Any friends of @GregMVF4 who find themselves at Goodwood Circuit, there are now two wonderful benches either side of the track towards the chicane that you can visit and take a load off - or as one bench says “Sit On Me - You Know You Want To”. That’s Greg’s humour to a tee. 😆🥰

@LUDENClassics New toy day for Frank. Brave boy.

Got my copilot back from the vets. All fine, not entirely sure what the lump was until tests come back but it was fluid based and on his tear duct so possible chance of reoccurrence. He's happy enough, certainly happier than when I dropped him off this morning, most likely because he's had all of the vets and nurses cooing over him all day. One of them was convinced to take him out in the sun multiple times. Very happy to have him back

@R19NP @astonmartin Stunning colour!

St James's Square spot of the day. The paint in the sunshine, the Oxford Tan / Sahara interior and the spec in general 👌🏽 Oh and THAT numberplate 😎

Morning! Sun’s out! 🌞

@HA11NNH Gatsby giving you a grilling?

Mum Why are you in an oven 😂😂😂😂

@michaelmc3 Sold in 2010 for £94k, so probably worth at least £150k now when adjusted for inflation etc.

@markjohnoneill Wonder how much that plate would be worth?

Henley snaps.

Cheers! Beautiful evening.

@LUDENClassics Have you FINALLY bought a Pantera?

@markjohnoneill No, but I do love that car!

I've broken one of the most important rules of buying cars and bought one unseen from an auction I've never dealt with. Can you guess what it is?

@markjohnoneill Certainly is! And yellow 😉

@LUDENClassics Make a cracking sound, especially with a Tubi exhaust system. Loudest car I’ve ever driven on the road.

The more time goes on, the more tempting a 360 is. Never used to like them

Happy Heavenly Birthday mate @GregMVF4 - miss the ridiculous banter! Scrolled through some of our messages and spat out my coffee in stitches. Wouldn’t be the first time. One of the nicest, smartest and funniest chaps I’ve ever had the pleasure to call a friend.

@R19NP @AstonMartinWork @fmsupercarclub Nice! Love that DB5 Shooting Brake!

First outing with my #FMSC family on Saturday to the incredible @AstonMartinWork! Just wow! HUGE thank you for having us guys, some seriously cool and special cars. Drive back at sunset into the darkness with the Spyder (roof down) was EPIC 😎 @fmsupercarclub

@realtrumanshow Haha. My Golf.

@markjohnoneill did the neighbour want him parking his golf on their drive ?

Cousin’s popped round 😎

@de_havas My parents briefly had a black X-reg Mk1 Golf GTi. Remember my Dad spinning it after failing to get up a snowy hill and clipping a humpback bridge. My Mum had several XR3i's. My Dad had company cars but would always buy my Mum cars that I think he secretly wanted!

The late 70s & early 80s saw the arrival of the “Hot Hatches.” The Golf GTi and the Ford XR3i were early competitors in the field:- others joined. Our family had a couple of 1800 GTis. The GTi was a complete revelation. A quick car for the time! I had such fun in these 2 cars!

@de_havas What a lovely machine! On 10 inch wheels too?

@markjohnoneill I have great memories of our family 1275GT Mini. It had a great performance having had some engine modifications. Sadly I simply wore it out! In the end I was pouring oil in:- until my late father decided it was time to move on!

Sunday spots. Wave from a Porsche meet regular in his 993 RSR and can’t remember the last time I saw a 1275GT Clubman.

@El_Choppah Yeah, Kev has quite an enviable garage!!!

@markjohnoneill Good spots - follow him on Insta. Proper petrol head

@djmhughesuk @MichelinTyres I never found them to be anything other than terrible during the cold month. No grip and traction control always triggering. Even my wife complained. No issues in the dry summer months.

@markjohnoneill @MichelinTyres I used to run Pirellis on my previous GTi and always liked them, but never had any cracking. Now run Goodyear Eagle F1 Assy 6 on my current german-wip (Gti)

Right, time to get these changed. Original Pirelli P Zeros that came with car. 5 years old and rears are cracking. New set of @MichelinTyres PS4 S going on!
