Sorry to moan - but why can people not just use the 'reply' button instead of quoting multiple posts just to add their own single line comment - make the page huge and unwieldy.... thanks :-)

... because the quotes above are given conversational context in relation to a specific element being discussed, rather than in relation to the whole topic?

Agreed, but it can get a wee bit tedious, especially when a few photos are included. 🙂

As kmpowell summarised so perfectly, just a bit of off topic chatter in a thread that had quietened down considerably in other respects. Unlike a social media thread it can’t be taken into a separate sub-thread for direct replies.

Apologies if I’ve mildly inconvenienced anyone for a few seconds. I get where you’re coming from though.
I’ll zip it now  :lipsrsealed:

Unzipping large threads to read them is going to be an even bigger hassle.   :grin:
Whey ya bugger! It's finally arrived after an 8 month wait....

Well,i’ve started on the list of cars I made during lockdown-the first one I looked at (website) had a woman’s face keep popping up asking if I needed help-asked her 2 things,couldn’t answer either,said she’d pass it on to the sales team,along with my details-still heard nothing.
The 2nd..sigh,has given me a taste of what i’m gonna be up against-dealers clap trap!
Got sent a nice ‘personalised’ video tho,so it wasn’t all bad.
Two cars in,naffed off already.

Ah, the old 'text chat'... I try that now and again. On the rare occasion that I don't get 'unable to connect', I invariably know more than they do or they need to ask someone else or said manufacturer isn't telling us. Pointless.
