@hjwakerley Can’t comment on value but my dad had one (also Techno Violet, but manual) back in 1998, sadly it was a company car - we both wish he still had it…!

@AutoInfatuation @wrenching_wench I used to run my 2013 Focus TDCI on V Power (or other premium diesel) purely out of DPF anxiety. I now have a 2001 525i (Super Unleaded) and 2001 525d (regular diesel, usually Sainsbury’s for convenience lol but I add Millers Diesel Power Eco Max - crap name for a good product!)

@hannah1989__ 100% one pack per person in this house 😂

@CitizenUddin @AndrewH1506 @neilt1978 @Wankpanzer Gold star for me! 😁⭐️

[Alex Lane @LaneAlex91]

@AndrewH1506 @neilt1978 @CitizenUddin @Wankpanzer It wasn’t explicitly clear to begin with, I must admit, but I understand he was sat stationary at the side of the road, with his engine running, for an extended period of time (enough for the OP to walk past on their wait to a shop and him still be there as they walked back)

@motormobilias My dad had a Granada (2.0 Scorpio) 30+ years ago, so that would tempt me, but in the end I’d have to go with the 730i

[Alex Lane @LaneAlex91]

@PaulCowland_ It slips in between two ‘mating faces’ (but definitely not in an engine…)

[Alex Lane @LaneAlex91]

@AutoPap It’s good looking yes, but as an E39 owner I may disagree, but then again I’m biased… 😁

[Alex Lane @LaneAlex91]

@AutoPap Does look a bit bland, but maybe it’s just the trim level - I’ll reserve judgement completely until I see an R (or even an R-Line)…

Not written by me but fully echoed. The thing about Black Country folk is that we have patience, long memories, a wealth of resources and a dogged determination to relentlessly pursue a vendetta #CrookedHouse

@ThePollitt Every car group picking holes in your car / ad

[Alex Lane @LaneAlex91]

@Bloomgabs @hannahgib81 I did the same. Our current fixed deal is up at the end of May. Recently logged in online with current lender, and was able to remortgage to a higher but more reasonable rate in a few minutes. Gone up by £150 rather than £700. Also try L&C, broker we got our previous deal from👍🏼

[Alex Lane @LaneAlex91]

@hugeknickers @Only9built I’ve seen that elsewhere too, but in this vid, no attempt at braking - they even seem to speed up around the second car before they dive down the bank!

[Alex Lane @LaneAlex91]

@nxwestmidlands would love to know why your driver has just driven straight past me waiting at the stop… 8 bus, Wollaston Farm - Wolverhampton, Hudswell Drive stop. Unacceptable!

@Ricky_Bobby1971 @Sapper1801 @SkyNews Hold on… may I stop you there - my wife is a Nurse, working in the NHS - they do *not* get their Christmas party funded by the taxpayer! She has had to pay for a ticket to their Christmas party herself.

@jakebeldercars @Mr1000CR Petrol E60, nice 👌🏼

[Alex Lane @LaneAlex91]

@Ssmith1821 @Sandford_Police And that fantastic camera, great for taking videos of each other firing two guns up in the air and going “aaarrrrgh!”
