Thanks to @dubDEAN and @Gaz for bringing this back OT. This is a car forum after all. There are other areas within this forum to discuss languages or even other things.

I only asked if there were any decent ones still left 🙃

Are there any decent unmodded MkIs left that haven't been ragged, rolled or written off?

We've a few Jays come to our garden as well. Very very timid. Also had a black redstart which was very shy as well so no pic 😞

@Crucian IME one recommendation over another rarely helps when asking for a recommendation for something such as a chair. I think the best thing you can do is get to an office supplies place/ furniture store and try them out for yourself. Maybe PC World even have some now IDK We're all different shapes and sizes etc so what might work for person A may well be completely inappropriate for the next person.

Passive IR, pressure sensors, optical sensors LASER sensors etc. No mention of RADAR in this piece 🤷‍♂️ https://www.azosensors.com/article.aspx?ArticleID=2621 https://www.gdukds.com/news-media/how-do-automatic-door-systems-actually-work/ OK there is in this piece. Are they uncommon now? https://www.safetell.co.uk/insights/what-sensors-are-used-in-automatic-doors/#:~:text=Radar movement sensors use radar,direction they are coming from.

I don't know what a plunge saw is but if you mean reciprocating saw then I'd say go for it. I've had my eye on one myself but I need a way to justify the purchase to 'er indoor 🤣

Not even close to a Capri. It looks awful. Like a banana coloured Enyuq

2006 onwards Fabia/ Polo or Ibiza. Estates are very practical IMO. I've only experience with 1.9TDi and 1.6TDi ones but both were totally reliable in my ownership. SE trim is a good trim level which is known as a MkII Fabia 3 on early MkII Fabias which confuses some people. Look out for cheap limited/ special edition ones. Could be a bargain depending on condition, milage and history but there's some that have been ragged.

FAO @lol-lol Just seen this - not read it yet. Tariffs of 'up to' 38% on Chinese EVs https://www.dw.com/en/eu-slaps-tariffs-of-up-to-38-on-chinese-electric-vehicles/a-69557494

I am so brand new mats. Hey presto!

No point rescuing any if the car's on fire is there? 😛

Yes I just saw it! I can't vote for one or the other. Carpet in summer rubber in winter.

Rubber in winter carpet in summer. You can do a poll on Brikoda you know @Happy_owner

Bit late for that.

Wow that's a bit of a list Proper winter jobs.

The older 105 has a cam chain whilst the 110 has a cam belt IIRC. If you go for the 110 it will be worth asking if the belt has been don.

I prefer Guy Martin's Amazon.

Those advisories/ fails/ passes could equally apply to a non EV owner.

Are you getting an EV, Graham or in the market for one or even considering considering getting one? I thought you were happy with your Superb?

Looks like your speedo's faulty@AnnoyingPentium

Had one on my 1.9TDi. It didn't seem to heat the engine up any faster tbh. Just keep your heater off for longer.
