Image is another problem. f**k me I cannot drive anywhere without some melt being up my ass trying to goad me into hitting triple figures everywhere.

The buttons and tech is part of the issue, yes. Which is why I caveated with they’re different generations of car. The vRS was better built and more reliable. My GTI frequently flags errors. From minor and temporary front assist issues to a full DSG and e-handbrake meltdown the other week...

I had a Mk3.5 vRS for nearly 8 years. Now had my 8.5GTI 18 months. So the caveat is they’re different generations of car but, overall I much preferred the vRS. To the point I wish I had not got rid and just spent the money sorting the minor, age related issues.

Dropping this one in here. Upbadging? Not quite. Just as noncey though.

You get speed camera warning on Apple Maps as well…?

I wouldn’t go back to a non streaming device. I enjoy paying Apple £24.99 a month to listen to the same four songs over and over and over, far to much.

Correcting myself on this one, so apologies @Ay Ay Ron, you are in fact correct. Spotted the header on Uswitch. This is new. Up until this year, I had always just gone to Uswitch and picked what I wanted, which directed me to O2 and I upgraded from there with the deal. Seems this now isn’t an...

The O2 ones are for anyone. Like I said, I do it every year. when you select the plan on Uswitch you’re taken to O2 and are asked something like “Are you a new customer or an existing wanting to upgrade“. As for moving, it’s piece of oiss these days. Text for a PAC, enter it into new supplier...

I’ve been on O2 for years. Every year, I go to Uswitch and pick whatever deal is around £8. It’s usually about 30-40 Gb. f**k going direct to O2, as you’ve found out.

Meh, don’t mind it. Front is a little busy. Like all new models, it’ll be slated and by the time it’s replaced that narrative will have changed to “this was the best one ever…”.

They are factory fit.

Briskoda is not a bad forum to ask tbh. Not as active as here but not completely dead either. A bit more anorak, as well.

New 15m rubber hose fitted; from direct hoses 👌 Almost sent it back for it not being compatible but, turns out I’m just a mong. Was also confused by the weird red paste that was on the old hose when I took it off. Oh yeah, that was blood as I’d somehow managed to lacerate my finger whilst...

I’d probably take a punt on one for a few years at this tbh… 🤔 6+35 @ £378 for 10k miles a year.

“Can I still get Emmerdale..?” Is likely to be the top question from mine 🙄
