Dunno. But I’ve got to drive to Strood tomorrow and I’m excited to see if I spot any crazy old mercs on the M2.
yeah be wary of anyone parking near your car ,
so Park up right outside schools/nursery on pick up hours , ignore any double yellows, parking restrictions and zig zag lines .
Also park across 2 parking spaces at the super market, but it’s better if they’re parent/child spaces , but the disabled are even better as they’re right outside the door .

Hahaha fuck sake.
Only put the private plates on when the next reg comes out haha
Anything to be wary of? Maybe owning the most up it’s own arse car ever! 
Have I made a mistake?
Fuck that, enjoy your new toy! I used to get comments like that driving the BM in my 20s lol. You learn to relish it
I’m certain you’ll enjoy that more than the GLA. How’s the interior?
Picking the XC40 up tomorrow, so psyched. I’ve never had a new car either.

also I think if you use indicators too early on in the car’s lifespan they can cause the engine to seize, so I’d wait at least a year before using them.

Murray Walker has died . What a legend. Good run at 97.
He was the sound of Sunday afternoons on bbc and F1 in the 80’s and 90’s.
R.I.P

RIP. The commentary he does when Damon Hill wins the world championship gets me everytime.
From about 1:45 in this.

Man his voice is F1 and that must have been some moment for Murray let alone Damon .
Got to say I do miss his voice from F1, no one can match his excitement and energy.

Anyone else watch Top Gear today?
Into this, is there anything glaringly terrible I’m missing…?
Seems like a tyre sensor caused some MOT nightmare but fixed now.
Lots of tyre and suspension fixes.
The part about having part of the coil spring missing is pretty big.
Again I’d ask for this to be fully wheel aligned/ tracked and tested . Who ever had this before clearly didn’t care much about how it drove with those defects before the MOT especially the state of the tyres . Could be a curb bouncer

I’ve never had an MOT here without tyres or suspension problems, because the roads are so utterly fucked, so that makes me feel a bit better about these…
Christ , quick-fit must be rolling in it.
You’re never more than 500 yards from a Kwik-Fit or a National here.
Always thought the Syrain refugees must be absolutely appalled at the state of the place. It’s embarrassing.

Could just be shit at parking though, and it’s still fairly cosmetic things, right?
If it’s fully fixed when selling, including any and all minor advisories and it’s had a full wheel realignment after the Mot ( they should have the print out ) then it hopefully should be fine and under warranty for anything that Occurs after purchase.
