@tvprp Spend our tax on the pot holes which are far more dangerous!

🚔 Roads Policing Special Constabulary officers have been out this weekend at sites around Oxford keeping roads safe. Tickets issued and vehicles seized for offences including no insurance. 📍 Can you guess the locations? #RoadSafety #Oxford #SaferRoads #S9410 #S9130 #S8776

@PorscheSauce Jo Bamford's?

1985 Porsche 928S spotted in Belgravia. Design light years ahead of its time … 🚀 European car of the year in 1978.

@AutoPap @perfectionvalet then!

Hasn’t been washed in a while, so called in someone who knows what they’re doing.

@robert_lyman I grew up in Waltham St Lawrence!

In my spare time I run a village pub. It’s the centre of a small Berkshire village, and has been in use as a pub since 1723 (we’ve owned the building - built c. 1400 - since 1608). We’ve just run the numbers. It’s not looking good. Net profit is down a third of pre-covid levels. We had seen some small improvement, but starting from a pretty desperate position. Everything now seems to be against us. We were recovering after COVID, but the latest government taxes are like a torpedo under the water line. We’re facing impossible rises in staff costs and other taxes. The latest survey by the British Institute of Innkeeping suggests only 1 in 3 Hospitality business are currently profitable. This will drop to 1 in 10 after the budget rises in April. The result is inevitable. Thank you @RachelReevesMP and @10DowningStreet. Don’t ever start pretending you know anything about businesses like ours, or even care.

@tiff_tv Totally agree Tiff, let’s hope Lando supports Oscar when he wins the championship.

Love Lando but now so admire Oscar for the way he's supported the winner when he must all the time be dreaming of what could have been.

@HillF1 @haveigotnews Well said Damon!

@haveigotnews Oh Sweet Jesus. I didn't expect this from you guys. Really? Pathetic. The kid literally had no life other than racing and working towards winning. So we should all start in the slums should we? Like you did. Eh? Lets have a closer look at your story.....

Lando Norris’ World Championship win is a true Formula one underdog story: he came from relative poverty, with his parents struggling to make ends meet on less than a billion pounds

@IanCallum @timoldland Ian, @alpina_classic are still lovely. Hoping finally BMW buy Jaguar. Your thoughts….

Erm… nope. Sorry Toyota, but this looks like one of those AI slop things where someone said ‘make a Camry like a supercar’. Fussy yet bland is a really tough thing to pull off.

@AutoPap Alpina B3GT!

In other news BMW produce probably one of the nicest estate cars. Love the 5.

@goodwoodrevival Definitely!

#Jaguar's first pure racing car was the D-Type and it was designed for one purpose alone: to race at #LeMans. Its tailfin is instantly recognisable and contributed to its success at the Circuit de la Sarthe, but it's not just the French circuit that saw the success of the D-Type. At #GoodwoodRevival we see the iconic car take on the Sussex Trophy and it manages to turn heads at every corner. Is the D-Type Britain's coolest sportscar?

@AutoPap Yep 14 years and 185,000 miles later!

Over on insta some influencers are having a meltdown about 911’s going down in value. Perhaps keep them for longer than 9 months so you can actually enjoy them?

@timpitt100 @alpina_classic B3GT in the background too!

Porsche 911 S/T spotted in the car park at Bedford Autodrome. One of 1,963 made, with the 525hp flat-six from a 992 GT3 RS and the narrower, wingless body of a GT3 Touring. Other niceties include a shorter-ratio manual gearbox, thinner glass and centre-lock magnesium wheels.

@LUDENClassics When I started driving 911s back in the 993 days we used to wave to one an other.

Passed a few 991/992s recently and not one driver has smiled or waved, and I was thinking that people who buy new or nearly new 911s are less likely to be car enthusiasts than the rest of us. Young chap in an old Boxster grinned and nodded this morning, which was nice. I know it's a real car bore thing, but people in similar cars appreciating each other's car is always a nice thing and does brighten up the day a bit.

This Sadler-Chevrolet MkII saw no way to pass a #Jaguar D-Type on the road - so it took to the grass instead! #83MM

@tony_jardine @CamelTrophyClub @LandRover You look very cool!👌

Here’s one dug out @CamelTrophyClub in Amazon at the end of a brilliant event! Survival and a beer! @LandRover #YoungJardine

@MacchinaRomeo If it ends up looking like that, it doesn’t move the brand on.

Thanks everyone for your comments on my take on the new Jaguar. Certainly got people talking, which is what Car Twitter is about. Really appreciate your comments. Keep them coming please 🙏

Autumn Blast! Fantastic end to another great season.

@GoodwoodRRC Cannaught British Racing Green of my Jaguar’D’ Type featured in the picture!

We've probably all now seen the piece of art that is the British Racing Green Ferrari 499P Modificata, but it got us thinking about how it might be the best choice for any car ever. Originally used in the early 1900s, when Britain first competed in the Gordon Bennett Cup they were forced to choose a different colour from the national flag colours as they had been taken by other companies. The 1903 race was held in Ireland, so as a mark of respect the English cars were painted Shamrock Green. Which car comes to mind when you think of that paintwork?

@RomansCars Neo

Oak Green (Top) 🌳 or Oak Green Neo (Bottom)🌳

@freddiecamp Steady on the racing season hasn't finished yet!

Winter wheel / tyre day! 🛞 ❄️

This is sooo good x.com/f1trollmedia/s…
