Dacia Sandero

Irony

Having a pop up add for a Dacia Sandero Stepway at £8395 pop-up on a Porsche forum.

Is that stupid programming or what?


Yeah, it's reminded me I could've bought two and still had over 3 grand spare with what I've spent extra on options! Big smileBig smileBig smileBig smile

Second Chance Saloon

Someone mentioned this previously on here.Apparently, when the fuel consumption is measured the tank has to be a certain percentage full, hence however little, the smaller fuel tank equals slightly less weight equals slightly better fuel consumption. This is also the reason the spare wheel is an opt...

I had no problem and agreed with him that it wouldn't be right. I was quite heartened by this as I would hope they treat m...

After reading on here all the kerfuffle about 'Bosegate' I too was pretty p1ssed off as I was getting an inferior CDR+ system with no recourse as I'd already locked down.Anyway, this kept eating away inside me so I e-mailed the SA just to get him to confirm.He came back...
