Scares the sh!t out of me that Corbyn has a shot a power.

I think the Zaf-C is one of the few out there with old-school traditional slush box autos.Astra K, obviously.
All the better for it, liking the Daddy bus a commuter.
Tactically speaking, I don't blame him. He is ahead in the polls, and the flack from not having the balls to face Andrew Neil is likely to be less than the flack he would get after being torn to pieces by him.
The Tories probably reason that the more Corbyn is in front of the cameras, and the less Boris is in front of them, the better their results are likely to be.
Well, straight away he has lost 48% of the vote (and probably a lot of the 52% as well, seeing as he has, by most peoples reckoning come up with a worse deal than Theresa May). So that depends how that splits between the other numpties...One for LC0112G as he appears in the know for these things....Tunnie,
From the Tory election pledges, one thing that sparked my interest was raise in 40% threshold from 50k to 80k, do you think this would actually take place and if so over how much time?
Can't see them doing it in one hit?
Accept that as a high rate tax payer, you are classed as one of the rich people (as the country has run out of truly rich people and businesses), thus under the inevitable Labour government, you personally are expected to pay for the lame and lazy of society.
Which is why I seriously hope and pray Boris gets a solid majority and Labour get no way near power.

Why do you think I have any knowledge of this? My view is all politicians are liars (and this lot are worse than most), and all manifesto pledges are at best a 'wish list' of things they would like to implement if circumstances permit (which they rarely do). Why don't you ask your prospective Conservative parliamentary candidate the question - he/she will be in a better position to answer it.
My guess would be that if it were to happen it would be over the course of the next parliament - so gradually over 5 years probably. I'm not sure what they've promised on national insurance though - NI is sort of linked to tax rates. Up to £50K you currently pay 20% tax and 12% NI, so a total of 32% tax. Above £50K it's 40% tax and 2% NI, so a total of 42%. The delta is therefore 'only' 10% not the 20% headline change in tax rate, so the change might only result in half the saving you might expect.
Anything I should look out for on the 1.4T?
Not on that derivative no, the later one is direct injection so a little more sensitive, the one you have is a larger version of the chain driven cam 1.2 used in Corsa etc plus variable valve timing and a few other bits.
Regular oil change is king on them, then they just work and last
