Car appreciation... the aesthetics, the engineering, etc

John? Interested in more details - trying to get my dad to replace his e46 before it rusts out from under him and £2k is about all he can ever face paying for a car.

That has the zf 8hp box doesn't it? If does great box. My fav, only draw back is getting it serviced, the oil is zf only not sure about the filter. But do able by home mechanic no special tools.

From bad memory, the ls2 is an improvement over the ally blocked ls1. But the LS1 also came in a steel block.

I do know there are a few bolt on supercharger kits ;) from watching a few us custom car programs.

Yes! I'll get him to message you.

Is the Chrysler 300c available in an estate with the charger/challenger hemi?

I bought a 2014 C220 Cdi Coupe a week ago and am loving it so far after a couple of 5+hr trips in bank holiday traffic. Apparently the post-facelift ones are better for not having rusty subframes according to one random forum post I read somewhere. I thought the facelift headlights made it look a bit more current.

Really nice inside and nice drive (I think), feels very premium and generally everything works and is nice to use so far. I tried to find Distronic (their adaptive cruise) and a sunroof but in the end mileage/age/colour won out.

that is helpful thanks, the coupe and even the estate are quite good looking

After moaning to my insurer about the valuation of my recent write off they've given me an extra £850. Which is about 20% more.

nice!

in the black? Good effort.

I got caught up in a pile up on the motoray in Belgium a few weeks back. My VW Transporter was a write off. Insurance payout was £8k less than what its cost me to replace like for like.... and my premium has gone up from £480 to £2100 😭

Cunts.

Ok, I’m sorry becoming a bit of an indecisive nuisance in this thread but anyone have any comments on Vauxhall Zafira reliability?

Looking at this as an option: http://www.autotrader.co.uk/car-details/202403137501827

Bhp per tonne much improved

I’ve decided to just go the Car Giant showroom on Sunday like the basic bitch I am.

Could someone please grab the MOT history of RB10 AMG and paste it into the thread?

Is the gov site blocked for you? Can you use one of the car check sites? https://car-check.co.uk/check/RB10AMG

As requested

Thanks! Looks ok then.

Blocked for non UK IP addresses last time I tried.

Beaten to it

Do you even VPN?

That was also blocked (Freedome)

Not sure its quite the market but my 1M has to go. Regretted sale due to long standing injury making driving a manual more and more difficult.
Alpine white, 82k miles, ideal spec with no sat nav and manual seats. Asking £36k, making it by far the cheapest 1M around at the moment.
