@SimonCarGuy Nice to meet you today and thanks for talking my son and I round the cars. All the best with the new venture!

Big news this morning! #Microsoft

[Satya Nadella @satyanadella]

I’m super excited to have you join as CEO of this new group, Sam, setting a new pace for innovation. We’ve learned a lot over the years about how to give founders and innovators space to build independent identities and cultures within Microsoft, including GitHub, Mojang Studios, and LinkedIn, and I’m looking forward to having you do the same.

@roadratmagazine Delighted that my @roadratmagazine subscriber issue arrived today. Had to order the poster too - the F40 is an icon for me. I'm an 80s child... As ever, the mag is a beauty!

@martinspain And yes the Elise will rattle, but you will be grinning from ear to ear so won't care. Better for track days than the Cayman too, light weight wins.

[Alex Faupel @ajfaupel]

@martinspain Have had my 987.2 Cayman S manual for 10 years, can't beat it as an all rounder, esp with short shift kit & sports exhaust. Had an 07 Elise S before that, epic car. Based on what you've said about your usage, I'd go Elise- I needed an everyday car so changed. No wrong answer tho!

#ENGvIND Kate Cross! Mound stand lower, block 8, row 20, seat 159 #LoveLords

[Alex Faupel @ajfaupel]

@WoodstockOne @AutoPap This one is Verde Visconti, which often looks quite dark, but in the sun really pops and looks closer to Montreal. Montreal is stunning too! 👍

@Seatz37 Enjoy the read and your holiday - funnily enough the latest Strike is out on 30/8, pre-ordered it last night!

[Alex Faupel @ajfaupel]

@Seatz37 Ah yes, seen the adverts for that. A good cast! A further recommendation would be the Strike novels by Robert Galbraith (aka JK Rowling) - you may have seen the series on BBC.

[Alex Faupel @ajfaupel]

@RoadworkUK Love mine (green over tan). Sure, a 340i would be lovely, but these are just so pretty, and light too, which really adds to how they drive.

[Alex Faupel @ajfaupel]

@Seatz37 I imagine that might be off to Singer perhaps? Might as well start with a good one if you're going all out I guess!

[Alex Faupel @ajfaupel]

@sniffpetrol @Carpervert re "Alonso Fernando" - do you remember his previous foray into advertising? So bad... (car is still on sale though as you've pointed out!) https://t.co/T0fUAC8WEo

[Alex Faupel @ajfaupel]

@trent_dan Couldn't agree more @trent_dan. It's something a bit special in a sea of dullness. The driving position is spot on, the ride/handling balance is lovely & the infotainment isn't a stuck on iPad. And just look at it! Handles the day to day family stuff, whilst feeling special.

[Alex Faupel @ajfaupel]

@Only9built @Andante_Legato Definitely. My green and tan Giulia Veloce - classical combo.

[Alex Faupel @ajfaupel]

@ItsTomLynch Nice. It's a fantastic family car - the 50%+ extra range makes it even better.

[Alex Faupel @ajfaupel]

@ItsTomLynch Guessing this has the newer updated battery? We have a MY20 Inscription Pro and love it, but that extra range would make it even more ideal.

[Alex Faupel @ajfaupel]

@AlfaRomeoUSA Visconti Verde for the win!
