And I'm happy on this occasion that it's a Sunday, but usually equally happy with Saturdays. Usually quieter roads on Sundays though IME.

Re: Edinburgh Meet - DATE CONFIRMED September 16th
never spotted a saturday run, makes better sense to have the run on saturday then people have the sunday to chill before the monday back at work, but i suppose a saturday run will always be busyier on the roadsAdamski wrote:THis one 'cos it was when most were available, the last one I did was a Saturday run

Re: Edinburgh Meet - DATE CONFIRMED September 16th
OK, that was a bit of a FAIL: I'm supposed to be at the meeting point for this meet right now, but I'm not...
Hopped into the car this morning, pressed the start button - nothing but a flicker of the electronics and wouldn't start. I've been getting a "battery low" warning since I bought the car but haven't had a problem til now, but I guess my faffing around with the headlight (replacing a bulb) yesterday was enough to run down the battery.
Oh well, hope you have a good drive folks

Re: Edinburgh Meet - DATE CONFIRMED September 16th
I think it is just the battery - I've been ignoring the warnings on the dash for long enough
5 year old car that's done 76k miles. My Z4 was older (although less miles) and never saw any battery issues, but suspect a new battery might be the answer. That's the first time since I owned by Renault Clio in 2006 that I've had a car not start/breakdown on me...

Re: Edinburgh Meet - DATE CONFIRMED September 16th
Yes,never had to replace a battery on a car either,ally,and hopefully wont need to...but it appears that quite a few ppl on here have had to renew their M roadster/coupe batteries in particular,which is strange/worrying??a11y wrote:I think it is just the battery - I've been ignoring the warnings on the dash for long enough

Re: Edinburgh Meet - DATE CONFIRMED September 16th
I reckon it's just extra demands on batteries from all the toys: sat nav, amps/subs in the sound system, extended lighting, iDrive, etc in my case.
ECP have 15% off batteries at the moment so I'm taking that as a sign
