    Its to my everlasting shame that when I first saw that video I did not know which one was Paul Simon and which was Chevy Chase, and whether they were directing that song at yours truly in a nice or insulting way. Graceland is a go to CD for myself over the last 39 years but I always tend to...

    I hate my MG4

    If you have read many of the posts on this forum you would realise that not many of us are fanatics of MG . We have some problems which are shared and a collective knowledge is then employed to help the afflicted. If MG wants a fanbase and which manufacturer doesn't, it needs to improve its...

    I hate my MG4

    Removing the front "sensor " would mean removing the bumper, not impossible but not easy , then when your lease is up , you have to put it back or suffer excess charges. The tape on the windscreen has been discussed before , but the camera is covered by the sweep of the wipers , so either won't...

    True, but I'm not going to edit it , lost has a more emotional vibe to it, Then again , that gold? bracelet I got from Ratner's for my wife, and hid under the drivers seat for safe keeping until Christmas . A late November MOT failure and subsequent trip to the scrapyard coupled with amnesia...

    Cold weather motorway mi/kWh?

    You never can really forecast the future .... you could set up a winter tyre import business as a future investment. Should the weather change and with a bit of bribery to Cypriot officials you'd clean up!

    Buyers Remorse And I Haven't Even Got It Yet

    I don't know anything about the car , but, as in life, if you go in with low expectations you will most likely be pleasantly surprised and happy. Go in with high expectations and the smallest niggle will disappoint you. 🤷‍♂️
