Do you have a charger at your house or parking? I know nothing about charging these things

Have a charger in the garage but you get a 3 pin house charger with the car which will charge overnight.

Most lampposts have a charger on the streets here.

You can get a home charger installed for £500 and that will charge your car to full in 7 hours.

Super chargers take 30 mins and are at almost every service station.

So how long does 3 pin take if home charger is 7 hours?

Roughly 12 but it will rarely be below 20% and 80% is enough for pretty much all regular journeys.

Leather seats and a wooden panel is about as much as there is. Just a huge screen with a whoopie cushion built in and loads of other stupid shit.

How do people with nice whips like Hugo and Mick stop the kids fucking it up? My car looks like a kebab shop floor on a Saturday night and the kids aren’t even badly behaved.

I think you can’t do much about it besides cleaning it and not giving them kebabs.

Mate I’m the complete opposite- someone could sell me a bicycle with a satnav and tell me it was the best car I’ll ever own and I’ll be into it.

Weird one that…I should like them but they’ve never really done it for me. I think they should have done a wide arch M version then it would have been epic.

Gonna sound a bit Haynes manual here but I’m going in anyway…

Probably not the timing it affected, that’s not an issue on any modern electronic ignition cars. It’s normally just carburettor engines that need timing adjustment and I don’t think there were any carb-engined 8 series?

More likely fucked up his wheel alignment and suspension causing excess wear, steering wheel vibration and drive train issues. Always a risk when you start fucking about with suspension geometry or rolling radius.
