Because for the majority it doesn’t really warrant the spend.

I’ve had properly setup mesh in my house using Unifi stuff and I’m now using the Sky router with no noticeable issues.
I still get 60mbs in the shed across the garden and the same in the other side of the house through 60cm thick walls.

The supplied stuff just seems a lot better these days through the technology trickling down.

That's more a problem of our speeds being crap more than anything. You could get 60mbps through a coat hanger.

My favourite. Still 50 quid a bottle?

JonRGV250 · 18 Feb 2023 at 18:05

£76.50.
Sadly it’s not for me, but a present for someone else

I changed my "like" to a "sad" face in sympathy for you. I hope your friend shares !

It’s for my brothers 50th, and I’m sure I’ll be partaking in a few glasses

£76 for Lagavulin 16? Christ I’m out of touch!

Sherpa · 18 Feb 2023 at 18:35

I found it for £60 in duty free so snagged a bottle. The days of £48 are long gone for the 16yo

Yep! That was a shock for me to hear too. It wasn't a surprise though as they started to push Lagavulin 8.

Edit, my bad used a stock image

Diddums · 19 Feb 2023 at 13:08

Wow, you must have quite the photography studio at home :eek:

Took a bit of a gamble on a 2010 Volvo V60 T6 SE LUX. Seems to have paid off.

Filthy now though.

Looks ace, how much?

Bit of elbow grease and a new Volvo badge and that'll look almost new, well done

£8k

Yeah, only issues seem to be cosmetic, but there are a few. All wheels and callipers need a full refurb, new badge, fix the wobbly wing mirror, couple of small chips touched up and a proper deep clean and it’ll sorted cosmetic wise.

Not bad, I was expecting a bit less tbh but the car market is drunk AF at the moment so nothing surprises me anymore.

Being a T6 and such a high spec one, it’s priced about right compared to other V60s of its age.

It has (among other options I’ve already forgotten):
Adaptive Cruise
Heated seats
Lane assist
Blind spot detection
Cornering Xenon’s
7” Infotainment screen
Premium sound package (Dolby Pro Logic)
Electric seats with memory
