1 CO on a Freelander near Silverstone today

RIP Bruce. One of the good guys.

I’m a member of a WhatsApp group, a member of which was selling their car on a Sale Or Return basis through a relatively well known independent dealer. They sold his car for quite a lot less than the agreed price, and then didn't tell him that it had even been sold. After the date it had sold...

Busted!! It’s the only one that got away, until now that is! 😁

Very nice!

Wait, what ⁉️😳

Wow, cracking spec 👌🏻

That’s a lovely thing 😎

Not this one 👀😳😬

Despite a late night last night, we were up annd out early in one of my favourite cars for a 350 mile round trip to visit Ian Callum and have a look around his workshop. It was a beautiful day for it. Ended up driving in convoy through the Cotswolds with some lovely metal (or should I say...

There is less maintenance in the sense that there is no oil & filter or spark plug change required for the engine, and brakes last longer but still wear out. The transmission will still need an oil change,with less fluid than an auto, but most cheap small cars are manual, so in reality it’s an...

You’re right.

It probably is! 😁 Perfect for driving in the rain though as dropping the drivers window results in water coming into the car, as the wipers push the water to the offside A pillar, and the high pressure spot immediately behind the pillar means it runs in through the open window and ends up on...

Up and out early with Baby D - who is now as tall as me 🥲 - for a trip to the barbers, and a top down drive. Picked up a McDonalds breakfast to take home to the fam, just as the rain started. Raised the roof as I rolled around the drive thru lane, and deployed one of my favourite features in...
