Subaru Forester? The 2.5T does 0-60 quicker than a 197!

I have 2 dogs. This is the youngest one, Seamus. He is easily the stupidest dog I've ever known, but very loveable. This was one of the few times I've got him to sit still, as every time you point a camera at him he comes over to see what you've got and is too close to get a photo of!

As I said, there were plans for a new Alpine sports car that would've been made at the Dieppe factory (it is the old Alpine factory, after all!), but it has now been shelved. I expect that's the reason for moving R.S production elsewhere.

Nuvver 2 in Frome the other day (Weds?). Nimbus 197 with black painted rims and an Albi one, blonde lady driving. Saw another Albi with a different woman driving on the A350 in Westbury yesterday, too.

Volvo XC90?

Only £499 from K-Tec anyway. Bit concerning that they're a warranty replacement. What happened?

It'd be a first!

Looking at the Apple store reviews for the camera connector, it would seem there are compatibility issues. One reviewer has 4 cameras and the iPad only works with one of them! Perhaps that's why they stick an SD card reader in with it?

Another 25 quid, please! (for summat that should come free in the box) Kerching! Apple are taking ze peece.

Got a USB socket then, has it? Just looked. You have to spend even more money on a connector kit!

I'd've thought they'd just scrap it like they did with the 250. Much easier for them! I think those rumours come from a while back when there were plans to make a new Alpine model. This has now been shelved.

How are you gonna upload photos to ebay without a computer then? Not like you can plug your camera into an iPad, is it?

RB 197 parked in the station car park.

It'll either run off or dry in 20 minutes depending on how thick the suds are. I tend to spray on, leave a few mins and then rinse it off, before washing the car as normal. Just a bit of fun and a pre-wash really, innit!

Don't keep a DSG car after the warranty runs out. They're renowned for going wrong, usually the gearbox ECU, and you're looking at a bill running well into 4 figures to rectify. Gearbox ECU is around £1750 fitted and a new gearbox is around 5 grand. Try googling 'dsg problem' and see how many...

200's are still built in Dieppe, that's why you can still get LY paint on them. Full production lines aren't set up to do the multi coat finish.

£9500 isn't poor, that's the official Glass's guide book figure. Someone must've balls'd right up with that original £13K valuation!

That's the reason the 250 has a stuck on bodykit and isn't available in Liquid Yellow. It's made in Spain, I believe.

That 13 grand trade-in is just their way of giving a discount on their ridiculously overpriced car without looking to be dropping the price. Try doing a deal against something cheaper and you won't get anywhere near that figure. I went to look at an R32 the other day and was only offered £8K...
