Nothing stands out as particularly worse than the other. Beetle and Rancho would be great still to have

in rough order
Marina 1.3
Marina 1.8 (but iirc it was badged as a 1.3)
Mini
Metro (one trip had 6 of us and a gas cooker in it)
LHD Beetle from a US neighbour (was on California plates when they ...

My sister picked a good weekend to visit her mate in Dubai! She's on her flight home now so I feel ok posting this. Was due to come back yesterday but got rebooked onto a flight that left this morning. She was having a great time at Yas Marina race track (an all you can eat and drink buffet with ...

What about Klaebo though. Five golds and he could get one more

well, I didn't know Porsche was actually called 'Dr. Ing. h.c. F. Porsche AG' in full

Also, RIP.

I've left it very late then last two years and seen significant drops in prices. The only challenge has been, some preferred options being more limited.

Agreed, not paying that amount for a week in Europe but there are indeed people doing it, I know a few. It's mental.


Ta. Some friends went ...

Not having kids gives me the ability to book in term time so obviously it’s far far cheaper

I’ve found love holidays cheap, but the flight options aren’t always the best, and you have to be careful as it will occasionally try and send you home to a different airport. Never had to deal with ...

Crazy isn’t it. 4 years ago we went to some shitty all inclusive in spain, in term time and it was around £2.2k for the 3 of us for a week or so. A few years later we looked again, and the same place for a week in school holiday time was £4.5k!

There’s no fucking way i’m spending that sort of ...

Idea. Any recommended campsites on Holland or Germany? Electric hook up, clean pool and toilets, plenty of hot water for showers and washing up.

How much do people actually pay for a European beach holiday? For the past few years we've been camping in France. Two weeks, ferries, campsite, fuel, all food and all other spending for a family of four, has consistently cost about £3400.

Fancying a change, I just looked at a hotel in Greece that ...

Find myself browsing these

Fabia was great for this, had a larger brake pedal, which also made left foot breaking easier.

> The bloc may also allow EVs to make use of range extenders — small backup fuel engines

I wonder where this puts things like the Nissan ePower, where the petrol engine is a generator for the electric motor full time iirc (or at least, I think it's more than just a range extender)

Ooh, interesting question. I think I got my plate in 1999, or maybe earlier.
540i, 306, CLK, Megane, Fabia, so 5.

MOT time for the Yeti. Failed, but only on a drop link so that should get sorted tomorrow. Now on 72k miles, 64k of which with us, over the last 11 1/2 years.

Targa Tasmania is back after 3 years in the *ahem* wilderness after a number of deaths and a falling out with Australia's main motorsport body.

Whilst the rules seem to have been made stricter and speed limits imposed the fact the lead three cars are a R35 GTR, an Exige V6 and a Viper ACR is ...

Max for the win then, as the two McLarens take each other out at some point in the race?

That is lovely. Simple, great colour, not too many screens.


Maybe with this mod (or find one that's had it done), but the purple is lovely!

Thanks for the reminder, I need to get the Yeti booked in for its MOT from next week.
