Thought this was woodsmoke not tyre or heaven forbid engine smoke forum😳😳

sounds loud and a handful in less than perfect conditions, not that nimble or easy to park at a guess

had use of Bentley Turbo R few years ago like cruising around in you front parlour with added acid when desired

also had a huge back seat.........

Looked at one about £1500 but very well built. Do you prefer pellet or charcoal?

I saw your chimney then realised yours is charcoal.

Tbh i love charcoal, but ive had little experience on pellet, my friend in Florida has a pellet , and its ok vut ive not used it, its easy to maintain a temp as its basically an oven, and that to me is a bit boring.
