My question was more aroun a 18 plate 100k miles x5 versus a five year old Skoda 50k machine. It’s the principle I’m trying to understand about high mileage new versus old low mileage

Thanks for a detailed answer. That’s exactly what I am trying to find out. How can you tell between the motorway cruiser treated nicely and the ex rental car that was thrashed.

Thanks yes I am looking for something nice. I saw a nice x5 two years older with 100k on the clock. That will probably go for 20k.

Can I have your thoughts on buying a three year old 00k miles car versus a six year old 40k miles car I think high mileage and new car is better than old with no mileage

Thanks so much all for Your help I’ve decide to buy a new worktop and get a induction hob with a separate oven I ll have to cut out the worktop etc which is not hard but can I wire an induction hob and single oven to the same backing plate? I’m thinking of having two cables run to the same...

Thanks all. So the bottom line is what. Replace the entire cooker with an electric one? Like for like. I cannot run gas there sadly but I did think of buying a built in oven and ceramic job although that would require a new worktop

Hi the oven and grill are fine - It is the rings which trip whenever each of them are switched on - So we cant turn any of the rings on but the oven works fine I have disconnected all sockets from the ring and isolated it to just the rings. Is it worth repairing or should I just replace?

I have a five year old electric cooker and when the rings are switched on the rcd trips. This has just happened and I ve never had to replace or fix it does anyone know if an element in the hot plate causes this. In the past with electric ovens this is the reason but I ve never done it with a...

I dont know if I have plastic or metal !! Surely if they are suitable for metal they will be suitable in plastic - I could understand the other way round but not this way!

I had this installed a few years ago 2018 bu a qualified electrican I had to take a look and I saw that the blank plates had metal blanking plates - Is this normal because in the past I would have expected to have plastic covers Having metal there makes me scared to touch that part - Should...

Wow john you are amazing thanks a lot - Does the recessed shower fit into an exposed? i would not mind reusing the housing to keep the shower cubicle watertight and intact

They do not make them anymore !!! My shower is approx 25 years old appareently

Hi I posted on the previous thread and we have decided to just replace the shower mixer as it is too old - The problem is we want something that will fit the existing cutouts of the aqualisa so the no holes or alterations are needed I have a quick look on toolstation etc but I could not find...
