@sniffpetrol One for the Boring Car Trivia archives… Whilst the Matrix movies contain many interesting cars, the third instalment might be the most interesting. In one scene there is an early 911, an E Type and even a Bristol but most notably, parked up is a silver Rover 75!

It boggles my mind that anyone could claim there was any fault on the part of the cyclist. It actually concerns me that some people think that it’s ok to drive like this. But then I only have to drive for a short while to remember that driving standards are poorer than ever!

@sniffpetrol I quite like Marmite. Actually I love Marmite. I hate the old/current Juke. Somehow I doubt the new one will be like Marmite for me.

@FooseTV @petapixel I think that’s a fair thing to do

@A1GOY So very sad.

@autocar If only the interior was closer to the Honda E in charm and retro aesthetic

@LukeMiani You need to touch one to get it. I had time to kill yesterday so popped into my local Apple store. I picked up the Air and had a genuine wow moment. The images don’t convey the way it feels.

@MotoNutJob @sniffpetrol Heard the gear change was sloppy

[DAVID TILLYER @DavidTillyer]

@MotoNutJob @sniffpetrol I did…

@autocar I think the concerns over a K Series are somewhat over inflated. It does have a reputation for a reason but if well maintained and if you allow it to get up to temp, it will be reliable. My Elise just hit 100k miles and it’s been the most reliable car I’ve owned! 😬

@ViltroxOfficial Will this be available for Fuji XF?

@sniffpetrol Can’t think about the Gen-E without mentally putting on a Forest Gump voice!

@sniffpetrol I can’t stop looking at used I Paces… worked out an R5 lease through work would cost me approx £12600 over three years. If I spent the same on a used EV then every mile I did after three years is basically free motoring. Or is that the man maths talking!?

@A1GOY @hjwakerley I grew up on the back seat of a Thema. I can still smell the alcantara and glue!

This has @sniffpetrol @LateBrakeShow written all over it!!

More gems from Southern Italy 😍

Of course the only cars at the top of Mount Vesuvius were Panda 4x4s!!

The little @fiat Topolino looks perfect on the Amalfi coast 😍
