Hehe, the cat we had when I grew up was completely and utterly obsessed with home made apple pie, she knew that she wasn’t supposed to get up on tables, and even fish or meat was something she could resist, but not home made apple pie.
It isn’t really a dream car, just a solid car that has what I need.
This is my first car, I got my license back in 2022, and bought this car in 2023, you have more options when you are 30+ years…
This means I have few other cars to compare it to, I drove a 2014 Golf at my driving school, and later my dad’s 2016 Volvo V90. I also got the opportunity to drive a Skoda in Spain in 2024.
The Leon is just the car I need, small, yet capacious, it is very comfortable and fun to drive.
There are some stuff I dislike, some that are unsafe and some that are brilliant.
It has a lot of power for a standard hatchback, 205bhp with both the electric and petrol engines running, to get the most out of it, I have found that I need to put it in sport, and set the car to recharge the battery as you are driving, this keeps petrol engine running and available for fast launches, if performs best when the the battery is at 20-30%, as it has the ability to get power from the battery while using the battery as a dump to shove regenerated power and improve engine breaking, this effect is is great until about 85% charge, when it gradually disappears without warning.
The interior is quite plasticky, but the leather steering wheel is quite excellent, it has great controls for media and ACC.
The rest of the interior controls is a mix of ok, and terrible, most controls are touch that lacks illumination so finding them at night is out of the question, those that has illumination are located awkwardly on a downward slope below the steering wheel to the left, luckily I only need them for demisting.
Plenty of functions are controlled through the infotainment, it is ok, but annoying.
Overall, I like it!
I have a 2021 Seat Leon FR PHEV, it is advanced enough.
To be perfectly frank, I’d be happy with a Volvo 960 from '96, as long as I could integrate CarPlay in it.
Is the Universal Media Disc format for the PSP really involved in human farts?
This is partly why I haven’t got into air rifles, I have wanted to for a long time, but there is no good place to shoot it nearby.
Some may say that I should just go out in the woods and shoot there, but I don’t want to spread lead in nature.
I know there are lead free pellets, but I have heard mixed opinions about them.
Why an air rifle specifically?
Because I can get a low power one (10J muzzle energy) without a license, and I can’t be arsed to get a license for a proper firearm as it requires a fair commitment here.
It isn’t, it is the least bad
