Afternoon, My mk4 dci is due for the first annual service and on 7700 miles. I'm trying to book online as the service dept is shut but can't work out whether to select interim or full service. I've had a good search online and looked everywhere I can logically think in the handbook, including...

I'll have to as well. Always been meaning to get involved with a meet but never seen one I've been available for.

Looks lovely. Still would love to own an RB one some time. Which part of Herts are you in?

This afternoon, probably about 3ish but can't really remember. Very tidy looking car. Love these, I've seen very few RBs ever.

Oh, excellent. Thanks Martin, will do.

I've got a mk4 dci to commute in. I got it on a PCP deal a few weeks ago. I had a thread on here whilst deciding whether to get rid of the 172. I got a lot of positive feedback from owners of dci models and some criticism at the concept of it saving money over continuing with the 172 which was...

When I've looked for 1*2s in the past there's always been a place in Newcastle pop up which seems to stock a few at a time - believe it was called 'DTM'. Can't comment on whether it's a reasonable/trustworthy dealer though, I've just seen adverts in passing.

Not a huge amount. Not many feature films really, I'll probably get rid soon after a couple of years of using it on and off. That said, there's some exclusive content which is your high budget US series type. A lot of it gets good reviews - the only one I've watched is 'Narcos' which I'm getting...

I quite often use my Xbox for the Netflix app, as well as BBC iplayer and 4OD (or whatever it's called now). It's quicker and more reliable than doing it via the Virgin Media TiVo box. Mostly I tend to record stuff from TV broadcast on the TiVo and watch it as and when. I like having the choice...

Did you send off the form to the DVLA? If so, any response or still waiting?

Will do, Martin. Thanks again for all your comments to assist me in my decision. Ron, you clearly understand the issue! An estate agent would call it an 'up and coming area'.

Apologies, I got myself muddled with who'd posted what! Update is I've picked up the new car. Very pleased so far and I anticipate that it'll be a very suitable daily drive

@Martin_172 do you own a mk4 dci at the moment? That's how I felt taking one out for a drive - nice comfortable experience where nothing feels awkward. Even the steering wheel is pleasant to hold coming from the massive one in the 172!

What would you have instead of the Megane?

Once again, I appreciate the input from everyone. I've asked the dealer to provisionally go ahead with the finance checks for that deal so I can go for it by the end of the week if I decide to. The 172 is sounding less healthy by the day so I've almost made my mind up. Chaski and Ricardos -...
