Long Live the King

Well said, sad news indeed.... most people in the UK have never known another British Monarch.

BMW to charge for using heated seats

Crikey, are we into the era of people trying to "jailbreak" their cars to add features? I know with Audis there is a hidden menu you can activate to add some features that were not there out the box.

Haha, well I’m not going to feel sorry for you then!

Btw, I’ve just made a small change to the session security which may help.

Logging in deja-vu

No idea, mate... nothing has changed from our end and I can't see any other reports of similar happening. It's not normal that "remember me" should disappear as soon as you type your username though, sounds like something weird going on with your browser or a plugin of some sorts?

HAHA, you win the Internet tonight, Sir! :rofl:

Hopefully someone will be along soon to answer (I have no clue!), but in the meantime I would advise not lifting the vehicle at all after several pints of Stella! :rofl:

Another year, another MOT

X5Sport wrote: Mon Nov 01, 2021 7:04 pm When I was waiting to get mine back, someone had just bought and paid £93k cash for a £112k X6M. That fuel bill must be awesome. Probably needed a refuel before it got back to Birmingham :D :D
If you can blow 93k cash on a car then you prob don't care too much about the fuel bill :)

I think these sites go up and down in price... I have actually found Kwikfit to be competitive the last few times I have been. Depending on the dealer they often beat prices I can get online.

Still strange that you are the only one reporting this. I have swapped the site's SSL certificate to a different one anyway, just to be on the safe side, so let me know if it has made a difference (you may need to restart your browser if you get an error just now)

It’s not so much about time zone, more about whether the time is correct (to the minute).

Strange, you seem to be the only person experiencing this.

What device are you using? Can you check the date and time are correct?
