Re: For the FTAO of JL
American Speed Fest is on at Brands hence the sudden increase in yank crap in Kent.

Re: Your fleet running reports
Booked my car in for EXTREME rust protection at the end of the month. It’s so dirty under the chassis that I don’t think it’s possible for me to clean it thoroughly without putting it on a proper lift and having a steam cleaner to get all the existing waxoyl off. Also they’ll remove the grommets and...

Re: Fancy a cheap V8?
New Mustang does indeed look crap. Can see the pre-facelift being the much more desirable model in decades to come. Kinda like how Americans drool about some random 74’ model year but not the 75 coz it had an uglier grill etc or am I just watching too much Gas Monkey Garage. (Model years made up as ...

Re: Ambidextrous car
I read this as amphibious car.
But the market for people who can be bothered with spending 8 hours to convert the car can’t be great can it? You won’t bother for your usual European road trip.

Re: Your fleet running reports
Well sucks very much as well then doesn't it. #fucktoday Oh and #fuckyesterday as well. 👍 I’m pragmatic about it all tbh, you and I are fortunate enough to afford nice things, so there has to be a yin to that yang. Can't disagree with that mentality! Was annoyed when I slightly curbed one of my CSL...

Re: WLTP (ND)
Latest one on this PH review https://www.pistonheads.com/news/ph-driven/bmw-z4-m40i-prototype-driven/38129 “Outside Europe this has been given a power boost to 382hp, but EU spec cars will come with a petrol particulate filter - yes, that's a thing now - limiting output to the 335hp of the M240i.” A...
Re: WLTP (ND)
The petrol particulate filters robbing 20% of the power seems rather extreme.

Re: Your fleet running reports
Most surprising fact this week. The Defender has an “oil service” warning :o Such sophistication, such technology, such wow. I thought it would be bollocks as the service book says the message will flash at 12,000 miles/1 year or 6000 miles if driven in some dusty third world dump. So why the hell i...

Re: Ring Lap Times
Chill, the race lap record will still stand though. And that’s the one usually quoted in everything as opposed to outright track record. The Ring has changed a fair bit since then too hasn’t it? Loads of bumps ironed out and visibility improved not to mention resurfaced countless times. I’d like to ...

Re: Adrian Newey spotted.....
When the McLaren showroom in Knightsbridge first opened I went to have a look and took my dog for a walk. It was quite late at night and coming towards the end of the launch party as only a few guests were left in the showroom. I Saw Ron outside with presumably his girlfriend. She pet my BF and Ron ...

Re: Big Trucks
The new Ram is already in production yet that concept photo is based on the outgoing model. The new Ram doesn’t look good compared to the old one, and being an entirely Fiat made product after their massive restructuring recently it will be interesting to see how well they hold up. Iirc Dodge had a ...

Re: Ferrari 430 Scuderia vs. 16M
The most surprising fact - Ferrari still on 16 constructors championships. That’s one way to keep the badge in date!

Harry isn’t very good when he is reviewing modern cars though, he just doesn’t give enough shits about it. Should they replace him with another American?

Re: Matt Le Blanc to leave TG.
Lots like 2019 will be a bad year for petrol heads watching tv. No Grand Tour, Too Gear will probably have a few crap series until the new member fits in. Ugh.
