I prefer a Fiesta Poplar, but that does look quite nice.

Fiver says he was paying absolutely no attention to anything around him Because AutoPilot, shat his pants when the car beeped at him and made the initial move, then he probably responded by mashing and sawing at the wheel like a five year old with a Tomy Racing Turbo toy. But he's evidentally invest...

Comment mito mentioned https://twitter.com/teslalightshows/status/1796109412911693911?s=46&t=Kg3-G23T5OptIvzAdzKk1w More specifically, Autopilot made the initial move, but he overcorrected and he threw it in the ditch, it sounds like. https://twitter.com/Teslalightshows/status/17962022105832982...

Your Irregular Reminder that BeamNG still exists and is still somewhere between a deadly serious physics sim, and a goofy bit of fun and is absolutely worth the £20 asked of it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fos_saGsry0 There have been many updates since, from 0.32: The kinda goofy part: https://w...

Oh shit you're right. Thats £42k in todays money!

Today? I think about, well, a quick google suggests £15-20k.

And I do mean quick, for cars of that vintage and that rarity, I'm not sure if there's really an 'average' price?

It's fun that every time a new £40k hot hatch comes out people act surprised at the price, like it's not been the going rate for about 5 years :lol: It's also, as I've been learning when comparing some classes of car to each other twenty years apart, not that far from inflation. IE a Sunny GTI-R, a...

Home Alone house for sale. Lots of (Mercuns?) complaining on twitter that they’ve not kept the interior as it was for the film (although apparently most of it was filmed on a set, it was modelled on the actual house interior). Do they....do they think the film distributors own every house they film...

Feels like longer ratios than a ZF8, because I'm assuming that's gotta be well north of 500bhp, and my M135i goes through the gears quicker than that with it's paltry 320-odd!

I was rather unimpressed with the number of potholes on the M40 yesterday. Local authority maintained roads I sort of understand the maintenance issues but Highways Agency? That’s just evidence of how badly run the country is currently. More than a few times on company meeting trips, I've been stuc...

Every so often I get an urge and start looking at old Corvettes. Why the fuck is almost everything which is imported here an automatic. I can't think of anything worse than a 4 speed auto in a car like that :roll: Because in the US, manual boxes are reserved for serious, hardcore drivers and they t...

I don't even think it's a real policy proposal, I think they're just trying to maintain engagement and drown out other voices on social media.
