Been gone a while now

Many of you will likely recall that I was forced out of our Freelander through Khan introducing his money-making ULEZ expansion. Although it was taken in p/ex by a dealer just south of the Dartford Crossing I believe it was subsequently MOT’d in Penrith (?) so hopefully it’s continuing to enjoy life somewhere. Not sure if it’s ever signed on the forum, reg GK63YWW
Any way, been having a tidy up and came across a spare key fob for the car and wondered if it’s any use to anyone or is it only good for that specific car? Think it may have been surplus from RRUK upgrading the originals?
It’s in good order although the rubber cover’s coming away slightly at one end.
Perhaps pm as I’m obviously not on here on a regular basis

Hi Ian, I bought a Skoda Karoq Sportline 1.5dsg which was a nice motor, good gearbox and turn of speed and being petrol, decent mpg.
However, it started to give me backache when I’d been driving it for over an hour regardless of however I set up the seat. Sadly it got to the point where I thought we should perhaps think about looking elsewhere and fortunately Significant Other agreed. To this end the Jaguar F-Pace appealed but the petrol variants were few and far between. Drove a diesel but nowadays don’t do the mileage to buy diesel. I then spotted a RR Velar P300 HSE R-Dynamic with the same JLR dealers and picked it up Wednesday. It’s only a 2litre petrol but still turns out 296bhp. Beautifully appointed interior, it ‘wafts’ along the road 😏
