thinking about getting rid of my range rover

few niggle problems on it but local range rover specalist takes bloody forever to fix anything, I could get a somehting new, drop this ne at the garage and then sell it when it's sorted

it was £4500 getting a suspension leak fixed and took 8 weeks - mostly them waiting on parts :-(
(it's a lift the body off the chassis job to get to the leak)

looked about but can;t see much else I like, I really like the range rover seating position and view

I've got a sport now, thinking might get a vogue next - practically the same car tbh

might get a p400e - the hybrid one, 300hp petrol engine and 100ho electric - but heating variying reports, some poeple saying they're awesome and some people saying the petrol engine is too gutless when you run out of battery so revs it's tits off

can;t really decide tho, it's a big wedge to spend on a car

plus...  I don't want the appearace if a car that's too nice, just encoureges people to rob me :-(

Similar story, I made a tenner but again can't moan, shame as Indo just ran out of steam (Bennett) At the end.

Oof, for a £50 stake with 4 horses placed, to only get £72 return stinks a bit  :gag:

Still, better than a loss

Big odds changes as usual, what I didn't notice until today is that this year best odds guaranteed only applies to bets made as of 8AM today it just gets worse and worse value wise  :gag:

At least the odds on Coko beach have halved, good value there, so it'll refuse to run now  :D

My original low end shortlist was:

Mahler Mission (16/1)
Noble Yeats (22/1)
Corach Rambler (5/1)
Vanillier (10/1)
I Am Maximus (9/1)
Kittys Light (14/1)
Panda Boy (14/1)

But a lot of the odds tanked anyway in the week (I should have got in sooner tbh), so now I've gone for something more like your bets:

£5 E/W

Nassalam 20/1
Minella Indo 20/1
Delta Work 20/1

£2 E/W

Foxy Jacks 66/1
Coko Beach 40/1
Stattler 40/1
Galvin 33/1
Kitty's Light 12/1

Total staked: £50

Total to return: £868.30 (yeah, right  :lol:)

Well, 2nd year no show so it looks like the bet365 mega deal has been consigned to the coffin of history  :thumbdown:

I'll go for a similar format to last year without the deal, aforementioned Kitty's Light is 12/1, too low odds for me.


£5 E/W

Nassalam 20/1
Coko Beach 40/1

£3.50 E/W

Foxy Jacks 66/1
Galvin 33/1
Minella Indo 20/1

£2.50 E/W

Stattler 40/1
Delta Work 25/1

---

Total staked £51


Fingers crossed it's not a repeat of last year, where 4 of the top 6 horses were 12/1 or under :gag:

Excellent copy pasta



Two horses I've been told to keep an eye on are Nassalam if it's muddy (romped the Welsh GN) And Kitty's light, both are hardly under the radar and I doubt will offer great odds.

I'm going to wait till later in the week and see if bet365 do the mental match your stake deal again  :worried:
