The Random Chit-chat Thread

At least you do get reminded about the tax.

Earlier in the year, I drove my Evoque around for three months without a valid MOT (and therefore no valid insurance either).

Made me feel pretty guilty after I found out. Thankfully, a local garage made the inspection and got it sorted out the next day.

My Jag got towed once because the sodding DVLA did not send me a reminder and I did not notice. Finding no car at 22:30 was not fun, nor the fact that our house keys were in the boot.

My neighbour has an F-Type. Looks good on the outside, but the interior is, how shall I put this, erm - not to my taste...

I've found out that when the car is in stop/start mode, I can restart the engine just by jinking the steering wheel.

Saves that slightly annoying pause when you move away at the lights/junction.

I believe that if you momentarily relieve the pressure on the brake pedal, the same thing will happen.

[Pete]

Not when you're in HOLD mode...

If you're in hold mode, you wouldn't have your foot on the brake too, though?

[Pete]

Nope, of course not.

Wait is finally over, we collect on Wednesday afternoon if all goes to plan.

It'll be boring black for a week then gorgeous green.

I understand that some may not like that!

PP65### so won't look new to the casual observer or crim.

We're totally overexcited, first new car for 25 years.

Great news, Tim! Very much looking forward to the pics, especially when it's green!!
