Sorry but what exactly did I do ? Whenever I make a topic this guy repeatedly enters them and call me an idiot, sockie or whatever etc . You definitely can loose your temper because of that . I value opinion of some on this forum but guys like this tykemerc are are very common here too.
I like to have my opinion (like it or not) but I don't like being called an idiot for having it
Tyky got some mental issues with sockpuppets.
It all started after that famous incident, archive photo below -
It doesn't mean not posting at all but be aware that it you don't get the final 'no' on this forum.

It's a shame really. Apart from your pathological obsession with sock puppets and hatred of SY01, you generally make good posts. Be a good chap and give it a rest about the sockies.
Diseasex - don't provoke him.
Well if not provoking him means not posting at all then that's a 'no'

You think that dribble NAT posted makes me believe that you're not some sockpuppet? Don't be absurd, both he and Cojak have posted similar in the past and then it's turned out to be a different story.

Dont forget to check my IP this time as i'm working from home now. Who knows what you might discover, maybe i'm an imposter or an alien ?

And can you prove what your driving habits were? You may just have a heavy right foot or be a bit of a boy racer.
I can guarantee they can take a model of that car and get the 90 mpg they claim - the problem is yours for not driving as economically as they did during the official tests.
All i'm saying really is if they are rigging tests in a way that : if (isTest) then (reduceEmissions())
that might also be if (isTest) then (reduceConsumption()). So screw their tests really...
And i'm driving VERY economically.
Either way , hopefully they will target this problem finally, just saying.

So get to it and sue them for your financial loss, make sure you do it publicly, get the press involved and have a really nice shout about it in your impeccable Engrish.

Quick math : based on 10000miles a year for 2 years @ 110p/l for diesel:
58mpg @ 20000 miles = £1724
90mpg @ 20000 miles = 1099
so Seat / VW ripped me off on £625.
