Go buy my really nice Mazda 3 that I'll probably regret selling so that I can get an engagement ring (and probably sink lots of money into a stupid old BMW. But let's go for the romance first). pistonheads.com/buy/listing/17…

@tomnort_ @timoldland Oh nooooo - thanks

@timoldland @PHMattB Very true. Missed that myself 🫠

@PHMattB hi Matt, just a quick note for your Golf R Estate review, you mention the fact none of the SUV’s have an R Variant, the Touareg does. VW’s most powerful and expensive car on sale!

@PetrolTed Well yeah, quite! Just keen for this guy to claw back some cash if at all possible.

@PHMattB It’s been a sham for some years now.

Hello folks, long shot... Has anyone heard of any TVR progress? A deposit holder has contacted us as nobody is returning their messages/calls.

First go on new GT3 configurator probably won't be the last! I know a Touring is meant to be subtle, but couldn't resist this - it's SeanPeach after Sean Wotherspoon, some cool dude trainer designer. Added to PTS not long ago, it seems!

@dsgolson Me too!

Trying not to be too 'perfect, no notes' about this, but it's exactly how I'd do an 86 (when not tempted by supercharged silliness): NA tune, gold wheels, zorst, big brakes. Love it. PH auction soon! pistonheads.com/buy/auction/17…

FOR SALE! One of the nicest ones I've seen. And I've seen more than is probably healthy. Look at those seats!

@LeedsUrbex I've definitely heard some good stories like yours also! Tricky one.

@PHMattB Unbelievable! I have one that has been nothing short of brilliant for 3 years and almost 55k miles. Thinking of getting another one, whether it'll be as reliable though.

Available in the showroom! An #Honda #Civic #TypeR #FD2 with a difference... Amongst its modifications is a Rotrex Supercharger which helps give this FD2 a significant power hike, running 366 bhp! Price: torque-gt.co.uk/honda-civic-ty…

@ruttspeed Yikes!

@PHMattB Neighbour had 2 within two months. Both left on low loaders . Then etron for 2 months now has a polestar. Lost thousands

@SlyRenard Yeah they've been left behind a bit as a new EV. But we'd home charge almost all the time, and still think they drive/look great. Some decent ones at £20k or so by the looks of it!

@PHMattB I considered one but charging speed capability scores against the ipace ( max 100kw fast charge ) and real world range sub 200 miles might bother some folk. Look at ipace forums for the tales of woe around realistic charging speeds.

Ferrari California manual being auctioned soon - might be the only UK one!!!!! Would love to have a go. pistonheads.com/buy/listing/17…

@BuntyTwoPointOh I think Voodoo, will find out!

that's how you do an M3 Touring

@LUDENClassics @AntoineNivola Imagine how good it seems when you do like them 😀

@AntoineNivola @PHMattB I agree with you there, that is the best one I've seen.

@SincTheo cor!

@PHMattB I saw one on instagram that someone had ordered with silver wheels, clear glass and chrome trim around the windows. That one was amazing.

@someoneelse2011 Yeah! Don't think I've ever seen one in the UK

My work here is done - there's a Toyota Blade Master G for sale on PH. pistonheads.com/buy/listing/17…

@rrdurrant Cool! Yeah it looks absolutely dreamy.

@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…
