3.8l is an absurdly large engine in a small car .

What's the deal with those V6s, stroker kit?

I used to be fiend for buckfast tbh.

I used to neck a bottle of it before I went out.

A man after my own heart, my favoured tipple was the most £5 bottle of white or red depending on my mood.

Can confirm that Foundation, Silo and Severance are all excellent.

They were mostly Americans

Aye, it's a new car. The 4.0 Coxster was just a range expansion.

They shout and swear in that Italian way, but they don't seem to stew and threaten violence in the same way as you get here

People in the UK seem predisposed to find the most stressful way to do anything tbh.

Like, the roads in a lot of Europe are chaotic but most seem to shrug it off. People here treat the commute like going to war.

Not really, you can still buy the 4 cyl one. The 6 cyl is a new model. It would be similar if they did a C63+ or whatever with the V8.

I can't see any situation where a company downsizes and then back tracks under current legislation.

It's not like they moved to phev for the performance benefits.

That is the aforementioned piles cushion.

I'm too much of a tart to put something that ugly on my bike.

I tell you, the tension between suffering for fashion and getting old and soft is real

I don't think I've been in a bike shop in 20 years tbh. There used to be a good indy in Penicuik that I went to but they shut.

Oh, I didn't know Tiso has bike shops. That's a good shout Mik, I always liked wandering round their Rose St shop when going out to shops was still a thing I did.

That looks like a good buy Mito, I was just thinking the other day that you don't see many of those XJs around. Which is a shame.

Dave's not crying. He's been chopping onions for his lasagne... for one.

Here, can someone recommend a comfyish saddle that doesn't look like a piles cushion?

My usual choice is killing me on a daily commute and I don't want to wear padded undershorts as neither taking my trousers off at work or sitting all day in something that feels nappyesque appeals.

Been watching the Bourne movies again, the first three are still excellent. Not sure that I've seen the later ones so I'll be watching them over the next couple of days.

ime people who are unusually expert in a very specific thing are prone to dunning kruger.

Those wing vents are one of my favourite details on any car so I’m for it.

Not so much a project as a vin plate and about a ton of scrap.
