Re: Toyota GR Yaris
Oh, I dunno. I just assumed they had changes they needed to homologate so they were drumming up sales. £60k is a bit stron g even in light of my previous flippant comment. Unless Im missing something, it's a £20k body kit, or a £2k body kit and £18k of exclusivity. It's got a donut button. Does tha...

Re: State of the Roads
The awkward mix of lots of rain, damp chilly winters and a couple of weeks a year where it’s hot enough to melt the roads.
Plus years of poorly applied surface dressing which creates ruts and broken surfaces.

Re: Should I be getting paid for appearing on a TV documentary?
I regularly eat eggs a month, sometimes more past their date using the water float method and not got a bad one yet.

Re: Today’s want
Just stick a lotus Carlton gearbox in.
That’s the main thing I seem to remember people talking about at the time - the corvette gearbox

Re: Other boring motor race.
Btcc is at snetterton, it’s been raining on and off all day. Last race and half the track is dry, half soaked, field is a mix of slicks and dry tyres!

Re: Teh Spotted Thread
I have never seen one of those before!
Only cabrio I’ve seen was the one built for Mrs Agnelli based on an evo.
I like the ducktail spoiler. I expect it’s somewhat flexible on cornering

Re: Bucket list items.
I don’t really have anything exciting. I’d like to get all of the cars I currently own back on the road at some point before I die, that’s about it

Re: Your fleet running reports
I probably wouldn’t want the car back, it just wouldn’t be the same. However I’d like the people caught. Probably wouldn’t pay £260 a year for a miniscule chance of that happening though
Re: Choose
Tyre technology moves on, I wonder how a landsail compares to the original equipment 30 year old Michelins or whatever it would have worn at launch?

Re: Bye Bye Sunak..
I’m not voting because I have some ridiculous notion that if turnout is historically low all the parties might have a think about why that might be and make some changes.
I know they won’t, but none of them deserve the effort to get out and cross the box.

Re: Choose
I’d still take an F40 over anything ideally an LM, but I’m not going to be too fussy. Mclaren f1 lm road car would always be second to one, but definitely very high on my list. Ah, didn’t even read the options properly, thought the last one was Singer or anything else. From that list F1, wouldn’t gi...
Re: Cazoo
A friend bought a car from them, it had dodgy tyres and was losing coolant. Of course they collected and refunded with no problem, but just transporting the car twice probably wiped out any profit they had in it. You don’t need many like that before the business starts being unsustainable. Cars didn...

Re: Bye Bye Sunak..
I’m probably not going to bother voting. I’m not going to pretend I’m happy with the way things have been going, but I’m not sure labour would have done much better or will do in the future. It’s very easy to make great sound bites saying how bad everything is when you’re in opposition, but they nev...

Re: Seatbelts on planes
Several other nasty injuries from people and things getting thrown around. I don’t take my seatbelt off in the car when there’s no other traffic around and put it back on when a crash is more likely. I don’t think they should force you to always wear one, but it seems like common sense to still have...
