  1. I signed up for the 9.99 contract when I went to France in June and the only other time I've really used my powerpass card was when I went again in August. The money I've saved on those two trips compared to the full price ionity (let alone petrol) have more than made up for the cost of a year.
  2. Hi Corrine, I do still come on here occasionally, but not often. @Emily-Elizabeth has not come on here for a long time. Emily-Elizabeth and I are still in contact with Loz, and we meet up every so often, but I'm not sure if she posts on here. @Lee she still has her Fabia. I think she will keep it until it fails. I'm not sure if @Tigger is still around on here. I see him on Facebook still and he was trying to organise an old times sake cider farm trip for some of the old gang, but the pandemic got in the way. Most of the crowd I was friends with I now see on Facebook rather than here. @MissPiggy and family @Xavier colin, Ben @DaveUDaveU, des @HedgeHedgeand a few others.
  3. As above, It sounds like the water pump. I had one go during the main lockdown. Looking around it's a relatively common fault on the chain driven vag engines, not just the 280.
  4. With my sportline 280 (206kw), I used to manage around 31 mpg, so about 9l/100km. And that was mainly motorway driving, I almost only used 99 RON petrol in it as well. With the fuel Consumption, I don't trust them as they are all done in perfect laboratory testing, so they are not accurate to real life driving.
  5. Carplay wireless is sent to the car by a WiFi connection, so the bandwidth is greater than Bluetooth streaming. You can still use the cable option for carplay too. Another option you could use is to have the audio files on a memory stick and plug that into one of the usb-c ports, but if you only stream, you are limited to the bandwidth of the WiFi connection, as well as your phone signal and the quality of the music on the app.

    To be fair I never did the strobe light thing. I did put blue and red lights in a volvo grill and cover the sides with yellow squares for a road trip once. The problem is when your missus is now a copper, you need to be a bit more straight laced.

    Ooh, I don't know about that. I don't think I'll do much more than a colour coded badge on the outside. It's not as if you can remap it (yet), or even really use vagcom to do anything interesting (my dongle does not work with current cars either). I'd like to put a transparent blue wrap over the crystal face, but that's just asking to get pulled over.
  9. Its different and it made me smile. I like it. 👍
  10. I think the video for it makes it 10x worse than the cover really is. I'll make it better with this cover of what is love by hadaway I like searching for covers of songs that are done in a different style. Some are really good.
  11. A classic choon. It reminds me of this monstrosity that is so bad it opens Keith flints grave and poos in his mouth.....
  12. I don't think you can register 1 car to 2 accounts. Why you are unable to use the same login on 2 phones on the other hand, I'm not sure.
  13. That is for the 100kw/125kw charging option if you did not order it from the factory. It is apparently a software update to the charging circuits. I'd guess the price would be the same as the factory option.
  14. This bit sounds like utter nonsense and that they were just trying to give you a reason rather than just saying 'i dont know'. Having the wheel alignment done should not affect any of the cars electronic systems. The ACC uses radar to judge the distance, it has nothing to do with the wheels alignment. Its more likely a small knock like a pothole jarring the car, or something software related caused it to go out of calibration.
  15. They also did a cover of snap-the power. Surprisingly it's not as bad as you'd think in an early 00's rock way. The video is terrible though....
