Re: Winter tyres. Discuss.

eBay's also good for genuine wheels. I got a set of brand new ones from Germany for about 40% of what they'd cost here. Mine came from this seller but there seem to be a few who do it https://www.ebay.co.uk/str/penzv

Re: Leccy cars

Intelligent Octopus is what I'm planning to move to when our fixed deal runs out in November. I guess it makes more sense being on the 3 pin plug with IO as you'll then get more cheap daytime slots.

Re: Leccy cars

Re: Anyone bought a new car recently?

Finding a mint 535d is a bit tricky so you've got to take what you can get colour wise. 14 years old and only 70k on the clock.

Re: Anyone bought a new car recently?

Total fleet change here this year, other than the Exige which stays. Mini & E60 525d gone, replaced by E61 535d and IPace.
