A lot of owners and big miles though…

It's been a split between Project Cars 2 and Halo Infinite for me. I'm hoping a new driving game comes out soon.

Is nicking wheels even a thing anymore? You used to regularly see cars up on piles of wood missing wheels years ago but not seen one for years.

My partner is insured to drive the M135 but knows it’s absolutely as a last resort. She’s never driven it and hopefully never will and goes for any of my cars. I let her use my 430 Gran coupe nice and had a phone call at work as she couldn’t work out how to put it in drive…

I was out for a meal yesterday, I had fish and chips with mushy peas served in a separate pot, first thing I did was pour them out. They’re just making washing up for themselves .

Nah, I'm currently sulking about your blantant pancakeist stance. Agreed they're not a fry up but your tone was offensive to those of us that are non-breakfast-binary. Pancakes & maple syrup are a regular weekend treat in this house and I won't hear a bad word against them. So there. Pancakes h...

Haven’t they already done McLaren?

I know it's been overplayed, but I still enjoy a singalong to it. Oh the shame.

Yep, it’s a great track.

Thought you sold that? Changed your mind or just not flogged it yet?

No interest but every time I drive it I don't want to part with it. I'll be saving money on the new commute at least.

Oh! And I get nervy about the noise the 1 makes! I don't know what's been done to it, I suspect the BMW Motorsports pipe thar was common and maybe a silencer beleye but on boost it screams.

I've only ever done 1 outdoor kart race - a 4hr team endurance event with twin-engined karts...erm... somewhere around North England. It was some time ago. Warm-up & quali were dry - by the end of that my neck and ribs were aching a bit from the lateral-G's. I was thinking "shit - I'm neve...

Brawn GP - The Impossible Formula One Story.

Really enjoyed it, by, Luca De Montezemolo is still very bitter isn't he?

Bizarre, I knew what it would be before I clicked, better with the actual pilot doing it though

Yep, Malcom Campbell set a few here.

Yep, they don't taste like they used too.

What’s a bargain basement car that’s super cheap to insure? I really want to get something small and simple but really don’t give two hoots what it is, the main thing is cheap insurance. I’ll probably only do about 2000 miles a year in it. So far Ford focus £855 Ford fiesta £717 Skoda Fabian £689 V...
