@HWM_AstonMartin @A45Y_UK Such a shame - only 450 miles 🤦‍♂️. These cars deserve to be driven

@LUDENClassics @revslimiter I’ve got a tin of primer downstairs if any Audi driver needs it

@AndyatAuto @SMMT I’m amazed by the resilience of PHEV sales. I get that it might help people deal with range anxiety, but equally I’m sure I saw a statistic suggesting most PHEV owners rarely plug their car in (at which point it’s less economical than petrol).

Is it linked to company car tax?

@Biggies_MaIIs @Specsavers It does beg the question “what is the point of VAR?”

@TommyLYeah Just for balance and a bit of perspective - I think you would have taken that at the start of the season; new manager, losing a lot of players etc. As it is you’re challenging for European places

@LUDENClassics I was at Goodwood last weekend for the MM - and they were demonstrating the new Lanzante 95. I thought it was an electric car as it went around the track so quietly.

I think regulations have killed the sound of new cars; one reason why there’s a jump in prices for 355 and 458?

@talltim63 Congrats Tim

This is what I hate about UK politics.

Olly Robins testimony backs up Starmers version; confirms it wasn’t normal practice to share vetting information with ministers (so he didn’t).

@KemiBadenoch comment “this is devastating for PM”. Kemi just watch it first before commenting

@skitzomatic @allenanalysis If you think Ukraine has nothing to do with the US then you need to back to high school

@matty_prior @sniffpetrol To be fair that was a great episode 😉

@gus71v @LizWebsterSBF @dshensmith Hey Gus, stop trying to gaslight those of us who do live in London (and know that the “London is collapsing” isn’t true. And go look at the statistics instead

@EdwardJDavey Ed - please focus on real issues. Yours sincerely. The electorate

@jomickane @EdwardJDavey I assume you’re joking
