Somehow the Plymouth Road Runner doesn't feel like the kind of car that you could just go to a dealership and buy, and read about in a brochure like any ordinary car.

The Citroen Xsara suffered one of the least sympathetic facelifts ever. Went from wedgy to swollen and lumpy. These alloys have a vague Escort Cosworthness about them, though.

To whoever it is that keeps driving an E62 BMW M6 past my hotel, late at night, with their foot down. Sounds tremendous. Please carry on.

Late 90s girl group names that were spelled in a catchy way were silly. If they had made a clever pun, they'd have been fine, but Tyce isn't a thing, nor is Teeq. Although I really hope there's a girl whose antique furniture restoration business is called Miss Teak.

A quick reminder that, for a wonderful decade, you could walk into your friendly MG Rover dealership and drive away with a reasonably priced mid-engined sports car.

I've always quite liked the rear lights of the 1996+ Daihatsu Charade Saloon. Looks like more effort went into those than into anywhere else on the car.

Just watching an episode of The Good Life, five years older than me. I know the world has, arguably, become better in some ways over the intervening 49 years, but I'm not sure primetime TV comedy has.

More than thirty years since the Ford Probe went on sale in the UK. I still think it's a looker. And the Mazda V6 sounded great.
