefer not to have them break into the house looking for the key and woukd rather the car gets stolen. I keep mine in a pouch and I'm ready to windmill anyone that tries to take them. :cool:

    Strongest plasterboard fixing?

    Just watched and when I last researched this years ago (10, as I needed to refix a radiator that had pulled off the wall when we bought our ex rented house) the GripIts were the best. I'd never expect them to hold 90kg, but how do they rate them at 90kg when they only do a third?! Is there an...

    That reminds me of a Mickey Mouse watch! (Or a Mickey Head watch) (edit: But obv way more expensive!) :D

    Finally, we're getting FTTP, woo-hoo!

    Well that's an improvement on December 2026! :cry:

    I've never owned a dishwasher (I am the dishwasher!) but this sounds like a brilliant idea! If I'm ever single again then I'll chop out a cupboard to fit a second one in! :cry:

    When are you going fully electric?

    I think I've got the same ones, bought 2 for my car and 2 for the girlfriend. One is in the door holder and the other is in the glovebox but might move to the centre console. You don't want it flying around the car if you roll as you'll not find it!

    Mortgage Rate Rises

    Or to see it as a glass half full perspective, just think about the money saved while the rates were low. (As my girlfriend would remind me, I'm completely a glass half empty point of view!)

    Bought this phone on eBay, does this look like "brand new condition not a scratch on the phone…" to you?

    I've seen ones where people have put "Bought, but never used" in the description so when I ask if they bought it from a shop or Ebay they usually reply with "yeah it was from Ebay a few months ago but I've never used it". How I understand that is 'yeah you might not have used it but the previous...

    Diagnosis makes no sense

    My vectra would have a heating blip every now and again and just knocking the heating knob down a touch and then back up to full would get the heat flowing. I put it down to a stuck flap somewhere letting more cold in than it should. As mentioned by a few posters, the water pump is definitely...

    When are you going fully electric?

    I'm guessing that you're waiting on Jaguar to sort this out for you? 6 months seems a bloody long time to be waiting though! Or have you gone over 100k miles and it's not covered any more? :(

    When are you going fully electric?

    Too much to easily comment on by phone but this doesn't look like it's burning slowly to me: https://youtu.be/oieH2wwDGzo?si=yec-44mt1tT1DabU That burns very fast and escapes from the hole that gets poked into the casing. If the chemical runaway happens with no hole it will certainly pop ala...

    When are you going fully electric?

    Someone smarter than me will have the answer but it's like saying all nuclear power is the same. But there's a massive difference between fusion and fission. The way the hydrogen is stored changes and hydrogen in a fuel cell uses chemicals that go boom like the lithium batteries do now. Unless...

    When are you going fully electric?

    I was meaning hydrogen as an ICE option, we don't want mini nukes going off everytime there's a car accident! And I didn't even say hydrogen is the better solution, just that it's gaining traction as an alternative option which is causing more apprehension for EV adoption. I think the best...

    When are you going fully electric?

    I agree with you and due to the massive depreciation on EV cars (which is great for 2nd hand buyers like me! :D) I can see why people aren't buying an EV. Most have lost 50 percent in 2 to 3 years and others have lost 2/3 their original values! New car EV prices are tanking which must eat into...

    Massive Car insurance costs?

    Not sure if you're missing a zero from that price increase or not? :p A £28 increase is pretty damn great in these circumstances!

    Thanks for confirming it's Admiral. They did seem the cheapest but they don't seem to quote when you've already got a policy with them, from what I can see. I'm not sure how I'll be able to haggle down the price next year if Admiral don't quote (or maybe they will when the policy is expiring)...

    Who are those quotes with? Cheapest I could get for the I-Pace was £847 with Admiral. Direct line and others wanted about £1700 or more!
