@ShamiKalra Thank you!

@GarethDennis @stephen37292ML Would be a fun mini series "an engineer plays" where you remodel different real junctions on transport fever 2?

[JayeOFarrell @JayeOFarrell]

@GarethDennis @stephen37292ML Anything you would have done differently to the layout?

[JayeOFarrell @JayeOFarrell]

@au_tom_otive You're absolutely correct. Using a walkie talkie and doing a piece to camera on the public highway at 70mph is definitely questionable and maybe even lamentable.

If only you'd made that point from the start.

[JayeOFarrell @JayeOFarrell]

@au_tom_otive Damn, you got the dyslexic on the finer points of punctuation. Pedantry corner alert. But, I haven't failed to notice you still haven't admitted you were wrong and your attempt to cover your tracks and pivot hasn't been terribly successful 😂

@G4ilM @modernheroestv RAC equipped vans (which is increasingly all of them) can charge a stranded EV at 4kw which adds 14 miles an hour (on average). The average distance to a charger in rural England is 16 miles and in urban environments it's 1 mile. So being stranded is not really a concern anymore.

@TedWelford I have the top spec 2.0 (is this the only example of the top spec having smaller capacity?) Skyactiv X with the SPCCI tech in soul red; with the styling and interior quality and no touch screen! It's surely one of the best cars on sale. Plus it'll easily do 55mpg on the motorway.

@scoopster6 @andyfholland @harrym_vids Companies go bust all the time, VW is a case in point, they make entirely undesirable EV products, which ruined their unimpeccable reputation for quality. You cannot say for sure that a brand is failing because of EV requirements when plenty are doing just fine, BYD, Tesla etc.

@rageinhisfeet @harrym_vids At the time 16K was within £500 of what the going rate was for the Performance Line+. Lower spec ones were cheaper. The range in summer is easily 200miles, winter is more like 170.

@zxksqef @carlfhoward @harrym_vids French Brand, the premium arm of Citroen. However the DS3 was developed in collaboration with a Chinese brand.

@andyfholland @harrym_vids Since the end of COVID, car sales have remained within a few percent every year so I don't believe manufacturers are making cars nobody wants. Perhaps they're not making cars you want. You've got to be careful not to conflate personal bias with nationwide opinion.

@TedWelford @AllieCrooks The wheels on the new one are absolutely ace! Plus that colour is brilliant

[JayeOFarrell @JayeOFarrell]

@MrTimDunn @MayorofLondon @TfL I still find the names a little clunky though I'm sure I'll get used to them but that is one hell of a brilliantly designed promotional roundel. I can imagine that on posters for sure.

[JayeOFarrell @JayeOFarrell]

@timoldland The new interior is worth twice that imo 😂

[JayeOFarrell @JayeOFarrell]

@hankgreen Every single time you say nichè in a video! 😂

@MartinSLewis I preferred Aldi but I stopped because they brought in a policy to check inside everyone of your bags-for-life before you checkout. The presumption of you being a thief, & being made to feel like a criminal every time I visited meant I switched to Lidl and can shop with dignity.
