@OCDaboutCars Yeah ours isn’t like that at all. 100k ish miles, from Cinch so who knows what life was like before us.

[Tom Kent @tomkentuk]

@OCDaboutCars We have a 3.5 diesel vRS. Slight corrosion maybe, not actual rust.

[Tom Kent @tomkentuk]

@OCDaboutCars 62! All the way back in October 2019.

[Tom Kent @tomkentuk]

@DanielCars05 If it had only JUST changed, there’s an amount of time before it enforces. Allows people a safe amount of time to slow down basically. Not sure if it’s 5 seconds or 30… but I know it is something.

[Tom Kent @tomkentuk]

From the tiny Fabia 130 to the much larger Enyaq 85 Sportline. Can’t remember the last time I was wowed by how a car drove - but this has done it. Too much rain to finish my b roll right now, will have to try again later.

@ChargingFamily Mine is never shown. Let it remain a mystery. 😆😆

[Tom Kent @tomkentuk]

@smartroad78 @graeme_cobb Yep, very reasonable. Didn’t pay over €0.35 per kWh for 250-350kW charging.

[Tom Kent @tomkentuk]

@smartroad78 @graeme_cobb Oh I didn’t have that worry tbh. Also the pricing was faaaar nicer on my wallet haha.

[Tom Kent @tomkentuk]

@smartroad78 @graeme_cobb Europe is a breeeeze. I’m always a tad anxious going further than Bath in the UK. I know I’ll find something, but it’ll be an InstaVolt and it’ll financially cripple me. 🤣🤣

@pauleldred @Timoldland @Finders82 Lifetime achievement award with that carrier I’d suspect.

[Tom Kent @tomkentuk]

@smartroad78 @graeme_cobb But in comparison to most of the rest of the UK, there’s definitely less. And when you compare the UK to Europe, you realise we really don’t have that many either. 🤣

[Tom Kent @tomkentuk]

@Timoldland As useful as a chocolate teapot.

[Tom Kent @tomkentuk]

@Timoldland @rhensing We go to Europe a lot a lot, sister lives in Luxembourg and brother in law in Stuttgart.

Crazy horrible shit happens everywhere, in any country. Arguably I’d say I feel more unsafe in the UK at the moment than Europe - same goes for the USA.

Horrible people are everywhere :(

[Tom Kent @tomkentuk]

@AutoPap I’ve spent 100% of my 986s value maintaining it. 🤣

[Tom Kent @tomkentuk]

@BattagliaAlan Ah fair enough. Took my Boxster to the Porsche Museum last year - by some miracle averaged over 40mpg. 😆💪

[Tom Kent @tomkentuk]

@MttRbnsn @BattagliaAlan Mercedes Museum is a MUST.

[Tom Kent @tomkentuk]

In a world where everyone wants a sports van.. VW are doing good things.

@hjwakerley @MttRbnsn And, to be a fair, I actually really liked it. Not like, the best car in the world, but just very reasonable and practical.
