Rab Posted April 8, 2021 Posted April 8, 2021 I bet it sounds glorious. I've been doing little things here and there to my MX5. It's a long term project so there's going to be no drastic changes initially. Found a bunch of rust that's going to need fixed first before anything else happens on the car.
Happy Blue Posted May 30, 2021 Posted May 30, 2021 Just picked up this Q2 black edition this morning traded in my beemer for it, got an Audi Q7 too which is currently in piece's needing 4k worth of engine work should be fixed next week hopefully!
Bluebird Hewitt Posted May 30, 2021 Posted May 30, 2021 My sister has a Q2. Nice car in fairness. For me, I have a 68 plate VW Polo. Might not be as fancy, but I'm more than happy with it as I don't need anything huge really.

VW make very solid cars, what spec did you get? ..with VW owning Audi i think the Q2 is basically a jacked up Golf ..just found this so not far off! "The Audi Q2 rides on the same platform as the Volkswagen T-Roc, which it also shares engine options with"

"The Audi Q2 rides on the same platform as the Volkswagen T-Roc, which it also shares engine options with" I'm not great with specs in all honesty. It's an R-Line model (used, but was only 7-8 months old when I got it), but the engine isn't the best really (can't remember off the top of my head, but it was one of the lower engines). Just wanted a more sturdy car that was good to drive really (my previous was a Corsa and while it did the job, it was getting on).
DeadLinesman Posted May 30, 2021 Posted May 30, 2021 I had the Polo Blue GT a few years back. 170BHP, like shit off a shovel and did 60mpg! What a car.

Think that's the same engine whats in this Q2, its surprisingly nippy for a heavy car so bet you was flying in the polo ..Q7 is 333bhp but only does about 19mpg

Your Polo is an upgrade from the corsa, never liked them things or vauxhall in general despite having an Insigna about 10 years ago which was half decent
Eco Posted June 4, 2021 Posted June 4, 2021 Wife got into a back accident a couple of months ago and totaled my car (Mazda). So we went out and decided to buy us both a new car, and since we love VW's reliability and drivability, we got two brand new cars on the same day. My wife got the VW Tiguan R Line similar to this - I got the VW Jetta GLI (which is the GTI's engine in a Jetta's body) -

Engines and transmissions are shared across the entire group in many cases, across brands, and segments (sports, luxury, SUV, etc).

Yeah, I have had Acrua's and Mazda's, but this GLI is easily the quickest car I've ever had. I love it.
Subscriber CaaC (John)+ Posted June 14, 2021 Subscriber Posted June 14, 2021 Wee Kaiden's new jacket arrived and I said he looks like Marlon Brando in The Wild One, he said he wants a cap, shades and gloves like him now too, I told him the motorbike will come when he gets older.
Eco Posted June 26, 2021 Posted June 26, 2021 Looking into getting a motorcycle - this is the style I'm leaning towards. Thoughts?

I’m not sold on this particular model, and I still need to get my permit, but I’m definitely trying to learn and buy one of these and just cruise around
Happy Blue Posted July 5, 2021 Posted July 5, 2021 Well that didn't take long .. @DeadLinesman i thought Warrington was a nice area? looks like i've taken a drive through the ghetto and caught a bullet lol ..some jealous pricks about!

Subscriber CaaC (John)+ Posted January 29, 2022 Subscriber Posted January 29, 2022 Quote The future of cars: 9 designs that could revolutionise the vehicle industry The vehicle industry rapidly improves every year, bringing about incredible new and exciting technology for cars. Cars are changing all the time. Every year new technology comes out that rapidly advances our everyday vehicles of choice, adding new technology, improving the existing functions or completely radicalising the design. But what can we expect from the cars of the future? Will they rapidly improve or have we perfected the design? We’ve picked out the most exciting technology, concepts and upcoming models for the future of cars. Tesla Cybertruck Cybertruck driving on road © Tesla inc It’s not really a roundup of futuristic cars without Tesla’s Cybertruck! This notorious car was unveiled back in 2019 but has recently been delayed yet again with 2023 announced as the new date for deployment. The Cybertruck is built mostly to be resilient. It uses Ultra-Hard 30X Cold-Rolled stainless-steel structural skin to harden the frame of the car. That’s a complicated way of saying that the frame of the car is seriously strong. It is also what causes the car’s pointy futuristic design, as the cold-rolled metal loses a lot of its flexibility and formability Despite a now infamous video of the Cybertruck windows being easily destroyed by Musk at the Cybertruck reveal, Tesla is claiming that the car’s strength extends to the windows. Ultra-strong glass and polymer-layered composite will supposedly absorb and redirect force keeping your windows safe. Tesla is also claiming that the Cybertruck will be able to tow over 6,350 Kilograms – roughly the weight of the average African bush elephant. That’s a lot of impressive stats but with all of its many delays, it could well succeed in achieving them all… now we just have to see if it will come out in 2023 or be pushed back again.
