I’ve been watching Neon Genesis Evangelion again

Are we allowed to spend the rrp of the M5 on a 520d instead?

Yeah, she would’ve been living at Bute House for most of the time too. The no comment interview would’ve been on the advice of her lawyers I assume.


Never been a big fan of Sturgeon or the SNP as I’ve mentioned before but I’ve also never been a fan of how criticism of her almost immediately slides ...

I would have posted this as an update to my Evora "new car" thread, but - as that's not on this forum - the fleet update will need to do.

Accepting this is no biggy to many on the forum, I’ve now owned the Evora for <subdued drum roll> 10 years. It has therefore become my first ever DECADER ...

Those retroshite auctions always look tempting but gambling is like the only vice I never really picked up so I’ve so far resisted

They’re not hard to get hold of now though.

Like, a whatsapp message and someone will deliver within the hour. No harder than ordering a takeaway.

There’s just no regulation or quality control because the entire industry is illegal.

We should legalise more because prohibition has never in the entire history of people worked tbh.

It’s probably one of those things that had previously been masked by drink driving rates but is becoming more noticeable as they’ve dropped.

I’d get in cars with people who were high in the 90s so it’s not new.

I wonder if there are ever gasps of horror or laughter at these unveilings. I expect everyone is on absolute best most polite behaviour so they’re allowed to go to future events and scared to show what they actually think.


They don’t care what people who can’t afford them think and people who ...

Worst part of filtering on a bike is trying to figure out if you’re in the right lane as there are cars parked on the road markings

That’s why I said something like it :lol:, although apparently it’s due to go into production this summer so I guess we’ll see.

What I want from an ev is sub £25k, keeps up with traffic but it doesn’t need to beat a Veyron, focus on range and efficiency over crazy performance.

Stuff like the ...

I like it for what it is

Big power evs don’t really do anything for me though. What I really want here is the Slate truck or something like it.

Looks like it’s bottom of the market for V8 Mustangs as well if that floats your boat

Chinese repro bodies, wonder how good they actually are...

Edit - oh, he answers the question at the end. They're not.


A couple of ex Donut Media guys are building an AE86 using one of those Aliexpress bodies.

Did you park next to the Ultima to give your battleship some scale Jobbo?

Everyone’s cars looking

While I wasn’t that fussed about the first Kimera I’m a big fan of that new one.

It’s like if they had kept developing the 037 until the end of Group B.

I’ve never seen that before, obviously where the catfish Camaro came from.

348 jaggy but 355 curvy, testarossa jaggy and 512tr still mostly jaggy.

512m curvier but uglier.

Apparently it’s not as good at the arena stunt shows but it’s faster on the side by side race courses.

I’m 100% sure I’ve seen a 355 in the same colour scheme as that 512 and it also looked amazing.
