The 'is my battery dying' questions should appear too once the weird error codes start to show up on dashboards.  But it won't be because they're only doing short journeys as that's pretty much all that most can do - some as low as 20 miles!

We will be in the unique position that they will all be too proud to post the problems here, so we will get all the sunshine stories whilst the leaf forum will get all the failures and non moving problems  :)

I'm not entirely sure I am proud of it so I will call it as it is

Bit like I seem to be in the minority to think the PDK on the Porker is shit !

[emoji106][emoji106][emoji106][emoji106] it turned into a bit of a nightmare in the end.  We were basically the 2nd house in a chain sale of 4.  The day of move, first time buyers funds failed to arrive after we had packed everything up in vans etc.  That continued for 5 days, until the parents of the buyers for our house ended up stumping out ££££ and buying our house cash to allow chain to continue!!! phewffff!! stressful week.  New house is fantastic, and the area is so much nicer for us.  Small village and real quiet here. 


Be even quieter when this leaf turns up [emoji1]
