I see Tesco are banging up the price of a Bag for Life to 40 P! Anyhow…it’s thin plastic so how long do these people expect their punters to go on…using their trolleys like a zimmer some days as I do. We still have Bags for Life over 10 years old. What are people doing to them?
Harrumph. Letter to the Guardian
Check out the latest depreciation figures of expensive leccy 4 wheel washing machines on Sky’s Money pages. I could not believe some of them.
No mention of out of the true cost of warranty battery packs Harrumph. Letter to the Guardian.
There are some really nice Dealers. Penny our “ new” Suzuki was treated to her 2nd Gen3 paint resins this week FOC after I introduced a buyer to them who was thinking of a Swift…..she bought one.
I recently bought a Jaguar I-Pace HSE with performance seats. A tenner under £20k at a main dealer, two years of approved used warranty (which on paper appears to be very good), and some extra mats and a seat cover for the dog thrown in. Five years old, 40k miles. Brand new list price was probably c. £65 - 70k. I’m very happy that they’ve depreciated so heavily!
Crikey I can’t imagine how anybody can afford, let alone justify, that level of depretiation on a vehicle they drive less than 10k a year, how the other half live Hope you enjoy your bargain
Thank you, loving it so far. It’s had several owners and suspicions are it was a JLR fleet management car initially (I have a friend who used to work at JLR and he still knows people there). Very few people were looking at the depreciation on these I doubt: all people care about is the monthly payment and high end EVs were a very attractive company car option for a while.
My son went JLR with the purchase of a used diesel Evoque. The engine lunched itself on the A1 and filled the cabin with smoke, a 12-month-old in the back.
The JLR specialist it got towed to said it had done well to get to 60,000, they usually blow up at 40k.
Using a shopping trolley as a Zimmer frame is one thing, draping yourself over it and using your legs as paddles, like some old blokes do, is unacceptable.
And scooting along to get up a decent speed then leaning up onto the trolley to see how far you can free-wheel across the car park is right out! (Good fun though😁)
I came to grief once doing that across a wet Tesco’s car park. Luckily no vehicles were close by.
Wife was not amused. The kids were in fits of laughter.
Defo on Nose in the Air Radio Silence punishment today. Forgot to transfer stuff from washing machine to condenser drier while The Boss was out getting her monthy £80.oo bl**dy hair do.
It gets worse….I did not take the green bin out on time for the binnie to empty…Cardinal Sin.
I think I’ll just put the Bose cans on and rock ‘n roll for the weekend. If she wants to eat…order it.
Im gunna hit a Jonnie Walker 12 Black Label after a good stage 4 cancer result. I ain’t going into any Hospice in 2026 folks…after a good 5 day radio therapy Tazering. Sod it ! I’m up for the braw fight ahead…whisky is a good 10/30 lube! Lovely effect with the evening 9 meds a day.! ( Hic ….. Grandpa type pump )
