@denialvibes @markhughesF1 @classicretromod I bought one in 2000 when I was racing - a 1989 coupe in blue (how was it only 11 years old 🙈). Poor thing used to get rinsed on the way back from race weekends but loved it - good in the snow too! Only downside was the metal flaked like puff pastry...

I’d never driven an MR2 before today. It took me about three minutes to fall completely in love with this one, and then I drove it all day. Feature coming soon to @classicretromod

@Carsofglasgow1 Certain cars, definitely 👌

Anyone know of a yellow car enthusiast?

@A1GOY And this one stuck in my mind (as you can tell, I've been intrigued by it for ages!): youtu.be/qFDV5x2SACE?si…

@A1GOY Don't know if this is what you're after, but recall it from a while ago: media.landrover.com/news/2013/01/f…

Chums. A friend’s looking for examples of auto ad campaigns/launches that used projection mapping. Do any spring to mind?

@timpitt100 Did that almost one year ago - the ferry crew were very excited to see a UK Alpine, enjoy!

Aboard the ferry at Newhaven. I’m taking the A110 home to Dieppe for Alpine’s 70th birthday celebrations, along with the A390 reveal tonight.

@Nicola_Hume Definitely. But it's never lupus...

Is the series ‘House’ worth my time?

@A1GOY Just seen a monkey eating a coconut... 🐒🥥

Rather tired of seeing miserable news on the various feeds of a morning. Share something good that’s happened to you and brighten this joint up, will ya?

@autocar Always a personal favourite - great shooting from Barry Hayden, especially as I *might* have spun a few seconds later... 😁

Sliding into the weekend like... Do you have a favourite drift shot?

@AndyBellSDS @MattNealRacing Hmmm, might be after some new wheels! 🤔

@MattNealRacing Ooh, here you go @rrdurrant

Nice work Dunc & we’ve now developed a cool direct fit light weight Team Dynamics Pro Race LT wheel option for the A110 👍🏽😅

@tomwookieford Or Snetterton, if you're making a series about Senna...

Lincolnshire wolds… probably.

@AndyBellSDS @MattNealRacing Legends, I have even more respect than ever for what these amazing volunteers do every day 🙏

Still fancy it @MattNealRacing @rrdurrant ? 😳

@Thecarmagdriver Brings back very happy memories of a year ago 😊

One tank?

@alantaylorjones @TamiyaUK You'll have to give me a guide, my last effort was abysmal 🙈

For once, I'm painting a @TamiyaUK kit in boxart colours. Shame about the fly that just landed on the bonnet 🤦‍♂️

@AutoInfatuation For a few years we used to run three white ones on the Porsche GB fleet, purely for shuttling duties. They were 4 E-Hybrids. Spacious in the rear and different, but there was a lot of exhaust and road noise, plus the hatch meant practical boot space wasn't as great as it looked.

It’s a real shame that the Long Wheel Base 2nd Generation Porsche Panamera didn’t sell in higher numbers here in the UK 🇬🇧. When they do come up for sale they are either the V6 Petrol (of which I don’t really want) or the mental Turbo S e-Hybrid which I know is an utter rocket ship but the Hybrid bit worries me a little 🔋. This Turbo Executive has come up for sale with pretty much the perfect spec (except for the black alloys, they can get in the bin 🛞🚮) but I fear they won’t be quite as supple for the rear passengers as my S-Classes, my 7 series or especially the Maybach’s I’ve been looking at, despite being on full air suspension etc. Never owned a Porsche and I’m really trying hard to find a reason too, but having a young family and a big dog means a 911 is out of the question right now and my Wife has ruled the Cayenne out too 😂😭 autotrader.co.uk/car-details/20…

@timpitt100 We launched the 991 Speedster there in 2019. I made the airport shuttles drive down the SP94 as a nod to the Esprit sequence driven by the legend Roger Becker!

New Aston Martin Vanquish in Sardinia today. Staying at the Hotel Cala di Volpe, which – somewhat ironically – featured in ‘The Spy Who Loved Me’ (along with Roger Moore’s aquatic Lotus Esprit, but no Astons).

@PHMattB I remember bringing that very car into Mercedes-Benz World for display. It became one of the cars we displayed the longest and we were allowed to run it now and again. One of my all-time favourites, absolute cracker 👌

The E36 that isn't a BMW and is absolutely wonderful. Great story, too. pistonheads.com/buy/listing/17…

@teorichards @BicesterH 🙋‍♂️

@AndyBellSDS 27 years!!! 🧓

Here you go @rrdurrant .👍

Good job I'm not a football fan... onefootball.com/en/news/chelse…

Had the pleasure of announcing this onto the stage for its world premiere. Looks cracking in the metal and the interior is 👌. Drove the PHEV powertrain in another car, all I'll say is it means business...
