And these are the people who tend to utterly ignore a check engine light anyway. Or the 'red genie lamp' light. Or the blue smoke. Or the funny noise from the brakes. Until something goes 'clang' and the car won't go.

I drive an Rx-8. It's too much fun for me too care. And it's not 'horrible' if you bother to pay attention to it. Unfortunately, very few people in this country do.

Soon to be featured on a mural in Belfast.

Now playing

Small microburst? Something really hammered that thing into the runway.

So long as it doesn't start listening to Incubus we're ok

The Santorum Special?

I watched this and thought "I'd like to go to sea, it looks exciting".

I recently had the pleasure of resurrecting and using a 40 year old rangefinder camera. I'm a technology buff rather than a photography buff as such and it was a shame to see it left sitting there unused, so I brought it out and put it to work, doing with it what I'd normally do with a cameraphone at a local

110bhp is still more power than the car I drive today. And that's much heavier and French.

100 miles a day is probably lightweight use at a constant speed with everything up to working temperature so the wear and tear will be negligible. It's done a lot of miles sure but it's had an easy life over them, with most of the wearing components replaced in the meantime.

Motor tax. Fuel duty. Carbon tax. Insurance increases. VAT. So much tax it's not even funny.

On Number 3... the Nitrous Oxide thing. If I recall correctly, Gran Turismo 4 did feature nitrous oxide with limited bottle capacity.

Welp, that explains why the A330 I flew home on had a ground speed of over 720mph at times....

Another disagreement on the Hummer H1. H2 or H3 maybe, but at least the H1 had the proper pedigree and could do what its looks promised.

I'm 6'4 My knees are already jammed into the seat back as it is... please don't try and recline - or for the matter repeatedly bash the seat back when it doesn't recline - it fucking hurts.

I don't care about the console. I care about it becoming a missile bouncing around the cabin at 160kph in the event of an accident.

I wish I'd known this 6 months ago when I booked the tickets.... due to fly there in a few hours. Ummm...

There's a reason many airlines ban it from flying. Can you imagine a can of it rupturing in the sealed environment of an airliner cabin?

Fog screws with your perceptions of speed and distance. Thought I'd felt the car slow down so I touched the throttle to even it out.... when I had infact been going downhill.

Looks to be very out of date.
