@MotoClark I have spent quite a lot of today looking at second-hand Mulsannes. I may need taking into protective custody for a while.

Meet SWA’s new pool car - the ex-press express! Congrats to @BahnstormerTom for guessing it right away, and @SKODAUK_Media for leaving it tantalisingly parked just outside the window during our last meeting at Blakelands! A manual vRS estate. In Royal Green. Perfect!

Third clue to the new SWA pool car being collected today: it’s a manual. So that’s a green estate car with a manual gearbox. Any more guesses?

Some interesting replies already. I’ll announce the winner(s) at the end. Second clue: it’s an estate.

This time tomorrow, we’ll be picking up Samuelson Wylie’s new pool car. And I have to admit that I’m rather stupidly excited about it. Anyone fancy a guessing game? The first clue is: it’s green.

@au_tom_otive It’s a very fine thing. An LWB in Burgundy with a ‘Bennsport’ livery is on my Christmas list.

I suspect no-one has suggested this as a four-car garage before, but actually …

@au_tom_otive Very sadly, it went back when its two-term finished. The ID Buzz and the Cayenne (one of four) are just with us for Goodwood. The Polestar is off doing its thing at MIRA today.

@bensamuelson What happened to the Taycan? Replaced by the ID. Buzz?

Respect to Jeremy Hunt, who held his seat (just) but is out as Chancellor: this is a decent speech

If anyone is in touch with the pilot doing circuits in a #spitfire out of I guess @BlackpoolAir this afternoon and could ask them to do their 180 degree turn a little to the west and a little lower please, I would appreciate it. Popping smoke (OK, lighting a bonfire) now …

The whole @SamuelsonWylie team, most of all Anna, has fallen in love with a stray on the edge of the desert in Morocco. Call out to the Twitter hive-mind: does anyone know what ‘Sahara’ needs in terms of jabs and quarantine so we can go back and get her? #BringSaharaHome

I love meetings where the Head of Comms calls a halt half way through and takes you out into the car park to show you a fast estate that looks as good as this. And it’s manual too. Yay or nay?

When you park up, walk away and turn around. Every time. 😍 #Skoda #Octavia #vRS #RS

Bloody hell … There’s some pretty heroic stuff going on in Iceland this morning in order to save the earthmoving equipment they need to build ramparts to divert the flow of lava from today’s eruption.
