I adored that car when it was rallying. Used to be about the only thing I’d look for in newspapers at that time! (I also mistakenly thought the plate was BAT, as in bat out of hell but 🤷🏻♂️)

Love how the definition of “ultra low profile” has changed!
Amazing, very jealous! Just given the realities of, you know, 90% of car use being pretty normal, I think I’d take a tyre that was less impressive on the limit if it was more comfortable most of the time vs something more extreme performance orientated. Have a great time!
Very interesting. Somewhat absurdly, would love to know how they compare to the PS4 from a comfort perspective when you’ve got some miles done.
I wonder if it’s about connection? Much easier to trash an anonymous franchise in a place that you may never come back to, than a local restaurant? Also… airport restaurants are just generally average and always a little slower than you want them to be!
Not a big rig, that’s for sure!
Oof. I’m sorry to read Findlay. Are you able to rest properly. I don’t know you personally but it’s often so key to being able to feel positive and take things on. I always remember that Sandhurst deliberately uses tiredness as a way to make life as challenging as possible.
The Bart, the…
Retired lawyer but active musician?
I’ve always - and still - wanted one of these. I’d also love to take a Volvo C30 and put the Yamaha V8 in the back just like this!
Me too. Almost everything after the mid-90’s I find completely unmoving…
“Choosing to focus on their 2026 merch”
I think a good chunk of people never actually grow up, they just get older…
Aware of the brand, certainly, but have *never* paid attention to what any of the models are!
Oooh, Lagonda?
It looks like a TT fell from the ceiling and landed in the Jaguar.
👏
“A place for everything and everything in its place…”
Going to be quite lopsided, architecturally speaking…
Having taken the lazy option and watched the documentary, the role David Lochridge played is extraordinary. A real credit to actual values based leadership and professionalism. A shame that his pockets weren’t as deep as Rush’s - things would be very different otherwise.
I just watched the documentary and other than “holy cow” the thing that they don’t draw a straight enough line on is that failure is *built in* to the design. Listening to those fibres going one by one, like grating a block of cheese. That equation only works one way…
Quite proud of getting the model first time out but goodness only knows how you’re supposed to know the year…!
I think @thealso.bsky.social had a VW he really enjoyed but not sure if it was still brand new at the time, even if it was from the future…
I have to assume that’s an evergreen joke for every class…
Got the car on the first try… completely flunked the year! (Although not sure how you’d definitively identify it vs its twin some good luck there too)
While simultaneously having the most resolved front end of all current BMW designs. Grateful for small mercies!?
I shall refuse to be lit any other way from here on.
The carpenter is stunning!
I’d argue that Brosnan had the worst best bond: worst script ratio.
Point taken! Much like boats in that respect. Always better to have a friend that has one, rather than to be the friend that has one…
Metaphors aside, that’s probably the youngest Ferrari I’d really want to own.
@thealso.bsky.social bait…
The more I look at the front the more it looks like it might have shared the stage with the Avus concept
God bless the sorts of people that not only think this way but then have the skills to pull it off!
This looks unhappily expensive
Still making great estates, but this has to be a strong contender for peak Volvo?
I agree - and probably mentally better than endlessly chasing faults bit by bit…
Having this fun right now with a Disco 4. Dealer seems convinced that everything is ok with suspension and bearings… 🙃
Quite pleased with that! Year is almost impossible… can’t remember what happened last week, never mind that far back! Cardle 2/5 🟢 🟢 🔴 🟢 🟢 🟢 www.playcardle.com
But it does it have the baseball glove leather inside…?
I got overtaken by a Golf TDI on the way into San Francisco this evening. Can’t be many of those about!
It’s so bonkers that Jag hasn’t been more successful. What more do people want!?
I don’t really understand why the new Defender seems so inflexible when VW seems able to get 57 different products off the same chassis. Has modular building stopped being a thing?
The wheels give the date away (I believe)
Ooh, has Silicon Valley invented the service station…?
I’d watch a podcast on that. 😉
Ah, Zurich Calais airport…?
Keep a look out folks.
His grave has had a pretty eventful time of it too!
I don’t disagree, but my point is that, however sad it is, one shouldn’t necessarily feel singled out by it.
Here in NYC, it’s standard procedure for any sort of event or road closure - marathons, street festivals, VIP’s…
Very good!
Quite a niche crossover! (And I don’t mean the car, specifically…)
Nothing to see here, comrade.
There seems to be a second airframe in deep storage, so between that, the remains of the old one and sharing parts with the 124 it *might* be possible.
Tell you what, those quick-clear windscreens look like they’ve got worse…
I found this recently but not from Ocean’s 12. Such a bizarre but cracking track!
We’re not to be trusted with nice things… 😕
Game of Thrones!
Fairly sure I saw that (or its twin) at YYZ yesterday evening.
That’s lovely isn’t it. God bless physical media.
30’s hot 20’s nice 10 is chilly Zero’s ice
Makes sense! I think I’m bilingual in this case. Wasn’t aware I actually needed to be trilingual 😬
Good of them to include the name on the side! I had the manufacturer and year nailed first time out but weirdly not the model. Hadn’t actually heard the model name before…
Handsome car, name aside!
Just extraordinary. I read his brother was on the same flight unfortunately. Unfathomably heartbreaking.
Can’t move for them in NYC! The operators apparently were able to buy a bunch of spare parts and are even fabricating their own. Wonder how long they’ll need to keep them on the road to make it worth their while.
Why? Does our Lord and saviour prefer to swap cogs himself?
Can’t move for them in NYC now. More common than a Prius!
I’ve never really understood the flag deal. On the one it’s sacred cloth to which folks pledge allegiance but it’s also… underwear?
Briggs & Stratton flyer? Not sure what the benchmark for “good” is!
Good knowledge! Very kitsch for Jaguar in the chrome.
Are those 300C wheels? Look familiar but not Jaguar OEM…?
Such a fundamentally pleasing design.
Ruffles are weirdly good for a conventional crisp. Do enjoy a Funyun though!
It’s been a rough season down at the Haas garage…
I want the new Morgan more than anything else. Never really *wanted* one before but it really is just doing its own thing and brilliantly.
A little annoying to guess one of its badge engineered twins first and then have to cycle through the variants!
Amazing, thank you!
Lovely thing. Wonder how many survive.
Off to an interview without tea or biscuits?
Omega delivery van 👌
This is it, the peak - nothing will top this!
Much better!
It’s extremely Lego - from the days before they’d build more custom parts. I can see exactly which bits the architect must have built his model from.
The Roadmaster really got the better end of the naming deal there
Would love to see that hooning sideways down a gravel track in a Welsh Forest 🙂
It just feels increasingly like designers need to learn when to put the pen down. More isn’t always more!
Unreasonably cool to have a pair of them!
So cool. Can’t remember the name of my favourite one now. It was very clean and slightly retro. Loved the mini-player it had too.
Local boy according to the reg! 🙂
I have many, many photos that are a variation on this!
😬
I’m not sure what you’re suggesting about Comrade Bradski here?
Makes sense. Although it would be very James Bond to be completely clean for 3 years at home while causing pure international carnage for 2 years abroad!
Boo. Is it a possibly negotiable term? Seems quite a niche requirement?
