Thank you, the image addition tabs don't seem to be working for me... or just my inability to use them properly

Want.

Well the 80k service was done and dusted today and all good, car is running great.
Had a nice 20 plate Macan to play around with for the morning, despite only being the 2.0 litre petrol it was surprisingly quick!

They’re decently quick until you hit motorway speeds. I’ve always been a little surprised by the 4cyl Macan’s.

Same with any 4cyl even when turbo'd.

Time to downsize to one car, not sure what to get though - needs to be big enough for my drums but not too big that the mrs will be terrified of driving it, so an RS6 is out of the question!

Macan ticks the boxes but not sure I wanted to follow the SUV crowd!

Yup, today looks perfect!

This was delivered on 'lockdown day' and FINALLY had its first outing on Friday!

Even with idiot me driving it's an improvement from the .1 in every way except the noise, until you get up in the rev range anyway.

Bradmax57 · 13 Jun 2020 at 23:10

@Bradmax57 is that a Democratic people's Republic of North Tyneside permit I see there?

You've clearly strayed too far away so they sent one of their elite birds to return you to them north Korea style.

Ha well spotted

fortunately its only £75 screen excess but cant get it done for a week and half at the earliest, providing its fitted properly i'm actually quite please as there were quite a few very small pits all over the screen with the age the car is
