Brave lad who I know has a lot of supporters over here.

The same rules apply in the UK with the exception we drive on the other side.

They weren’t, they were all 2010-2015 cars.

As it goes they do actually build many reliable cars over here in Europe. Don’t get my wrong I’m not hiding from the recent press disaster but much of their fleet does reasonably well in reliability tests.

Miles!

Ive done over 420,000 in 3 Alfa’s with zero breakdowns, do I get a medal?

Those are the manufacturer figures on numerous articles, if you google it you’ll find those numbers on a lot of reviews of the car.

The Macan turbo pp does 0-60 in 4.4s, the Jag does it in 4.1 which is faster so I’m not sure what you mean by embarrass?

They are very popular here chap.

Well hopefully you won’t have major problems. There’s a several large threads on the subject on pistonheads if you’ve got a bit of time.

I saw an UP GTi this week, looks like a groovy little thing! Reminds me of old school hot hatches!

Don’t forget though fuel is super expensive here in Europe. My M135i manages about 21-25 around town and that means with the little mileage I do I put about $80 in a week.

I was shocked to find I enjoyed the 1.0l in a Fiesta, it makes a good sound and revs very keenly.

They are probably not allowed to do that because of the F1 rights are done on a per country basis.

It’s a shame they do that because the sky coverage is brilliant and includes a lot of pre and post race coverage. Some of the technical programs on sky F1 channel are also very interesting.

Could be worse, if it were American either the electrics would try to kill you or the steering wheel would fall off! Lol!

We (I’m English) also decided to buy these jets which are troublesome, 7 years behind schedule and 165bn over budget.

Number 3 in the world for road safety!

No they don’t seize for no seatbelt. You get a 100 quid ticket.

Indeed called AskMid. Police cars autoscan registration plates with a camera and it flashes up on their in car display if the car doesn’t have insurance, tax or MOT. There are fixed cameras on main roads that do this as well.
