1700+ miles over a week through six countries and the most interesting spot was a car hauler full of new Lada Nivas seen in Germany. Either I'm getting jaded or nothing very exciting crossed my path.

Didn't know they still made them, nor that anybody outside of Russia bought them.

Started making them again a few years back, surprisingly good off road apparently.

Spotted : Pete (RevsRUs).

First spotted a couple of tables over from us as I tucked into my lunch in a nice west end italian.

Then - his car, blending into the background like a very sore thumb. 😎 lovely.

Nice car, but more importantly-

That is an image of a delightful Smoked Sausage Supper.

Most places will do them battered for you if you ask - and it is better. :geek:

A bloke goes into a fish and chip shop and asks the girl behind the counter for a sausage and chips.

"Do you want your sausage battered" she asks.

"No", he replies, "do you want your fanny slapped???"

Frog and Toad are walking down the road, when suddenly Toad’s arse falls off.

Frog rushes to pick it up and asks “Hey! Do you want your arse Toad?”

“D’you want your baws booted?” Replies Toad.

And they all lived happily after

Only a mile or so from where he lives, so yes I think your assumption is correct.

The sound of it certainly made my head turn in a flash. It's a lovely thing.

Saw a Q8 today. Possibly the least ugly/stupid looking of the coupe-4x4s.

Starts at £65k though :shock:

That rear spoiler is just hideous!
Went to fireworks at Ascot racecourse last night. Walked there with another couple of families, including the chap who just bought a 570S. We popped in to the McLaren dealership and I had a look around this one. It’s incredible in the flesh/carbon. The looks make so much more sense when you can see where the air will flow etc.

They were covering up a new delivery that looked a lot like a Senna GTR, but was apparently “just” an MSO version of a bog standard Senna. The carbonweave was incredible and they can now add metal to the weave for extra shiny!
Cheers,

Ian
