@QuentinWillson was a phenomenal journalist and broadcaster. His voice was absolutely perfect for television - talent, passion, knowledge and soul for all things cars. A consummate professional and thoroughly decent chap, Thank you for everything Mr Willson - we will miss you! 🙏

@AutoInfatuation One for you! The colour combination is incredible! https://t.co/6IeahxJ74M

@BBCBreaking Such sad news. George was an exceptional journalist - a pioneer with an unmistakable voice, one of the best in the business. A true inspiration to many people in the field. May he rest in peace.

Remembering Queen Elizabeth II - an incredible woman and Monarch who has left behind a fantastic legacy. To commemorate her sad passing, some great pics of her at the wheel. She loved her cars (especially her old Land Rover Defender!) and loved driving. Rest In Peace Ma'am ❤️

@thecarbloke Good for you matey - Be proud of who you are and if people can’t accept it, they’re not worth knowing! 🏳️‍🌈🌈

@SangeetaITV @FDinenage A legend in broadcasting on and off screen. I will seriously miss not seeing him presenting along with you in the evenings on Meridian. I’ve grown up watching him and even had the pleasure of speaking to him on the phone once.

@Scrof Fab choice! It’s so nice going for a walk there - can’t beat being by the sea 🌊

[Aidan Rennie-Jones @AidanRJ]

@Scrof Lee-on-the-Solent by chance?

[Aidan Rennie-Jones @AidanRJ]

@mctreckmeister I do the same with my MK1 MX-5, wouldn’t feel right with anything but Yokohama tyres all round!

Received an early #ValentinesDay gift from my girlfriend - the amazing Bacon Naan Roll kit from @Dishoom Absolutely delicious and very fun making it 👨‍🍳👌This is why I love her - she knows me so well!

@torquespeak That’s crazy and so rude! A year ago a Fiat main dealer in London copied my photos of the Abarth 124 Spider from a review I did and used them to advertise a car! Livid, I phoned and asked for the MD - had to tell him to remove them as I did not give my permission!

@AmazonUK once again showing how wasteful they are when it comes to packaging! Why on earth does a small rear window wiper need a box this size?!

[Aidan Rennie-Jones @AidanRJ]

Here’s a @ChodSpot for you all - a tank like 1986 Volvo 240 saloon with just 107,000 on the clock. A very elderly couple got in it and I like to think they’ve owned it from new (excuse the rubbish pictures, didn’t realise there was something on the lens)

@ListerLawrence You’ve no idea how jealous I am! Have wanted one of these for so long! Excellent investment sir👌👍

[Aidan Rennie-Jones @AidanRJ]

And this ladies and gentlemen is why you never buy a car from a ‘Car Supermarket’ - chances are it’ll be dodgy as hell! Just look at the state of it! Clearly been in a prang and bodged!

So it’s good riddance to the worst US president in living memory - a tangerine faced buffoon who spouted lies, spread hatred, was an embarrassment wherever he went and above all caused utter misery across America. #ByeByeTrump

[Aidan Rennie-Jones @AidanRJ]

@ThePollitt I did exactly the same thing the other night! Saw it sat there and just had to buy it! Tesco by chance?

[Aidan Rennie-Jones @AidanRJ]

@theseoldcars And they want more than £23k for that monstrosity!? Instead, you could have a very nice used Mercedes SL, a Porsche 911 convertible or a Jag XK Cabriolet among others - boggles the mind!

[Aidan Rennie-Jones @AidanRJ]

@FrontSeatPhil I’m going to throw this into the mix - Volvo S80 D5. Has all the kit and could be on budget with some haggling! https://t.co/pxQZKpAzpU

Not the worst view to wake up to - this 1983 #Mercedes Mercedes 500 SEL is owned by my girlfriends neighbours. The interior is tan velour! Properly period, especially with the two tone green exterior. One of 5 classic Mercs he owns so parking must be tricky in Wimbledon
