Well, it's summer, so it's raining and we want that wipers update :D

Mine seems to be spot on - give or take a fraction of a kW out of a 42kW total this week as my last charge. My setup for charging is just the plug in granny cable to be fair rather than anything fancy - so reliant on the straight Ovo to Tesla API.

No. Black, round and with a minimum 1.6mm of tread on them is all.

Only time I have ever seen an enhanced value is when you have a special edition type car or off the shelf package - which came with a bunch of upgrades as standard over the base models. Say a bodykit + leather sports seats + suspension upgrade + special paint colour option, that sort of thing...

Yeah I don't get it either, why anyone wants a Beetle is really beyond me.

Yeah it's about 6% lower - not huge, but appreciated instead of a 30%+ increase which seems to be usual fair :D

In a shocking turn of events my policy renewal arrived today from Admiral - and it is the first time I can remember it being LOWER than I paid the previous year with no negotiation. Considering I already have full no claims and approaching 50 this year, it's rare to see year on year reductions...

I wouldn't dwell on it too much. You are afterall talking about 24 miles indicated difference, that is something that would be lost on a bit of putting your foot down or a high speed hill I would leave not charging it to 100% though on an older battery model - I think I have done that myself...

I would have to agree with this. The remote diagnosis, updates and parts ready for fitting is a game changer over traditional dealerships. Even from an EV perspective, the likes of VW are miles behind. As an example, when my onboard modem went faulty it was one visit to Bristol service centre...

I will see - in three years when my current PCP is up on my M3P. That's a long time away with the speed of progress at the moment.

About 7 secs, and you are talking about a car that is at least 10 years old I think at the end of it's production run...2013 probably at the newest as I don't think they have done a CDI badged car for some time now. But it is about the same as I paid extra coming from a Merc C250D to the M3...

You want 3M Dual Lock for outdoors if possible - https://www.amazon.co.uk/Dual-Lock-SJ3550-Tape-25-4mm - is fully plastic and has a VHB type tape on the back of it too. It sort of clicks together rather than peels like velcro does and won't hold onto any water. I used it to mount two small...

It would probably have to be closer to 650 to 700bhp to hit a sub 3 I think ? - 1900KG is a lot of weight to get moving for sure. I would be happier with some better suspension or adaptable suspension so you can actually use some more of the power effectively. But the idea of some seats that...

Looks like home insurance is now coming under the "magic maths" increases too. Had an email from LV explaining that costs of insurance are going up because house values are now 22% more than last year - then today got my renewal which apparently equates to a 62% policy increase with no change in...
