Beany is correct however if this is a big main dealer I’d expect them to get their shit together and sort it, otherwise I’m sure an email to someone important would get it done. If it’s a smaller place I’d never use them again.

Save a bit for when the high pressure fuel pump explodes and you’ll be alright

The ones I’ve seen so far have just been like the board from a laptop. Single high performance CPU running the whole show.

It’s the new thing for manufacturers - Tesla, BMW new class, Rimac, they’re combining all modules into a few very high performance ones. On an EV they save some weight and gain range but I’m not sure how good it is for future serviceability. Say your GPS system goes offline, it’s no longer a simple ...

Quite liked this one

Yeah, both come up as “Automotion Factors Ltd” which sounded familiar!

£110 for OEM Brembo stuff (off eBay in the end, cheaper than AutoDoc)


I've had mixed experiences with autodoc. Exceptional range of parts, but usually quite slow to arrive.

By far my fave is Carparts in Motion via ebay:

If you wait until the end ...

Oh this is the Japanese guy who was publicly looking for a girlfriend to take into space. That’s literally all I know about him because of the ‘billionaire in search of lover’ headlines at the time

Bit phallic from above

It's tempting for a quick flip but not worth gambling much, and from the way it's worded initial shares will be offered to those who want to invest the most, which I imagine will be well into 6 figure sums. I believe almost every tech IPO has eventually returned to its IPO price.
All that said ...

There are always a few at shows, but I assume aside from the few that are paraded at Goodwood, the rest are all replicas.

The roadster version just looks much better and correct. The coupe roofline is giving me Chevy Crossfire dog crimping one off vibes.

The roof looks wrong

It doesn't go into the whole story. Apparently Brembo F1 brakes are shit. Lewis spent all of last year begging Fred to change but they couldn't due to sponsorship. They reached a compromise for this year with Lewis secretly running Carbon Industries discs and pads with Brembo calipers since the ...

I think they should just limit interviews to F1 personnel tbh. Even if the celebrity being interviewed is into F1 it’s never a good convo. “Who are you here to support” I don’t think anyone gives a shit Martin nor is there the time to have an actual convo. Go talk to the engineers, it’ll be more ...

Dave!

There is someone on twitter that makes these. They look tacky though!
Edit - found it

That’s cool and handy that it takes film which is still available. Old stuff made before plastic was invented is pretty crazy.

Oil, from the crankcase oil breather.

Leclerc - most overrated driver in F1 this century.
