@Mel_Nichols @scottyn86 @theintercoolerx Thanks Mel for writing something special - this piece will live for years.

[Steve Saxty @SteveSaxty]

Well that was a nice surprise. Third time lucky, I was awarded RAC Book Of The Year on motoring books over £50. Thank you all…

@Mel_Nichols @BMW @StvCr @autocar I feel slightly bad that they occupied so many of @StvCr’s evenings though, but glad he enjoyed the journey.

[Mel Nichols @Mel_Nichols]

I saw @SteveSaxty’s remarkable and definitive books on @BMW design early and up close when I edited them. Now the 3-volume boxed set is shipping, it’s delightful to see that others, notably @StvCr, are equally impressed. @autocar 3 April 24

@IanCallum @elan_nick @renaultgroup I used to rock around Guildford in a green one for a while in the early 90s. I felt it was very cool. My neighbors were sadly less car literate.

@RavenscroftGBC I wrote that? It's better than my usual. And it's true.

[Steve Saxty @SteveSaxty]

They may be boxes of books to you. But to me they are the culmination of three years of work, OK it was a pleasure really, this is the first batch of "BMW by Design" 3-book sets being readied for their readers to receive this week. If you've bought one, thank you!

[Steve Saxty @SteveSaxty]

Lovely to see my work featured this month in a mag I've loved reading for years and one where @sniffpetrol rather rashly nominated me as his “favourite author” last month. Thanks everyone at @evomagazine - it was fun. We should do it again sometime.

[Steve Saxty @SteveSaxty]

I should be embarrassed, yes I am. SG SAXTY now owns two personal UK registration plates and lives on another continent. I hate myself too.

[Steve Saxty @SteveSaxty]

@IanCallum @sniffpetrol @au_tom_otive I too worked for JLR but showed better loyalty to Jaguar and never once drove a Rover Range - are they any good?

[Steve Saxty @SteveSaxty]

Thanks @SteveFowler for your review in @AutoExpress – it’s a delight, and a relief, to know that 2½ year of work paid off.

[Steve Saxty @SteveSaxty]

@jonhoneyball @Mel_Nichols It’ll be good, actually with Mel’s editing it will be great!

[Steve Saxty @SteveSaxty]

There is nothing like the pleasure of seeing the initial prototypes of a new book. Here’s the first handmade copy of BMW’s Hidden Gems - guess the cover car!

BMW by Design - Here’s my new book! https://t.co/3cIYLvuyWi via @YouTube

[Steve Saxty @SteveSaxty]

@sniffpetrol I bought it. I laughed. Maybe several times.

[Steve Saxty @SteveSaxty]

@LoveCarsSussex @autocar @revslimiter Sure. Just post it to me in New York.

[Steve Saxty @SteveSaxty]

If you're interested in how this memorably gruesome @Autocar test came about by then join Adam Gompertz of @revslimiter and me tomorrow night at 8pm. We'll talk about how Ford got into such a pickle with the Escort and redeemed it all with the Focus. https://t.co/d3dUHGuFdC

@elan_nick @Ford There’s some fun stories behind so many of those wheels. It was fun to write. Best one is the RS seven spoke was inspired by a Porsche 944 wheel, see if you can recall it.

[Steve Saxty @SteveSaxty]

@Jim_Holder That's so sad for readers, Haymarket, and you @Jim_holder to see change. But from change begins something new, you've done a great job Im told during difficult times and I wish you well with that next chapter.

[Steve Saxty @SteveSaxty]

@DeejDavid @sniffpetrol How was the hole?

[Steve Saxty @SteveSaxty]

@glenfieldman Enjoy Vol one and remember there’s another three to go in Vol Two if you do…
