@CelticRB22 @hjwakerley That’s an ornament, not a car

@ron_eisele Brilliant photo
Unmatched pace of evolution

@tiff_tv there's no excitement when every pass is a boosted battery event or the car being overtaken is in re-charge mode
no late braking, no on the limit throttle controlled high speed cornering with the car absolutely on its limit
killing the goose that lays the golden eggs...

@challengerST @thenewarea51 The darkness helped

@de_havas What’s the 2026 equivalent of a 944?i.e. a 5-7 yo used sports car, useable every day, aspirational but realistically attainable for a young person a few years into their career?

[wandering scotsman @AsiaScot]

@de_havas Thanks 👍

@mechlandscape @RAF_Luton easy mistake to make, but it was a 1.6GL with rostyle wheels. the 2.0l Ghia was for the base commander

@AutoPap 21-25 is pretty good for the size and performance
Compares well to the 28-30 I get from my 57-plate puma engined "real" defender!! (107K miles on the clock and counting)

@AutoPap what's the real-world, real-use mpg of an Octa? I've heard single figures, but suspect that's BS

[wandering scotsman @AsiaScot]

@AutoPap so the BMW one, not one of the ingenium ones
Maybe JLR should have outsourced all powertrains to BMW

@GbhvfRon @CcibChris From a Canberra operating from @RAF_Luton of course….

@highvoltageme @joncoupland from the wings, its a 924

[wandering scotsman @AsiaScot]

@GhostOfFrederic @joncoupland is that the one next to my Daytona .....

[wandering scotsman @AsiaScot]

@joncoupland 924 porsche, lane 1 heading away from the camera, behind the capri with the open sun roof

@theintercoolerx @Raitziger and an air-cooled 911 to keep it company and use on dry days

[wandering scotsman @AsiaScot]

@theintercoolerx @Raitziger correct answer
BTdi 320hp version with cross-climate tyres
perfect for living in the Scottish countryside
40+mpg and plenty of grunt to overtake when needed, tons of load space and extra clearance when there's snow

@TheBishF1 @Motor_Sport he was (& still is) cool
heart on sleeve, car at the ragged edge, zero BS, up there with the very best
