It began with the British Grand Prix at Silverstone on 13 May, watched by King George VI and Queen Elizabeth, and won by Italian Giuseppe Farina. The rest as they say, is history #F175 bbc.co.uk/sport/extra/v7…

Probably not the last word on the #Jaguar rebrand but agree with the comments made on how right #Renault have got it… creativeboom.com/insight/why-th…

How does the reality of owning a luxury car match the dream? A new McKinsey survey sheds light on buyers’ priorities, current experiences, and future expectations. How I wasn’t interviewed for this I don’t know…! mckinsey.com/industries/aut…

Never understood why the second gen #Honda NSX wasn’t more popular – just look at it! Certainly gets my vote, especially since the frontend doesn’t make allowances for a number plate…

Always check the car park. Something everyone at #Goodwood will be telling you, but it also applies to grotty industrials estates in deepest Surrey… And here’s proof: 1979 #Ferrari GT4. Definitely a design that has got better with age.

Who said range anxiety is a new thing? Filling up this #Fiat 126 is gonna cost you less than 30 quid but only give you (max) 250 miles out of a full tank. Still, in this little thing, those miles are gonna provide plenty of smiles!

Made my morning hearing my letter read out on the latest episode of #SmithandSniff 🤠 Although the Raleigh Strika story still brings tears to my eyes (due more to testicular torsion than any reminiscing) 😣 You can listen to the episode below 🙃 youtube.com/watch?v=CnAPQn…

Not everything unexceptional managed to make it to #fotu this weekend! This #Rover Metro has been sitting on a forecourt near me for years now…

Tell me you’re in France without telling me you’re in Fra… Actually, this is British car (in case you’d not clocked the number plate). Driven all the way from Southampton and en route to Toulouse (where it originally came from). A long way to go in a 1974 #Citroen Ami 8 Break!

Austin-Healey 100M making for a quintessential English scene… But this spot is from the car park of the Intermarché in Prayssac, southwestern France… So shame its not a Citroën DS Bossaert instead.

C’est l’été ! And the #Fiat Topolino brings a smile to everyone’s face (or look of “WTF” – I’ll let you decide). Unlike the Ami it’s based on, you can buy this without doors – an ‘open air’ version with rope either side (tho that’s probably another reason not to buy one for most)

Always check the car park. Or in this case, always check behind the warehouse on the grotty industrial estate you happen to find yourself at, just in case there’s something interesting lurking. And in this case its a 1993 Series II #AlfaRomeo 33 Cloverleaf.
