@L_33_H As someone who regularly drives an X7 - IMO we do not need a bigger SUV than an X7 🫡

@L_33_H True haha 🤣 Not known for being the lightest of cars with petrol engines in them. Electric Escalade seems soooooooo wrong it hurts

@AutoInfatuation An electric Cullinan or Phantom would easily be 4+ tonnes. The Escalade IQ is 4.1… 😭

@GeorgeHindle46 I actually do agree George. Whenever one of those Spectres has driven past me in London it has just oozed class. There is so little noise from the Rolls Royce 6.75L V12 it almost might as well be electric to be fair.

@AutoInfatuation I actually think the EV makes a lot of sense in a Rolls. Quiet and smooth. Exactly what a Rolls should be. No one’s buying one for the V12 noise are they

My Eldest son’s school take part in a 10 day ethical Chick 🐣 hatching program every year to give the younger children the experience of watching them hatch, handling them and showing general compassion. Every day after school we’ve heard about these Chicks and my 5 year old has fallen head over heels in love with them. Long story short, today is day 11 and we now have 9 baby Chicks living in our house apparently 😂 🤷‍♂️🐥 *We had 8 chickens about 12-13 years ago so this isn’t a new experience for us FYI, have plans for a lovely hutch/run in the garden for them when they have their feathers*

I quite like this for my sins, range is more than enough for most too so can’t slate it there. But 2,300kg to be able to do that!?!??! My 2017 Long Wheel Base, 5.2m long 7 Series weighed just under 2,200kg and that had a whopping great V12 under the bonnet 😬

This is the new BMW 3-series. Called i3, it has 559 miles of EV range, a new record. Another new record is that at around 2300kg, it now weighs over twice as much as the E21 original.

@AutoInfatuation Probably used Evri. I had a Brembo caliper bolt not never turn up after 9 days. Tracked to Evri depot then vanished.

Found the only set of Metallic Chilli Red headlight washer caps in the UK that were advertised, via the Jaguar X-Type owners group. One side is missing, the other seems ok but was annoying me. The guy wanted £25 all in. He seems fine but he sent them last Wednesday morning, it is now Tuesday and they’ve not arrived yet. Trying to work out if there’s a cheap enough postage option that’ll take a week to arrive or he’s for some reason not sent them when he said he has? Either way I paid via PayPal goods and services so get my money back but bloody annoying as in this colour, proper Jag ones are hard to find 😑

@pauleldred That is another option, there’s a chap on the group who does it but I ideally wanted Jag OG ones.

@AutoInfatuation Depends who is delivering them. If it’s Evri, they took from early August until late November delivering a parcel to me.

@Nottradingtoday I had one for a short time. Beautiful cars to look at but mine was a tad disappointing to be honest.

First time I experienced one was on the park and ride in Cambridge. Genuinely makes a tonne of sense in Buses doing city runs especially. Local haulage firm to me has a couple of Fully electric trucks that do local deliveries. When I’m on the school run in the mornings I’ll always see it drive past - so odd not hearing that Diesel rumble as it goes past.

On an electric bus for the first time going to fetch Ami from its current hiding place How can anyone experience this and think “nah I’d rather the rattly old diesel”?

Happy Heavenly Birthday mate @GregMVF4 - miss the ridiculous banter! Scrolled through some of our messages and spat out my coffee in stitches. Wouldn’t be the first time. One of the nicest, smartest and funniest chaps I’ve ever had the pleasure to call a friend.

Apropos of a mild midlife crisis and new manager suggests that I may wish to look less 🥧 🗝️... Is 38 too young to wear chinos? Asking for a theoretical friend, who seems to be spending a lot of time in corporate offices of late.
