  1. What colour Niro are you going to get?
  2. Even though the Toyota e-CVT might be a technological win, how does it feel in terms of power delivery, safety, and passing? Does it give torque quickly? like a dsg with buttons, or do the revs go up and the power comes on slowly? Plugin octavia (and even leon/passat phev) will continue to charge from the gasoline engine and can use the plugin away from home/holidays/free supermarket trips - therefore, it is more versatile and depreciates less. This is the acceleration of the Skoda Superb iV Plug-In Hybrid 2020/2021 (1.4 l R4 TSI petrol engine + electric, 160 kW, 218 HP, 400 Nm, FWD, 6-speed DSG from 0 to 60 miles per hour, 0 to 100 kilometres per hour, 0 to 140 kilometres per hour, and 0 to 200 kilometres per hour (up to top/max speed). Results: 0-60 mph: 0-100 km/h in 6.75 seconds 0-140 km/h in 12.5 seconds 0-100 mph in 16.5 seconds 0-200 km/h in 28.5 seconds 0-225 (140 mph) km/h in 45.1 seconds (top/max speed). 80-120 km/h in 4.1 s Toyota Corolla 2.0L Hybrid 2019/2020 (2.0 l R4 gasoline engine + electric, 132 kW, 180 HP, FWD, e-CVT acceleration from 0-60 mph, 0-100 km/h, 0-140 km/h, and 0-185 km/h (up to top/max speed). 0-60 mph: 7.8 seconds 0-100 km/h: 8.2 seconds 0-140 km/h: 15.1 seconds 0-100 mph: 20.1 seconds 0-185 km/h (maximum GPS speed): 28.4 seconds 80-120 km/h: 5.2 seconds 70-140 km/h: 10.0 seconds Compared to stellaris peugeot phevs, the beautiful, new 308sw appear to be relatively untested.
  3. The 12v supply to bypass the ballast system for start up should be a little wire coming to the coil from the starting solenoid; use a test bulb to see whether this wire is connected to the solenoid's centre pole.
  4. If cranking is normal, jumpstarting should rule out the battery, which appears to be the case. begin at the outset and determine if sparking is occurring; if so, is the problem fuel-related? Are the inserts moist or blackened? Work first on getting it to start, then on stopping while travelling.
  5. If cranking, jumpstarting should eliminate battery. Start at the beginning and see if it sparks—is it gasoline related? moist or sooted plugs. Start with starting, then cut off while driving.
  6. Hi. Who here knows the current state of track day helmet regulations? Several track day organizers use the "Suitable" exception, and I've been thinking about trying to replace my old helmet with one that complies with the standards, but I'm not sure what requirements it has to follow. I had decided on BS6658 part A, but I've now learned that it's being phased out in December, and the most widely-used alternative, ECE 2205, doesn't apply to automobiles.
  7. As stated in the headline, I am having a dispute with the DVLA about an apparently untaxed car that I own. So here are the highlights: Car purchased at auction with no V5 since it was a financial repossession. I filled out the V62 form to apply for a V5. As per my trade policy, the car has been reported as being in my possession. While V5 is being delivered, use the vehicle with trade plates as a smoker. A few days after receiving the V5, I get a letter informing me that the car is untaxed and that I owe them a month's road fund licence. I replied by stating that the car has trade plates. get no response to the letter I have now got a letter from the DVLA indicating that I owe them £338 as an out-of-court settlement for an untaxed car. Given that I had replied to the first letter, it seems that they have used excessive force. I attempted to call them yesterday, but the whole choices list seemed to be tailored towards avoiding talking to people and implying that appeals are seldom successful. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
