Re: BMW i3

Zapmap is very good, and good at getting the best chargers as they are not all created equal. But tbh 90% of my charging is at home - as a day today vehicle it's just more convenient than an ICE.

Re: BMW i3

An owner writes... They are getting better... They actually make a lot of sense in rural areas, spoke to a farmer recently (actually last summer) - they drive EVERYWHERE but charge at home. It used to mean a special 20 mile round trip for diesel, now they just plug it in every night. Because my wife...

Re: BMW i3

Speak nicely to BMW and try and get a weekend test drive. Lindsay might change her mind.

Suzy just brought ours up to Aviemore even though she had to stop for a charge, she loves it.

Re: BMW i3

We've just spent way too long trying to pick a replacement. The Ipace is nice and on a lease not that much but we really like the i3 so are going to buy it from the lease company.

It's not perfect but it is very good...

Wheels and tyres! S2 K series. Cheap.

Look I've put them on eBay like someone who actually wants to sell stuff might do rather than my normal half hearted approach.

VERY VERY CHEAP.

VW Golf '06 GTi TFSI

"What that Golf?" I hear you cry. "Yes." I reply, wiping a tear. THE Golf. Previously DDTB. then Neil's and for the last 3 years MINE. It is an awesome car, 3 door (the best shape), full leather, a lovely thing to drive. Full MOT (pretty much), full service history, only 125,000 miles (drives like n...

Re: Heritage centre and museum

The Mercedes one at Brooklands is excellent. Better than Brooklands in some ways.

Re: New toy

I've had the 330d one day and would like the 130i back please. Interesting. Care to elaborate? Preferred the interior, it's much lighter generally and the broon leather is much nicer than the black in the 330d. Also, surpringly, the 3.0 N/A petrol straight six is quite a lot nicer than the diesel s...
