Must corner like it's on rails
World class sandbagging from the Aston Martin F1 team. Can’t wait for everyone’s surprise tomorrow when Newey unleashes the secret feature and Alonso sets Pole
Not exactly been a relaxing Saturday but we’re all fine
Been in and out of the shelter since first thing this morning. Booms overhead. But when the brave Iranian people take their country back from the oppressive regime that murders them and sponsored global terror for nearly 50 years the entire world will be a much better, safer place
The arrestee formerly known as Prince
Pretty positive is an understatement, Autocar absolutely raved about the Rapid, called it a budget Porsche. You're right, Skoda's pre-VW reputation had nothing to do with car journalists, and little to do with the cars, it was mostly populist anti-commie banter from comedians and tabloids
Got a bit carried away after creating that image of it...
Rendering of a dark green Mika Mino by Namiir Design, outside Buckingham Palace with a silver Aston Martin DB5 and black Range Rover behind it
Here you go. If you prefer then the sills and pillars can be coloured - maybe yellow for Lotus or orange for BRM
That song was recorded closer in time to the release of the movie than to today.
Rear edge of the door glass. The car is really low, makes sense to have the handles relatively high up on the door frame
One of its distinguishing features is the enhanced crash protection that the composite frame offers, so maybe. We’re also looking into a Kei-car version for Japan
Mika Mino L7 category urban runabout because why should a city microcar be boring
Public service announcement:
You need to press play on Trading Places at 22:31 to hear Eddie Murphy say “Merry New Year!” at midnight.
If you want to count down to midnight with When Harry Met Sally, press play at 22:34
I actually taught my boys about the sock gap when they were little
That cushions monologue was fantastic. Also the bit about how all human invention throughout history has been motivated by the desire to see women naked. The script was always so well written and the storytelling so cleverly done. Steven Moffat at his best
No, it didn’t work without Jeff but the first three series were faultless, not a single duff episode
Drop the Dead Donkey went off a bit but the earlier series when it was good it was very very good.
I’ll add Coupling to this list of brilliant comedies that kind of got forgotten
Behold, the hanging instructions that came with a sign I bought online recently
The Book “Faster” by Neal Bascomb
The René Dreyfus story absolutely needs to be a movie. Or even a miniseries. There’s a fabulous book that tells the whole story really well
Sad to hear that Chris Rea didn’t make it home for Xmas this year. He was a true car guy. Who else could have written a love song to a Ferrari?

@nirkahn.bsky.social It’s like that photo of someone loading luggage in the back of a 911.
FFS, they had one job
In the shadow of the terrible massacre of Jews celebrating Chanukah in Sydney today it is more important than ever to stand proud and be the light.
May the rest of the festival pass peacefully
Actually it was probably a composite photo back then. They’ll have photoshopped out a Toyota and pasted in a library shot of a Porsche and a sunset to make it classier. Doesn’t make it any less stupid
It really was a work of art. Knowing that the model was looking at the engine but deciding just to go with it
AI generates so much rubbish. I miss the old days like this when an actual professional photographer would take a photo of someone looking at a Porsche’s engine while holding an expensive weekend bag
I think that I have a vague recollection of seeing that. Would have been around 1982. I got a Marble Run. To be fair, a Tom Karen classic
He says he’s ok but that second impact was a big one and his steering column had already broke, the cockpit wasn’t a safe place by then. They’ll check him out properly
If you spin off where there are yellow flags and a car already in the barrier you deserve a penalty that affects your next race
It’s an unusual choice. I’ve already sent someone to find one for me
