Boo, this makes me a bit sad. The Touareg is such a lovely thing (and exceptionally depreciationy). ID.5 can go swivel though. www.autocar.co.uk/car-news/new...

Mild customer service rant: Ordered a new washing machine from Currys. It's being delivered today. Since I ordered it last week it's dropped £200… but they can't refund the difference. So I have to reject the delivery, then re-order it. Seems a bit inefficient and mad?

@timrodie.bsky.social's rather good review has done nothing to quell my desire for a Husquvarna 801.
Just a shame that I STILL can't get hold of my local dealer: even the dealer principal doesn't return emails - and no one answers the phone or returns voicemails.
All v odd.

Your hot hatch is only cool if it has a water tank in the boot so it can spray a cooling salve into the intercooler when you’re ragging it. Updated GR Yaris really has GT3RS levels of competition specialness. #gryaris

My job has some pleasant parts. Spending a week with a Skoda Superb that’s been modded to have 477 horsepower is definitely one of them. Epic thing. Thrill* your dog in style
