That is a spurious correlation. You can’t tell me that I need to trade my life for a comfortable seat.

Oh good a touch screen - just what every glove-wearer hoped for!

I believe that’s probably a cleanup issue. I don’t think these cars even have fluids.

With how often I go between borders for work, it sounds like having that blemish on my passport is too much annoyance.

A very small one that speaks it’s own language that ends with “ish”.

Oh, I see what you’re saying. They did indeed charge by the KM but my google maps (I often verify that they are taking the correct route) was in miles.

To be fair, the taxi I had contained mood lighting (newish Mercedes). But the guy took 25 minutes to arrive the first time, and 20 minutes the second time (same guy, twice in 2 days, and he had a bad attitude).

Not a british city, mainland. Don’t want to say which one for work-reasons.

As much as I dislike Uber, I had the experience recently of being charged 20 euros per mile in a cab in one of these “anti-uber” cities. Screw that.

Yep, that’s 100 true. I would prefer to drive 3/10, 5/10, 6/10, 7/10 then change cars. If you watch around 26m 10s in this video (my last lap), I lift just before the crest. I had forgotten the advice of the driving instructor to stay left on that crest due to bumps unsettling the chassis. Had I been doing 9/10 or…

Those two cars aren’t far off from each other. I got passed by an RSR Fiesta while I was in the RSR Scirocco GTS. It’s all about driver and experience. I improved by over a minute per lap (from about 10:40 to 9:20 BTG) over the latter 3 laps. I probably would have kept pace with the Fiesta had it still been out…

Is delivery in Stuttgart? I did the drive of Nurburg to Stuttgart and back in 1 day without any issues. About 3.5 hours to the Mercedes Benz museum.

That’s exactly how I felt. It reminds me of what they say about motorcycles: If they were invented today, they’d be banned tomorrow.

I’ve had the driver briefing at RSR. That didn’t happen but I assume they play it by ear.

You asked the question...

I convinced my father to get a first year optima turbo when it came out. It spent more time getting fixed than you can imagine.

Good. Their drivers are some of the worst I’ve ever seen. They make uber drivers look like saints.

I’m told that Tesla’s test bench of choice for the Roadster / Model S was always a converted Tacoma. No one even noticed that these things were wracking up hundreds of thousands of miles in and around California. This kind of testing wouldn’t surprise me at all. Knowing Tesla, there’s something weird inside the…

That announcement made me want to sell my ralliart out of spite.

Don’t be confused. I work in PR. That’s a no.
