@MintyGts @PrattStuff Agreed, definitely a faff. Feels good to get stuck in though, I’m rubbish on the tools!

[Oli Hughes @AutoBant]

Finally got round to checking and removing the drain plugs behind the 981’s side vents. Not completely blocked, but by no means clear!

A big thanks to @PrattStuff for the virtual assist 👏🏼

Now to figure our why my stereo has no bass all of a sudden ��

I can count on one hand the amount of Vauxhalls I’ve taken a photo of…however seeing this super rare Sportshatch and Vectra Super Touring today was a treat.

Less than 20 of each on UK roads 👀

[Oli Hughes @AutoBant]

Found the the rarest car at #CarWeek 👌🏻

[Oli Hughes @AutoBant]

Just met Pete Brock, I can die happy now. Designer of the best car ever made (in my opinion) 😍

[Oli Hughes @AutoBant]

A proper pinch-yourself moment on Sunday, shooting our auction highlights on the circuit at Laguna Seca ☀️

I won’t be forgetting this anytime soon! #CarWeek

STOLEN - PLEASE SHARE

My brother had his distinctive burnt orange Toyota Hilux (VK23 ZYA) with off-road tyres and a mountain top cover stolen off his drive in Driffield, East Yorks last night. It’s also his 30th birthday today FFS!

Any sightings, please let me know!

[Oli Hughes @AutoBant]

Curious to know what @ObscureSupercar has to say. 🤔

[Oli Hughes @AutoBant]

Car Twitter, what is the one car you've always wanted to see in person, but it’s always eluded you?

For me it’s the Saleen S7.
One day.

The next owner should tint the windows to hide the roll-cage and go harass some 911 GT3s at Donnington 🏁

[PistonHeads @PistonHeads]

Auction ending soon: Hyundai i30N road-legal touring car.

With just 1,570 miles from new, 350bhp, and a manual gearbox, it's about as close as you'll get to driving a touring car home.

No Goodwood FOS for me this year (first time in 19 years!) but a drive out in the Porker certainly helps. Also spotted my dream car. Gentian Blue 992 GT3 Touring ☀️

[Oli Hughes @AutoBant]

Not quite LeMans Classic but a great weekend nonetheless 🧽🏁

[Oli Hughes @AutoBant]

Last minute call-up for Prom-Taxi🍻🪩

[Oli Hughes @AutoBant]

@joncoupland Still makes me nervous thinking about it

[Oli Hughes @AutoBant]

No prizes for guessing what country I’m in 😅 #FreedomMachine

[Oli Hughes @AutoBant]

@MrGWB71 Your RS3 fix could be easily achieved with a Golf R? For much less 🤔

You’ve for two exceptional drivers’ cars there, one of which is becoming an increasingly desirable investment. Future you might regret that.

[Oli Hughes @AutoBant]

@bombhead1977 @pcgb Right? I had no idea, hoping to visit again in July.

[Oli Hughes @AutoBant]

Cracking day at Harewood Speed Hillclimb with @pcgb ☀️

[Oli Hughes @AutoBant]

@Tankslider @epic_gobshite The irony was, it actually had super rare Ceramics fitted. Not far off the value of the car 👀

[Oli Hughes @AutoBant]

Absolutely I would.
