Enjoyed test driving the Nissan Qashqai Tekna yesterday but tbh, it had far too many electronic systems that I suspect could cause problems after the warranty had ended, so it's back to the drawing board.

Next line of interest will be Audi.

I had an Audi (a longtime ago though) and the sunroof stuck open. Rough when it rained and felt kind of windy, but finally the engine gave up on a mountain road no less and it wasn't worth the money to fix.

Quite popular with the boy and a few of my friends.

I can't see any use for a convertible with the weather we have here in the UK

Currently interested in A or Q4 and A or Q5.

Choking underneath crippling amounts of engineering calculus.

We have no known pictures of Steed ... could he be one of these brawlers?

Epic 20-person bar brawl breaks out at British pub

Quote:
The West Yorks Police are currently asking the public for help in identifying additional suspects.

“We are treating this as an incident of violent disorder and are carrying out inquiries to identify those involved,” said Entwistle, adding that police are relying on the bar’s CCTV footage.

Nope STEED lives further south.

Been to a few of them brawls in my time and the lesson you soon learn is: make sure you have a partner you can rely on to watch your back and also, confirm with the station you have backup/support enroute as well as a known eta.

First or second time I didn't do that I ended up being stabbed in the leg and my partner ran outside to supposedly summon an ambulance.
