The Buying A Car Thread

Hursty

Mad_Cyril Its down to EU rules apparently, they have to provide WLTP/emissions figures for every variation a car can be sold as hence why they’ve massively cut down on options and only offer packs now

I see, makes sense.

Has its upsides, unless you’re the kind of BERK who simply must have a bespoke walnut steering wheel!

elrobertos does anyone know who this elrobertos bloke is?

He seems to downvote my posts more often than he even posts himself.

elrobertos

hugopal know who I am? It’s an anonymous message board you pointless dullard.

hugopal

elrobertos oh look, another petulant downvote.

Surprising as it is, some of the people on here have actually met each other in real life!

elrobertos Nice one Rob. Which model you going for? Temptingly cheap for the original but the thing that would put me off is that they still require a 6 figure car’s running costs.

elrobertos

mono-stereo decided against the R8. Couldn’t get past fact it’s still an Audi, despite everyone saying it’s a Hurcan underneath.

Currently trying to decide on an Aston, but my word they’re pricey.

Looks like proper autonomous driving is here in the UK, I’m all for it, the sooner we can use cars like buses or trains the better.

People are a liability, case in point last weekend when driving up north, so many accidents due to poor driving.

“Ford’s car costs £50,830 and while the hands-off technology will be free for the first 90 days, drivers will then have to sign up for a monthly subscription.”

Insidious behaviour.

Hursty

vinnyt77 yeah I know lol, what part of our lives won’t be on a monthly payment?

Hence why I’m heavily invested in an app which aims to solve the issues around multiple subscriptions 😆

Millsy

Hursty I’m interested. Will the app be subscription based?

vinnyt77

Hursty an app which aims to solve the issues around multiple subscriptions

Interested. Which one?

Its clearly a startup and of course the back end is based on blockchain, so that may not be as appealing

I have the app already downloaded and they are due to launch the full version this year using virtual debit cards to manage the subscriptions on your behalf

They can fuck right off with that.

A subscription to Ford…appealing
