  1. I don’t understand why people get quite so upset about opinions on the internet. They’re just that, opinions. Some are well informed opinions and others aren’t, far from it in some cases it must be said.
  2. Ha ha! Me too. A purple mark 2. Loved it to bits
  3. My mum and dad wouldn’t allow me out on the road on my cycle until I’d passed the cycling proficiency test. They always mandated I couldn’t possibly know how to behave on roads without passing this. Pretty sure that I had to read aspects of the highway code too as part of the test, or perhaps it was a cut down version. Long time ago but I do remember having a good grasp of positioning, signalling and how road junctions work. All of my younger siblings went through the same thing too. Nowadays we have none of this and we are careering towards an endgame where vulnerable road users can never be at fault and they never have to worry about what is safe and what is not safe. I’m really not sure how that can be safer.
  4. I thought it was a pretty fair review. Nothing in there that would have offended me even if I owned an ES. Each to their own really.
  5. Best to buy a tyre pressure guage and check pressure in each tyre and ensure inflated to recommend settings. Different tyres on the same axle will give steering anomalies too.
  6. Just wondered why the new 2nd generation NX (NX350H and NX450H) isn’t in a separate forum of its own? The majority of posts in this forum now seem to be related to the new model so it would make sense. Also, all other areas of the forum differentiate between the different generations of a model. Doesn’t affect me because I’ve sold my NX but I would find it irritating having to wade through many threads about waiting times, specs, delivery times, etc, for the new NX.
  7. Try lubricating the rubber door seals. You can order stuff on line to do this. A quick easy thing to do which might resolve this.
  8. They were certainly making a deposit in April 😀
  9. The BEV disciples are of course completely and utterly devoted to their cult
  10. And yet you had to do exactly that. Say something more.
  11. Totally agree with this and especially so your last statement. It created a sense of entitlement and worth that society and the workplace was never ever going to be able to satisfy.
  12. Yes. I was about to say the same. No wonder prices are going up
  13. BEVs will be a temporary solution. Once fully synthetic fuel can be made, that burns in an engine with no harmful emissions, we’ll be back to internal combustion engines. I’m sure it’s possible.
  14. I have nothing to moan about. Pretty happy with my lot in fact. I might leave this one to the Victor Meldrews amongst us. And clearly there are quite a few 😀
  15. So you are concerned about replacing the windscreen and concerned about polishing it out. Rock and a hard place I think.
  16. This one is just another windup. A first post from someone with a title “need more power” and then a smiley face with no comments, no context and not even a greeting. Yeah right…
  17. I just normally get p1ss3d on New Year’s Eve 🤣
  18. My moan today is the absence of consistent data to allow me to adequately determine the risk of COVID-19. The media likes to sensationalise everything and report snippets that suit their own agendas.
  19. I have to wonder why Lewis Hamilton doesn’t get the respect that his achievements deserve. He is the greatest driver I’ve seen in 40 years of watching this sport bar none.
  20. If said Fiesta was upside down then yes it probably was Katie Price!
  21. A perfectly valid moan in my opinion. Well done!
  22. Will we see Lewis Hamilton in an F1 car again? I’m beginning to think we may not, at least in terms of racing again in F1. I hope not but I’m sure he isn’t feeling good about this. I can’t imagine what it is like to go through the whole season giving absolutely everything you’ve got and then have it taken away from you at the end of the very last race by an incorrect and unprecedented application of the safety car rules. That the FIA releases a statement saying that many people have a misunderstanding about the last race ending is beyond a joke and shows the contempt they have for competitors, teams and fans alike. Of course Max is a worthy world champion in terms of the way that he drove all year and really took the fight to Lewis and Mercedes. He should not be world champion though because he was soundly beaten in the last race and it took a bizarre decision by the race director to gift him with the win. The last sequence of races, when it really mattered at the end of the season, were fantastic races by Lewis and Max could not compete with this. Will Lewis Hamilton be back next year though. I try to put myself in his shoes and think what I would do in the same situation. He might well feel that he has nothing else to prove and it is time to move on.
