I haven't bought a car in over 10 years so I need to be educated on these things. Just playing the stereotype mate. And I thought the edition name was a bit cockish That said, I drive 2 Volvos and a Caddy van, so who am I to talk shit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

choffer Posted May 9, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted May 9, 2018 Picking this up Friday. Still need convincing on it but I think I've just put the first tentative step into middle age. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So hopefully this time next year, a boss 302! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisp65 Posted July 8, 2018 Share Posted July 8, 2018 I was in Ikea yesterday and in the car park electric charging bay was a fairly ordinary looking VW Beetle - the old air cooled style. But it was being charged. Sure enough, a little bit of a google and its a real thing. I think I might be in love. As for my boring old Hyundai hybrid, 4 of us and a boot full of luggage have just completed a grand tour of Cornwall. So a good mix of M4, M5, decent A roads and Cornish B roads to Polperro and the likes. I put £40 of petrol in before we set off. Back home now, it'll need another visit to a petrol station in the next couple of days. That's about 500 miles plus, or somewhere over 70mpg. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seat68 Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 My car is beeping at me to have its service done, its 15,000 and 2 years old so I suspect its the 2 year service. I bought it a few months back and checked the book and it hasnt had its 10,000 mile service. Its a Hyundai i30, is this likely to void the warranty?

It could be that the 1 year service didn't get put in the book? The book is often just the nice thing for the customer, whereas they've got the 'real' record on computer. Which by absolute coincidence helps them with return custom when you look to trade, because you can only prove full service history to your own garage... But you really should have been looking at a German car. They cost far more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will take that as an excuse and worry when Hyundai quibble in the future. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A'Villan Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 Gave my Subaru Liberty to my Dad earlier in the year as I basically live in the CBD and he gave me free rent while I did my first Diploma and part of my carpentry apprenticeship.
