Cars for the people

All this fuss about utility vehicles getting too big.

30 years later, I am also bigger, heavier and still white.

They were lovely cars. Very popular back in the day, too.

Video link to a new EV from Caterham of all people. Won’t be cheap, but is gorgeous and will be no slouch in terms of performance.

Some lovely cars there. I don’t recognise all of them, but I certainly recognise the yellow and white Holden – my first car was like that, in a glorious pink and grey colour combination. I improved the fuel consumption by about 20% by removing the sun visor, which also reduced the interior noise level by about the same amount.

Luckily, I do not own a Bentley.

And don’t want to take it flying at Niagra falls.

Taking my son to Springnats in Shepparton this weekend as he’s become a total car nut. I’ve never been to a Bogan & Burnouts Festival before, so hopefully it’s entertaining for a non car-fanatic.

Also, why is the Tesla Cybertruck so farking ugly?

Dutton will fix you up (BYO cigar)

Being brutally honest once the hooning starts probably not. But the time spent will be worth it

It’s ■■■■■■■ down here at the moment. Hopefully tomorrow is better.

We’re about an hour away…not Melbourne’s rain band though.

@OBITV will be copping it in about 15.

I’m in Shepparton at the moment. It’s passed now but we had about 30 minutes of continous thunder and lightning.

Went into Ferrari, THT Jr knows someone who works there, and we were supposed to just get something from them. Anyway, it was some kind of open day. All the wannabe owners are in there (including us).

When l worked in south Hangzhou 10 years ago, the Ferrari and Maserati dealer was a block away, directly across the road the Tesla dealer. The Ferrari dealer even had its own large green overhead road sign, the same type and size you seen on highways in Aus. Later on l discovered there were about a dozen different car dealerships within a 2 km radius, including Aston Martin.

That’s not even funny. You should be more considerate of those of us that do!

I considered buying a Ferrari, but it doesn’t fit my golf clubs!
